- Disability Adjusted Life Years - an overview - ScienceDirect
Disability-Adjusted Life Years (DALY) Disability-adjusted life years (DALY) have been proposed by the World Bank and the WHO as a measure of the global impact of disease on individual illness status DALY combines information about morbidity and mortality and is expressed in terms of numbers of healthy years lost
- The evolution of the disability-adjusted life year (DALY)
Researchers aiming to create national or subnational DALY estimates and those who use the DALY for decision making would benefit from having access, in one place, to a complete set of information about the assumptions underlying current and past methods and the equations used to operationalize these assumptions

As exposure to contaminants may also cause health loss, DALY was used in a number of studies for quantifying the impacts of environmental pollution (Fewtrell et al , 2003, Prüss-Üstün et al , 2003, Dorota et al , 2006, Kim et al , 2011, Ragas et al , 2011a, Ragas et al , 2011b, Xiao et al , 2012a, Xiao et al , 2012b, Wei et al , 2012, Machdar et al , 2013), thus leading to a new paradigm of

The major debut of the DALY in the World Bank's World Development Report 1993 introduced applications of the measure toward both ends Various revisions of the GBD have continued to use DALYs as the main unit of account for assessing the relative magnitude of health losses associated with various diseases, injuries, and risk factors, with the

The similarities and differences between the QALY and DALY measures (with a special emphasis on whether there is an impact from using the latter) have previously been discussed (e g , Sassi, 2006, Airoldi and Morton, 2009, Morton, 2010) Our results add new insights to this discussion

The disability-adjusted life year (DALY) is a summary measure of population health that accounts for both mortality and nonfatal health consequences DALYs were first developed for the primary purpose of quantifying the global burden of disease, expressed in terms of the relative magnitude of losses of healthy life associated with different

The DALY are composed of the years of life lived with disability (YLD) and the years of life lost (YLL; GBD 2019 Diseases and Injuries Collaborators, 2020) In a prevalence approach, for example, YLD are estimated by multiplying the prevalence estimation of a specific disease by its respective disability weight ( DW ; Mulatya and Ochieng, 2020 )

DALY was developed by WHO and World Bank to quantify disease burden and injury on human populations in the Global Burden of Disease Study (Murray, 1994, Murray, 1996) As a disease burden indicator, DALY combines the estimation of time lived with disability and time lost due to premature mortality with adjustment by a set of social preference
