Question

What is the disease burden of the major risk factors globally?

Answer

Rationale

Global Burden of Disease Study 2010

Data from the study

Instructions

• Download the data from this page as csv
• Change names of columns: Causes of disease or injury -> Response; Measurement -> Unit; Value -> Result. Move Result to the rightmost column.
• Upload the csv to Opasnet Base using OpasnetBaseImport to table "GBD by risk factor" and unit "several". (This is for archiving purposes only: the latter tasks may be easier directly from the csv file.)
• Pick only rows with Unit = DALY per 100000.
• Sum over causes of disease so that you get one value for each risk factor.
• Go to Wikidata and suggest that "disease burden" is taken as a new property. When the property is available,
• go to each Item of the risk factor and add property disease burden to that item. Include qualifiers Global, Both sexes, Year 2013, all ages, all causes. (Find out what properties are available)
• Make references to the link above, the IHME institute, this article, and secondarily to this Opasnet page. Remember to put date of entry.
• These are the risk factors of the GBD2010 study. Before you start the work, add the name of Wikidata item to the rows, so that we know what should be done. Also find a link to the right Wikipedia page.
