1998年，利用疾病负担的健康指标--伤残调整寿命年调查了巴西的国家和区域流行病模式。结果表明，慢性病和退行性疾病占全国疾病负担的66.3%，其次是传染病、围产期和孕产妇疾病、营养不良(23.5%)和伤害(10.2%)。有人建议，使用DALY可以根据流行病学概况确定卫生优先事项，使管理人员能够更容易地做出决策和使用资源。
The national and regional epidemiological patterns in Brazil, in 1998, were investigated using the Disability Adjusted Life Years (DALY), the health indicator of disease burden. The results showed that chronic and degenerative diseases accounted for 66.3% of the national burden of disease, followed by communicable diseases, perinatal and maternal conditions, and nutritional deficiencies (23.5%), and injuries (10.2%). It is suggested that the use of DALY permits the identification of health priorities based on the epidemiological profile, allowing easier decision making and use of resources by managers.
