Zong, X; Kelishadi, R; Kim, HS; Schwandt, P; Matsha, TE; Mill, JG; Whincup, PH; Pacifico, L; López-Bermejo, A; Caserta, CA; Medeiros, CCM; Yan, W-LAims: The clinical utility of waist-to-height ratio (WHtR) in predicting cardiometabolic risk factors (CMRFs) and subclinical markers of cardiovascular disease remains controversial. We aimed to compare the utility of WHtR with waist circumference (WC) and body mass index (BMI) in identifying children and adolescents (youths) at risk for cardiometabolic outcomes, including clustered CMRFs, high carotid intima-m...
How prices and income influence global patterns in saturated fat intake by age,...
Ahles, A; Muhammad, A; Yenerall, JN; Reedy, J; Shi, P; Zhang, J; Cudhea, F; Erndt-Marino, J; Miller, V; Mozaffarian, D; Abbott, P; Abdollahi, MObjective When considering proposals to improve diets, it is important to understand how factors like price and income can affect saturated fat (SF) intake and demand. In this study, we examine and estimate the influence of price and income on intake across 160 countries, by age and sex, and derive sensitivity measures (price elasticities) that vary by age, sex and world region. Design We econometrically estima...
Children's and adolescents' rising animal-source food intakes in 1990-2018 were...
Miller, V; Webb, P; Cudhea, F; Zhang, J; Reedy, J; Shi, P; Erndt Marino, J; Coates, J; Micha, R; Mozaffarian, D; Bas, M; Ali, JH; Abumweis, SAnimal-source foods (ASF) provide nutrition for children and adolescents physical and cognitive development. Here, we use data from the Global Dietary Database and Bayesian hierarchical models to quantify global, regional and national ASF intakes between 1990 and 2018 by age group across 185 countries, representing 93% of the worlds child population. Mean ASF intake was 1.9 servings per day, representing 16% of...
Incident type 2 diabetes attributable to suboptimal diet in 184 countries
OHearn, M; Lara Castor, L; Cudhea, F; Miller, V; Reedy, J; Shi, P; Zhang, J; Wong, JB; Economos, CD; Micha, R; Mozaffarian, D; Bas, M; Ali, JHThe global burden of diet-attributable type 2 diabetes (T2D) is not well established. This risk assessment model estimated T2D incidence among adults attributable to direct and body weight-mediated effects of 11 dietary factors in 184 countries in 1990 and 2018. In 2018, suboptimal intake of these dietary factors was estimated to be attributable to 14.1 million (95% uncertainty interval (UI), 13.814.4 million) ...
