In India, Non Communicable Diseases (NCDs) and injuries account for an estimated 62% of the total age-standardized burden of forgone Disability Adjusted Life Years (DALYs). Public and private financing of clinical services to reduce the NCD burden is a major challenge. Methods We used National ...
(WBG’s) nuanced influence in the global health realm: (1) knowledge-based (how it is produced, who produces it, and what impact it has), (2) governance-based (who is involved in producing health policy and promoting it in spaces of governance), and (3) finance-based (how financing ...
Although LAC is not completely free of infectious diseases, is well advanced in its demographic and epidemiological transitions, with health problems highly concentrated on noncommunicable diseases (NCDs). People in the region are equally likely to die prematurely from just one NCD than from all commu...

However, the control of bacterial wilt is difficult and ineffective due to the high genetic variability, persistence in the environment and broad host range of R. solanacearum. Thus, the use of alternative antimicobial agents is needed [3, 8]. Studies on the biocontrol mechanisms of Bacillus ...
55% of the global NCD burden arises from other NCDs, which tend to be ignored in terms of premature mortality and quality of life reduction. Here, experts in some of these `forgotten NCDs' review the clinical impact of these diseases along with the consequences of their ignoring their medical...
