近年来用于量化疾病、伤害和风险因素对人类造成的负担的计量单位伤残调整寿命年(DALYs)以令人信服的经济和伦理原则为基础，可以指导提供更具成本效益和公平的医疗保健的政策。DALY遵循的是一项公平原则，即在包含个人健康状况的信息集中，仅按年龄和性别区分，将“相似”视为“相似”。用于考虑非致命健康结果的特定健康状态权重是通过应用各种形式的人的权衡而得出的。(C)1997年爱思唯尔科学公司。
The measurement unit disability-adjusted life years (DALYs), used in recent years to quantify the burden of diseases, injuries and risk factors on human populations, is grounded on cogent economic and ethical principles and can guide policies toward delivering more cost-effective and equitable health care. DALYs follow from a fairness principle that treats `like as like' within an information set comprising the health conditions of individuals, differentiated solely by age and sex. The particular health state weights used to account for non-fatal health outcomes are derived through the application of various forms of the person trade-off. (C) 1997 Elsevier Science B.V.
