Summary 

The Global Burden of Disease Study 2021 (GBD 2021), coordinated by the Institute for Health Metrics and Evaluation (IHME), estimated the burden of diseases, injuries, and risk factors for 204 countries and territories and selected subnational locations.

This dataset provides estimates for disability-adjusted life years (DALYs), years lived with disability (YLDs), years of life lost (YLLs), prevalence, and deaths for 37 individual conditions that impact the nervous system and aggregate health loss across all 37 conditions. Supplemental materials linked to the online publication describe data availability per condition.
