註釋
Many adults in developing countries suffer from chronic medical problems that seriously burden health services. Because adult illness can consume more than half of the developing worlds limited medical resources, a better understanding of adult health is urgently needed. This book documents the burden of adult ill-health in the developing world. The overall death rate for adults is analyzed, including such major causes of death as tuberculosis, diabetes, heart disease, cancer, and injury. The study examines problems that lead to adult ill-health and suggests ways of deterring them. Also discussed are cost-effective preventive options and ways of reducing the severity of many diseases.
