- These high growth rates lead to the so-called "youth bulge," which some experts believe is a cause of social unrest and economic problems such as high unemployment.
- The stable population diagram is rounded on top; the older part of the population is a larger proportion of the population than in the other age diagrams.

- A disc herniation is a common injury caused by a tear in the fibrous ring of an intervertebral disc, allowing the central portion to bulge.
- A spinal disc herniation is a medical condition affecting the spine in which a tear in the outer, fibrous ring of an intervertebral disc allows the soft, central portion to bulge out beyond the damaged outer rings .
- Symptoms of a herniated disc can vary depending on the location of the herniation and the types of soft tissue that become involved.
- If the herniated disc is in the lumbar region (where the majority of herniated discs occur), the patient may also experience sciatica due to irritation of one of the nerve roots of the sciatic nerve.
- In the majority of cases, spinal disc herniation doesn't require surgery.
