[A population health metric for France].
Population health metrics have been developed to help to determine public health priorities. Disability-Adjusted Life Years (DALYs) is an index used to express the number of years of good health lost due to a given disorder, based not only on mortality but also on the duration and sequelae. Based on the DALYs index, the leading health disorders in France, regardless of gender, are neuropsychiatric disorders (7.8%) and depression (11.8%).
