The Global Burden of Disease Study 2015 (GBD 2015), coordinated by the Institute for Health Metrics and Evaluation (IHME), estimated the burden of diseases, injuries, and risk factors at the global, regional, national, territorial, and, for a subset of countries, subnational level.

This dataset measures progress towards the Millennium Development Goal 4 (MDG 4) target of reduction of child mortality by two-thirds from 1990-2015. Estimates for neonatal, infant, and under-5 mortality for 21 regions, 195 countries and territories and 4 United Kingdom subnational units for 1990-2015 (quinquennial) are available from the GBD Results Tool. Files available in this record include tables published The Lancet in October 2016 in "Global, regional, national, and selected subnational levels of stillbirths, neonatal, infant, and under-5 mortality, 1980‐2015: a systematic analysis for the Global Burden of Disease Study 2015."
