- The study maps morbidity data and identifies data gaps for EU countries in the Global Burden of Disease (GBD) 2023 study.
- Highest data coverage was found in Sweden, Austria, and Germany, while the lowest was in Hungary, Romania, and Bulgaria.
- Infectious diseases had high data coverage, but significant gaps existed for musculoskeletal disorders (15.9%), mental disorders (32.9%), and unintentional injuries (28.1%).
- Data coverage was highest for the 2000s, indicating temporal variations in data availability.
- Variations in data coverage suggest potential differences in the reliability of GBD estimates across EU countries.
- Improving data collection and utilization is crucial for enhancing estimate accuracy and benchmarking among European health systems.
