Publication share of the 14-area pool
Pool share (%) by five-year period. Pool totals: 1995–1999 26,544, 2000–2004 36,611, 2005–2009 50,051, 2010–2014 65,755, 2015–2019 85,380, 2020–2024 128,117.
| Period | 1995–1999 | 2000–2004 | 2005–2009 | 2010–2014 | 2015–2019 | 2020–2024 |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Publications | 1,589 | 2,055 | 2,717 | 4,413 | 6,516 | 10,473 |
| Share of pool (%) | 5.99% | 5.61% | 5.43% | 6.71% | 7.63% | 8.17% |
First-to-last share change: +36.5% (relative). Dynamics label: Unclassified.
Attention–burden ratio (ABR)
log2 ABR by period (dashed line = parity, ABR 1). Last period pairs publications 2020–24 with burden 2020–23 (see Methods).
| Period | 1995–1999 | 2000–2004 | 2005–2009 | 2010–2014 | 2015–2019 | 2020–2024 |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| log2 ABR | +1.39 | +1.31 | +1.27 | +1.43 | +1.55 | +1.50 |
| ABR | 2.61 | 2.47 | 2.42 | 2.70 | 2.92 | 2.82 |
| Publication share of 7-cause pool (%) | 9.8% | 9.5% | 9.7% | 11.3% | 12.4% | 12.7% |
| DALY share of 7-cause pool (%) | 3.8% | 3.8% | 4.0% | 4.2% | 4.2% | 4.5% |
Burden–research centroid distance
Great-circle distance (km) between the DALY-weighted burden centroid and the first-author research centroid (arithmetic mean centres; see Methods).
| Period | 1995–1999 | 2000–2004 | 2005–2009 | 2010–2014 | 2015–2019 | 2020–2024 |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Distance (km) | 8,621 | 7,820 | 7,619 | 8,140 | 8,028 | 5,242 |
First-to-last change: -39.2% (8,621 → 5,242 km). Last-period distances remain large in absolute terms for every cause.
First-author geography
LMIC share of parsed first-author records: 5.9% → 30.5% (this area; pooled across all 14 areas: 7.9% → 39.8%). Share of first authors located in this cause's ten highest-DALY countries: 56.8% → 53.6%.
Decoupling typology
| Signal | Value | Direction (main thresholds) |
|---|---|---|
| S — relative change in pool publication share | +36.5% | up |
| B — relative change in DALY share of the 7-cause pool | +19.5% | stable |
| A — change in log2 ABR | +0.11 | stable |
| Threshold set | Assigned type |
|---|---|
| Low (±15% / ±0.3) | Burden-tracking |
| Main (±25% / ±0.5) | Unclassified |
| High (±35% / ±0.7) | Unclassified |
This cause matches no rule under the main thresholds and is reported as unclassified; it is not forced into a type. Its behaviour under the other threshold sets is shown above.
Annualised absolute DALYs for this cause changed +101.3% between the first and last periods. B is a share: a falling B means relative dilution inside the pool, never an absolute decline.
