These data were collected as part of the Improving Methods to Measure Comparable Mortality by Cause project, funded by Australia's National Health and Medical Research Council (NHMRC). Verbal autopsy (VA) interviews were collected using the Population Health Metrics Research Consortium (PHMRC) shortened questionnaire on electronic tablets. Data was was collected from three sites: Matlab, Bangladesh; Kalutara, Sri Lanka; and Bohol, Philippines. The datasets correspond to the closed response and open response sections for each of the three sites.

All "open narrative" portions of the VAs were parsed for individual words or stems, which are included as variables in the final dataset, to remove any potentially identifying information in that portion of the interview. Variables that were analyzed as "health care experience" in past research are identified in the codebook.

One dataset provides number of deaths and mortality rates for 187 countries, 21 regions, and globally by age group and sex, for 1970, 1980, 1990, 2000 and 2010. The other provides the probabilities of dying between the ages of 15 and 60 (45q15), the probabilities of dying between birth and age 5 (5q0), and mean ages of death for the same geographies and years, and by sex. The results were published in The Lancet in December 2012 in "Age-specific and sex-specific mortality in 187 countries, 1970-2010: a systematic analysis for the GBD Study 2010."
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 the disability weights with uncertainty intervals for 220 unique health states used to estimate non-fatal health outcomes in the GBD 2010 Study. The data were published in The Lancet in December 2012 in the paper “Common values in assessing health outcomes from disease and injury: disability weights measurement study for the Global Burden of Disease Study 2010.”
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 four metrics with uncertainty intervals for 291 diseases and injuries: deaths, years of life lost (YLLs), years lived with disability (YLDs), and disability-adjusted life years (DALYs) by region, age, and sex. The results were published in The Lancet in December 2012 in "Global and regional mortality from 235 causes of death for 20 age groups," "Years lived with disability (YLDs) for 1160 sequelae of 289 diseases and injuries 1990-2010," and "Disability-adjusted life years (DALYs) for 291 diseases and injuries in 21 regions, 1990-2010."
IHME research published in PLOS Medicine in October 2013, "Mortality in Iraq Associated with the 2003-2011 War and Occupation: Findings from a National Cluster Sample Survey by the University Collaborative Iraq Mortality Study," provides estimates of all cause mortality from 2001 to 2011. The files include data collected by two stage cluster sampling and data analysis source code used to produce estimates.
IHME research provides estimates on the discrepancies between calculated and reported changes in body weight and obesity prevalence between 2008 and 2009 among repeated cross-sections of US adults participating in the Behavioral Risk Factor Surveillance System (BRFSS). Results of the study were published in Preventive Medicine in August 2012 in "In denial: misperceptions of weight among adults in the United States."
IHME research published online in Population Health Metrics in July 2012. The study, Developing a comprehensive time series of GDP per capita for 210 countries from 1950 to 2015, provides a complete time series for these years in both US dollars and international dollars. This research also generated estimates for seven datasets that calculate GDP but were incomplete across years (World Bank, the United Nations Statistics Division, the International Monetary Fund, the University of Pennsylvania, and the University of Groningen).
