A woman is diagnosed with diabetes at age 40. She lives until age 80, but her quality of life is reduced by half, due to severe disabilities associated with her condition. Assuming her life expectancy is 82 years, calculate the DALY

The impact that an aging population would have on the burden of disease in a still developing country are:

c. It would increase the share of accidents and injuries

d. It would increase the share of non-communicable disease

Explanation:

Such non-communicable diseases (NCDs) include Parkinson's disease, autoimmune diseases, strokes, heart diseases, cancers, diabetes, chronic kidney diseases, osteoarthritis, osteoporosis, Alzheimer's disease, and cataracts.  Based on their health conditions, the aging population is prone to accidents and  resultant injuries.  The aging population is also prone to live the rest of their years in protracted illnesses, incurable injuries, and dying prematurely following untreated diseases.
