Necesity of priority setting
When resources are scarce “and they always are” we need methods to define what is most important.
Two public health questions:
1. What is the total impact of disease and injury in the population?
2. How do we compare the impacts of different diseases, risk factors, and interventions that affect different populations?
Ultimate Measure of Ill-health?
Death is most common Easy to determine Commonly tabulated
Deaths + Illness = ?
Disability Adjusted Life Year (DALY)
DALY = YLL + YLD Years of Lost Life (due to mortality) Years Lost to Disability (due to injury & illness)
The only differences in the rating of a death or disability should be due to age and sex, not to income, culture, location, social class.
Everyone in the world has right to best life expectancy in world
Burden of disease study
The purpose of the burden-of-disease concept is to provide a comprehensive assessment of health
challenges to inform public debate on the priorities for health action.
Asthma Asthma is the most common
chronic disease with immense social impact. The prevalence of asthma is rising in many parts of the world.

An overview to burden of asthma
Global Burden of Asthma in 2002 is estimated near 15010000 DALYs
Burden of asthma in EMRO in 2002 is 1303000 DALYs
Global Asthma death in 2002 is estimated near 226000
Asthma death in EMRO is 18000Global asthmatic patient is 300/000/000
Needs for DALY calculation
1. Prevalence of asthma2. Incidence of asthma3. Age of onset & Duration of asthma4. Mortality of asthma5. Remission rate of asthma6. Case fatality of asthma7. RR mortality plus

problemThere are no complete and
consistent data
WHO recommendation
Use of Disease Modeling concept and DISMOD software for production of consistent data
Methods
1. Collection of all published & unpublished epidemiologic data of asthma
• all universities• national & international articles
2. Review of all data in expert panel 3. Define the best estimation by expert opinion
Methods
4. Checked internal consistency of all data by disease modeling and DISMOD software
5. Creat all necessary index for DALY calculation by DISMOD
6. Checked all DISMOD outputs in expert panel7. DALY Calculation
Prevalence of mild asthma in Iran
Based on Meta-Analysis on 19 community based standard research on 61076 iranian children prevelence of asthma in general under 18 years age population prevalence of asthma in iran is 13.14% (95% CI 9.97% - 16.30%).
This is higher than international reports and estimations about Iran ( 10%)

Prevalence of astham in Tehran
Based on meta analysis on 3 study on 8738 children prevalence of asthma in tehran is 24.41% (95% CI 11.19% to 37.64%)
This is more than 2 folds of other regions of Iran

Prevalence of mild asthma in adults
There are only two community base research on prevalence of asthma in Iranian adults on 6706 person.
Isfahan (rural areea): 6.1% Mashad (urban area): 2.8%
prevalence of asthma in Iranian general population in adult age groups is equal to 3.35%
Prevalence of sever asthma
Based on 2 study in Iran that reports mild and sever asthma prevalence of sever asthma is equal to 1/7 mild asthma
Prevalence of sever asthma in children is assumed 1.97% In adults 0.47%
Mortality of Asthma in Iran
Based on death registration on 23 provinces of iran 2625 is occurred in 48326451 Iranian Population .
Garbage code is 17%
Mortality of Asthma in Iran
After correction of garbage codes total number of death in Iran is estimated 4326.
Problem (mortality of asthma in Tehran is higher than other regions in iran and there is no valid data on mortality of asthma in tehran)
After correction of Tehran mortality (2 times than other parts) total number of death in Iran from asthma is estimated 4814.
Duration of asthma)Incident case(
Unfortunatly there is no evidence or study on this item in iran
For calculation of duration and remission of asthma we have need a cohort study (at least 15 year follow up)
But international reports is availabe.

Remission of asthma
A cohort of 119 allergic asthmatic children was examined three times with a mean follow up of 30 years.
Based on this study in Netherland complete remission of asthma after 30 years is 22.09% and clinicaly remission is 29.7%

Remission of asthma in Iran
Unfortunatley there is no any follow up study on asthmatic patients in Iran.
Case fatality of asthma
Based on Death registartion data in 23 provinces and Prevalence studies in iran We estimated 4852416 asthmatic patients in Iran (by DISMOD)
(based on international report near 3000000 asthmatic patients lived in Iran) total number of death in Iran from asthma is estimated 4814. Case fatality in all age groups is equal to 0.001
But this is an estimation Unfortunatly there is no any study on Case fatality of
asthma in Iran
Disability weights of asthma
Based on Dutch disability weights DW of mild asthma is 0.03
(History of wheeze in the last 12 months) (ISAAC)
DW of sever asthma is 0.23 (History of wheeze in the last 12 months plus a positive airways
hyperresponsiveness test) (ISAAC)
Final inputs for DISMOD
After expert panel discussion we used below items
1. Prevalence of asthma2. Mortality of asthma3. Duration of asthma
DISMOD outputs
Internal consistency of outputs is checked by expert panel
Outputs are entered to BOD-InfoMan (an excel based DALY templete) and DALY calculate

Discussion
Based on the present study national burden of asthma is higher than international reports about Iran.
Burden of asthma in Iran is higher than mean of global burden of asthma.
Prevalence of asthma in Iran is increasing 0.17% annualy )world 0.06%(
