The burden of chronic respiratory disease in Western Pacific Region from 1990 to 2021: a systematic analysis for the global burden of disease study 2021
Despite advances in lowering CRD mortality and DALYs in the Western Pacific since 1990, challenges persist, including high COPD and asthma rates, rising ILD and pulmonary sarcoidosis, localized pneumoconiosis, and more young adult cases. Ongoing efforts in tobacco control, air pollution reduction, weight management, and occupational safety are crucial to further decrease the CRD burden.
