Standard errors and confidence intervals calculated using robust estimation. Income Index entered into models on a scale of 0-10. Negative estimates indicate a relationship of decreasing age-standardised DALY rates with increasing Income Index. Data for 2019 extracted from Global Burden of Disease Study and United Nations Development Programme. CI = Confidence interval. DALY = Disability-Adjusted Life Year. HDI = Human Development Index.
