Summary 

The GBD Study 2010 estimated the burden of diseases, injuries, and risk factors globally and for 21 regions for 1990 and 2010. The study was implemented as a collaboration of Institute for Health Metrics and Evaluation (IHME) as coordinating center, University of Queensland, Harvard School of Public Health, Johns Hopkins Bloomberg School of Public Health, University of Tokyo, Imperial College London, and WHO.

This dataset provides results for the burden of disease and injury in the United Kingdom. Metrics provided are deaths, years of life lost (YLLs), years lived with disability (YLDs), and disability-adjusted life years (DALYs). The results were published in The Lancet in March 2013 in "UK health performance: findings of the Global Burden of Disease Study 2010."
