In specific disease group, Nutritional Deficiency become the most leading disease categories
towards YLD for under 5 (0 to 4 years old) while Mental and Behavioural Disorders become the most
leading disease categories towards YLD in the age of young adult (15 to 29 years old) and older
adult (30 to 49 years old). Starting at pre-elderly age group (50-59 years old), Diabetes Mellitus
become the most leading disease categories towards YLD with the disease start to occur during
the younger adult. Cardiovascular and Circulatory Diseases become the most leading disease
categories towards YLD at elderly age group (60 years and above) (Figure 4.8). Both male and
female had the same pattern of non-fatal burden of YLD as compared with overall population
(Figure 4.9; Figure 4.10).
