Age-standardized Disability-Adjusted Life Years (DALYs) per 100,000 population attributable to alcohol use disorders. The World Health Organization compiled this data as part of its Global Health Observatory metrics. The dataset quantifies the health burden of alcohol-related conditions across populations.
Use Cases
- Analyze trends in the DALY rate for alcohol use disorders across different countries and years.
- Model the relationship between alcohol use disorder burden and other socioeconomic or health indicators.
- Compare the relative disease burden of alcohol use disorders against other mental and behavioral conditions using standardized metrics.
- Benchmark national performance in reducing alcohol-related health loss over time.
Strengths
- Data originates from the authoritative World Health Organization Global Health Observatory.
- Metrics are age-standardized, enabling valid comparisons across populations with different age structures.
- Focuses on a specific, policy-relevant metric (DALYs) for a major public health issue.
Limitations
- Specific row count, column details, and temporal coverage are unknown from the input.
- Data may have gaps or varying estimation methods for different countries.
- The update frequency and recency of the data are unspecified.
