Listed in DataCite

An average of 56 million deaths occur worldwide each year and nearly 62% are caused by disease.

Description

Although research, awareness, and funding has increased significantly over the past century, it still might not be enough. After a small investigation it was revealed that the top three fatal diseases of Canadian citizens in 2015 were malignant neoplasms, heart diseases, and cerebrovascular diseases.

A program which outputs Key words, including ones related to health and medical sciences, was designed to quickly analyze the relevance of the aforementioned diseases. This program uses an input of data sets from 2016. Through analyzing the 2015 Top 100 articles and the 2016 data, we were able to infer the amount of research and funding that these topics receive, and its associated trends.

Since these three diseases are leading causes of mortality rates, it is important that more research and funding goes towards these diseases, but more specifically the field of health and medical sciences.
