Example of DALY calculation for a deceased participant.
Abbreviations: YLD, Years Lost due to Disability; YLL, Years of Life Lost; DALY, Disability-Adjusted Life Year. The disability weights are 0.20 for Diabetes and 1 for death.

Example of DALY calculation for a participant still alive at truncation of follow-up.
Abbreviations: CVA, Cerebrovascular Accident; YLD, Years Lost due to Disability; YLL, Years of Life Lost; DALY, Disability-Adjusted Life Year. The disability weights are as follows; 0.20 for Diabetes, 0.61 for CVA and 1 for death.
