Summary 

The Global Burden of Disease Study 2017 (GBD 2017), coordinated by the Institute for Health Metrics and Evaluation (IHME), estimated the burden of diseases, injuries, and risk factors for 195 countries and territories, and at the subnational level for a subset of countries.

Estimates for incidence, prevalence, and years lived with disability (YLDs) are available from the GBD Results Tool. Estimates are available by age and sex for 354 causes for 1990-2017. Select tables published in The Lancet in November 2018 in "Global, regional, and national incidence, prevalence, and years lived with disability for 354 diseases and injuries for 195 countries and territories, 1990–2017: a systematic analysis for the Global Burden of Disease Study 2017" are also available for download via the “Files” tab above.
