Top-N country ranking for a WHO GHO indicator and year
Rank countries by a World Health Organization Global Health Observatory (WHO GHO) indicator for a chosen calendar year. Only rows with SpatialDimType=COUNTRY and Dim1=SEX_BTSX (both sexes) are considered so the leaderboard is comparable across countries. Use order=desc (default) for largest values first (e.g. countries with the highest life expectancy) or order=asc for lowest values first (e.g. lowest under-5 mortality).
Path parameters
