- W573556487 abstract "This article reviews a World Health Organisation (WHO) report, which attempts to identify the most effective lines of research to improve world health. The report states that, by 2020, traffic accidents will account for 5% of the lost years of healthy life worldwide. In the developing countries, future traffic accidents will kill and seriously injure disproportionately more people than in the industrialised world. The chief reasons for this situation are: (1) an increase in the proportion of people aged under 30, a high-risk group; (2) increasing numbers of vehicles on the roads; and (3) the shortage of emergency services. These were not the main reasons why the WHO team decided to recommend road accident prevention as a health priority. Instead, the team was motivated by a radical new method of analysing health statistics, which fundamentally challenges the links between existing health care policy and the prospects for economic development in poor countries. The new measure is the Disability-Adjusted Life Year (DALY), which represents how many healthy years of life are lost from death and disability. The report predicts that traffic accidents will become very much worse before improving. However, traffic researcher D Mohan is optimistic that effective cheap ways of reducing them can be found." @default.
