This study assesses cases, deaths, and aetiologies spanning the past 25 years and informs the changing picture of diarrhoeal disease worldwide. Methods We estimated diarrhoeal mortality by age, sex, geography, and year using the Cause of Death Ensemble Model (CODEm), a modelling platform shared across most causes of death in the GBD 2015 study. We modelled diarrhoeal morbidity, including incidence and prevalence, using a meta-regression platform called DisMod-MR. We estimated aetiologies for diarrhoeal diseases using a counterfactual approach that incorporates the aetiology-specific risk of diarrhoeal disease and the prevalence of the aetiology in diarrhoea episodes. We used the Socio-demographic Index, a summary indicator derived from measures of income per capita, educational attainment, and fertility, to assess trends in diarrhoeal mortality. The two leading risk factors for diarrhoea--childhood malnutrition and unsafe water, sanitation, and hygiene--were used in a decomposition analysis to establish the relative contribution of changes in diarrhoea disability-adjusted life-years (DALYs). Findings Globally, in 2015, we estimate that diarrhoea was a leading cause of death among all ages (1*31 million deaths, 95% uncertainty interval [95% UI] 1*23 million to 1*39 million), as well as a leading cause of DALYs because of its disproportionate impact on young children (71*59 million DALYs, 66*44 million to 77*21 million). Diarrhoea was a common cause of death among children under 5 years old (499,000 deaths, 95% UI 447,000--558,000). The number of deaths due to diarrhoea decreased by an estimated 20*8% (95% UI 15*4--26*1) from 2005 to 2015. Rotavirus was the leading cause of diarrhoea deaths (199,000, 95% UI 165,000--241,000), followed by Shigella spp (164,300, 85,000--278,700) and Salmonella spp (90,300, 95% UI 34,100--183,100). Among children under 5 years old, the three aetiologies responsible for the most deaths were rotavirus, Cryptosporidium spp, and Shigella spp. Improvements in safe water and sanitation have decreased diarrhoeal DALYs by 13*4%, and reductions in childhood undernutrition have decreased diarrhoeal DALYs by 10*0% between 2005 and 2015. Interpretation At the global level, deaths due to diarrhoeal diseases have decreased substantially in the past 25 years, although progress has been faster in some countries than others. Diarrhoea remains a largely preventable disease and cause of death, and continued efforts to improve access to safe water, sanitation, and childhood nutrition will be important in reducing the global burden of diarrhoea.
