NCD are a major problem in low-income and middle-income countries, consuming increasing proportions of health care budgets. NCD are among the leading causes of disability and ill health and are the leading cause of preventable and premature death, having a significant impact on economies. NCD generate large out-of-pocket health costs for both individuals and families, as well as huge health outlays in national budgets. The analysis proposed can provide critical information to monitor trends in population health outcomes, recognize the pattern of diseases and injuries affecting premature mortality and disability. This paper shows an approach for the identification of the behavior of four main NCD (cardiovascular diseases, respiratory diseases, diabetes mellitus, and neoplasms) along thirteen countries selected and various economic variables related to the health and work issues from 1961 to 2021 with unbalanced data. The primary focus is the analysis on mortality in population within working age. ©SpringerenNoncommunicable diseasesEconometric modelsPanel dataWorking ageHealth economicsResource Types::text::book::book part
