Objective: To determine the disability adjusted life years in arterial hypertension without diabetes mellitus.

Method: Disability adjusted life years was determined from chronic disability (chronic kidney disease, heart disease and cerebral vascular event), acute disability (hypertensive crisis and hypertensive emergency) and premature death. Age of diagnosis, age of the complication, prevalence of the complication, duration of the acute event, number of acute events, time lived with hypertension, age of death and life expectancy were identified. In all cases a 3% discount rate was applied, the estimate was made per 100,000.

Results: When the total of women was used as a reference, the disability adjusted life years in women is 198,498.28. In men, using the total number of men as a reference, the value is 204,232.13. If the referent is the total population, in women the disability adjusted life years is 102,028.11 and in men 99,256.98.

Conclusions: The disability adjusted life years in arterial hypertension without diabetes is different for men and women; the topic has many edges that must be studied.

Introduction: Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) is associated with exacerbations which can reduce quality of life and increase mortality. Single-inhaler triple therapy (SITT) is recommended for maintenance treatment of COPD among patients experiencing exacerbations despite dual-therapy use. This real-world comparative effectiveness study compared the impact of SITTs, fluticasone furoate/umeclidinium/vilanterol (FF/UMEC/VI), and budesonide/glycopyrrolate/formoterol fumarate (BUD/GLY/FORM), on COPD exacerbations and mortality.

Objective: This study investigates whether early gestational age (GA) at delivery is associated with an increased risk for severe maternal morbidity (SMM) in women with preterm delivery.

Methods: This retrospective national cohort study based on the Programme de Médicalisation des Systèmes d'Information database included mothers who gave birth between 22 and 37 weeks in metropolitan France in 2019 (in utero deaths and medical terminations of pregnancies were excluded). SMM was defined as a composite criterion consisting of the occurrence of at least one of the following events: death, severe preeclampsia, obstetric surgical complications, severe maternal diseases, and admission to the intensive care unit.

Background And Purpose: The aim of this study was to assess the intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH) burden in 204 countries and territories worldwide from 1990 to 2021, disaggregated by sex, age, and sociodemographic index (SDI) at the global, regional, and country levels.

Methods: Data from the 2021 Global Burden of Disease Study (GBD) were used to calculate age-standardized prevalence (ASPR), incidence (ASIR), death (ASDR), and disability-adjusted life year (DALY) rates for ICH. The estimated annual percentage change (EAPC) was used to assess time patterns.
