Objective 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...

Yoo, SGK; Chung, GS; Bahendeka, SK; Sibai, AM; Damasceno, A; Farzadfar, F; Rohloff, P; Houehanou, C; Norov, B; Karki, KB; Azangoukhyavy, M; Marcus, ME

The role of aspirin in the primary prevention of atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease (CVD) is not clear, with recent clinical trials evaluating aspirin for primary prevention demonstrating both modest benefits and risks associated with its use [1]. Aspirin is not routinely recommended for primary prevention of CVD. Understanding patterns of aspirin use can inform strategies to promote guideline-concordant th...


Worldwide trends in underweight and obesity from 1990 to 2022: A pooled analysi...

Background: 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...

Animal-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...

Ochmann, S; von Polenz, I; Marcus, ME; Theilmann, M; Flood, D; Agoudavi, K; Aryal, KK; Bahendeka, S; Bicaba, B; Bovet, P; Campos Caldeira Brant, L

Background Testing for the risk factors of cardiovascular disease, which include hypertension, diabetes, and hypercholesterolaemia, is important for timely and effective risk management. Yet few studies have quantified and analysed testing of cardiovascular risk factors in low-income and middle-income countries (LMICs) with respect to sociodemographic inequalities. We aimed to address this knowledge gap. Method...


Aspirin for Secondary Prevention of Cardiovascular Disease in 51 Low-, Middle-,...

Yoo, SGK; Chung, GS; Bahendeka, SK; Sibai, AM; Damasceno, A; Farzadfar, F; Rohloff, P; Houehanou, C; Norov, B; Karki, KB; Azangou-Khyavy, M; Marcus, ME

"Importance Aspirin is an effective and low-cost option for reducing atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease (CVD) events and improving mortality rates among individuals with established CVD. To guide efforts to mitigate the global CVD burden, there is a need to understand current levels of aspirin use for secondary prevention of CVD. Objective To report and evaluate aspirin use for secondary prevention of CVD a...


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, JH

The 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) ...

The Association of Socioeconomic Status With Hypertension in 76 Low- and Middle...

Kirschbaum, TK; Sudharsanan, N; Manne Goehler, J; De Neve, JW; Lemp, JM; Theilmann, M; Marcus, ME; Ebert, C; Chen, SM; Yoosefi, M; Sibai, AM

Background Effective equity-focused health policy for hypertension in low- and middle-income countries (LMICs) requires an understanding of the condition’s current socioeconomic gradients and how these are likely to change in the future as countries develop economically. Objectives This cross-sectional study aimed to determine how hypertension prevalence in LMICs varies by individuals’ education and household w...
