Interesting paper on health indicators across regions in UK as well as other countries.

It would nice to see a correlation beween expenditure on health and these indicators!

Summary
Background In the Global Burden of Disease Study 2013 (GBD 2013), knowledge about health and its determinants has
been integrated into a comparable framework to inform health policy. Outputs of this analysis are relevant to current
policy questions in England and elsewhere, particularly on health inequalities. We use GBD 2013 data on mortality and
causes of death, and disease and injury incidence and prevalence to analyse the burden of disease and injury in England
as a whole, in English regions, and within each English region by deprivation quintile. We also assess disease and injury
burden in England attributable to potentially preventable risk factors. England and the English regions are compared with
the remaining constituent countries of the UK and with comparable countries in the European Union (EU) and beyond.
