Extended Data Fig. 8: Changes in research and burden of disease globally and by region.
From: Global distribution of research efforts, disease burden, and impact of US public funding withdrawal
Geographic stratification of the five diseases with the largest impact on divergence trends. The top panels highlight a ‘global’ disease – cardiovascular diseases – that contributes to increasing divergence, while the bottom panels present four ‘local’ diseases – respiratory infections and tuberculosis, enteric infections, maternal and neonatal disorders, and nutritional deficiencies – that contribute to decreasing divergence. Left panels show absolute changes in global research activity (blue bars) and disease burden (red bars); right panels show the same changes disaggregated by region.
