Global trends and burdens of neglected tropical diseases and malaria from 1990 to 2021: a systematic analysis of the Global Burden of Disease Study 2021
The burden of NTDm varies by region, age and sex. This is particularly the case in low-SDI regions. To reduce the global burden of NTDm, specific strategies such as strengthening health systems, fostering cross-sector collaboration, and enhancing community participation are essential. Integrated management requires a multisectoral approach that combines policy, health care, education, research, and community involvement to support sustainable development goals.
