Figure 3. Change in DALYs for GBD level 3 causes.

Figure 3

Increasing and decreasing global DALYs for GBD level 3 causes from 1990 to 2005 (A) and 2005 to 2013 (B). Within each tree map, the size of the rectangle for each cause is proportional to the magnitude of the decrease or increase in DALYs for each cause. Dark shading show statistically significant changes and light shading shows changes that are not significant. Unmarked boxes represent causes for which the decrease or increase was less than 1 000 000 DALYs. Table 1 and the appendix (p 4) contains numerical values for each cause.
