摘要

Background and aimsRoad traffic injury (RTI) as a major public health problem is the ninth leading cause of death globally. Cases of RTIs are increasing in most of the regions of the world. Research into RTIs indicates that there are distinct differences in the pattern of economic growth between high-income countries (HIC) and low-middle-income countries (LMIC). We aimed to address the economic burden of RTI among LMIC versus HIC; for this purpose we gathered the evidences through a review of the literature.
