Zusammenfassung:This publication provides a comprehensive assessment of the health of the world's population in 2004. It provides a framework for integrating the available information on mortality and health in populations to assess the comparative importance of diseases and injuries in causing premature death, loss of health and disability in all regions of the world. This report draws upon the databases of the World Health Organization and information provided by member states to provide detailed estimates of premature mortality, disability and loss of health for 135 causes by age and sex for the world as a whole, for regions of the world, and for countries grouped by average income per capita.--Publisher's description.
