Leading 20 Level 3 causes of global prevalence for 1990, 2007, and 2017, with percentage change in number of cases and all-age and age-standardised rates for each sex
Causes are connected by lines between time periods; solid lines are increases and dashed lines are decreases. For the time periods 1990–2007 and 2007–17, three measures of change are shown: percentage change in the number of cases, percentage change in the all-age prevalence rate, and percentage change in the age-standardised prevalence rate. Communicable, maternal, neonatal, and nutritional diseases are shown in red; non-communicable causes in blue; and injuries in green. Statistically significant changes are shown in bold. COPD=chronic obstructive pulmonary disease. STIs=sexually transmitted infections.
