Case burdens of different health responses. Case burden is calculated as the product of disease-specific disability weights and disease durations

Response	DALYs per case	Description
Tooth defect	0–0.12	disability weight 0.001 and duration 60 a (years) with 100% uncertainty. For comparison, IHME gives disability weight 0 for asymptomatic caries and 0.006 for mild other oral disorders with symptoms [43].
Cancer	19.7 (17.8–21.8)	based on breast cancer, from IHME [44]
Vitamin D intake	0.0001–0.01	disability weight 0.001 and duration 1 a with 100-fold log-uniform uncertainty
TWI 2001	0.0001–0.01	disability weight 0.001 and duration 1 a with 100-fold log-uniform uncertainty
TWI 2018	0.0001–0.01	disability weight 0.001 and duration 1 a with 100-fold log-uniform uncertainty
Infertility	0–5	disability weight 0.1 and duration 50 a with 100% uncertainty. See also text. Here we used a clearly higher disability weight than IHME (0.008) [43].
Child’s IQ	0.11 (95% CI 0.06–0.16)	Mild intellectual disability (IQ < 70) has disability weight 0.043 (95% CI 0.026–0.064) based on IHME [43]. This is scaled to one IQ point with duration 75 a.
