Worldwide trends in underweight and obesity from 1990 to 2022: A pooled analysi...
Robinson, L; Roccaldo, R; Rodrigues, D; Rodriguez Perez, MdC; Rodríguez Villamizar, LA; Rodríguez, AY; Roggenbuck, U; Rohloff, P; Rohner, FBackground: Underweight and obesity are associated with adverse health outcomes throughout the life course. We estimated the individual and combined prevalence of underweight or thinness and obesity, and their changes, from 1990 to 2022 for adults and school-aged children and adolescents in 200 countries and territories. Methods: We used data from 3663 population-based studies with 222 million participants that...
Height and body-mass index trajectories of school-aged children and adolescents...
Horimoto, AR; Hormiga, CM; Horta, BL; Houti, L; Howitt, C; Htay, TT; Htet, AS; Htike, MMT; Hu, Y; Huerta, JM; Huhtaniemi, IT; Huidumac Petrescu, CBackground: Comparable global data on health and nutrition of school-aged children and adolescents are scarce. We aimed to estimate age trajectories and time trends in mean height and mean body-mass index (BMI), which measures weight gain beyond what is expected from height gain, for school-aged children and adolescents. Methods: For this pooled analysis, we used a database of cardiometabolic risk factors colla...
Percutaneous coronary intervention reduces mortality in myocardial infarction p...
Dégano, IR; Subirana, I; Fusco, D; Tavazzi, L; Kirchberger, I; Farmakis, D; Ferrières, J; Azevedo, A; Torre, M; Garel, P; Brosa, M; Davoli, MBackground: Percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) reduces mortality in most myocardial infarction (MI) patients but the effect on elderly patients with comorbidities is unclear. Our aim was to analyse the effect of PCI on in-hospital mortality of MI patients, by age, sex, ST elevation on presentation, diabetes mellitus (DM) and chronic kidney disease (CKD). Methods: Cohort study of 79,791 MI patients admitte...
A European benchmarking system to evaluate in-hospital mortality rates in acute...
Dégano, IR; Subirana, I; Torre, M; Grau, M; Vila, J; Fusco, D; Kirchberger, I; Ferrieres, J; Malmivaara, A; Azevedo, A; Meisinger, C; Bongard, VBackground: Hospital performance models in acute myocardial infarction (AMI) are useful to assess patient management. While models are available for individual countries, mainly US, cross-European performance models are lacking. Thus, we aimed to develop a system to benchmark European hospitals in AMI and percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI), based on predicted in-hospital mortality. Methods and results: We...
Seasonality of cardiovascular risk factors: an analysis including over 230 000 ...
Marti-Soler, H; Gubelmann, C; Aeschbacher, S; Alves, L; Bobak, M; Bongard, V; Clays, E; de Gaetano, G; Di Castelnuovo, A; Elosua, R; Ferrieres, JObjective To assess the seasonality of cardiovascular risk factors (CVRF) in a large set of population-based studies. Methods Cross-sectional data from 24 population-based studies from 15 countries, with a total sample size of 237 979 subjects. CVRFs included Body Mass Index (BMI) and waist circumference; systolic (SBP) and diastolic (DBP) blood pressure; total, high (HDL) and low (LDL) density lipoprotein chol...
