Flow-Diverter Stenting of Intracavernous Internal Carotid Artery Mycotic Aneurysm

The shifting burden of neurosurgical disease: Vietnam and the middle-income nations.
CONCLUSIONS: More than two-thirds of deaths attributable to neurosurgical pathologies in Vietnam and other middle-income nations were due to stroke, and one-fifth of both cause-attributable death and YLD was associated with neurosurgical pathologies. Vietnam and other middle-income nations continue to assume a global burden of disease profile that ever more closely resembles that of developed nations, with particular cerebrovascular, neurotrauma, and spinal disease burdens, leading to exponentially increased demand for neurosurgeons that threatens to outpace the training of neurosurgeons.

Double burden: a cross-sectional survey assessing factors associated with underweight and overweight status in danang, vietnam
