Developed in collaboration with experts from the Global Burden of Disease (GBD) research group and reviewed by the WSO Executive Committee, this comprehensive report serves as a critical resource for policymakers, healthcare professionals, researchers, and advocacy groups.
The updated figures and trends presented in the 2025 Fact Sheet are intended to inform strategic communication, guide resource allocation, and support global efforts aimed at prevention, treatment, and rehabilitation.
