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...
Patterning of educational attainment across inflammatory markers: Findings from...
Maurel, M; Castagné, R; Berger, E; Bochud, M; Chadeau-Hyam, M; Fraga, S; Gandini, M; Hutri-Kähönen, N; Jalkanen, S; Kivimäki, M; Marmot, M; McCrory, CBackground. Evidence suggests that the inflammatory reaction, an adaptive response triggered by a variety of harmful stimuli and conditions involved in the risk and development of many chronic diseases, is a potential pathway through which the socioeconomic environment is biologically embedded. Difficulty in interpreting the role of the inflammatory system in the embodiment dynamic arises because of heterogenei...
Socioeconomic differences in children’s growth trajectories from infancy to ear...
McCrory, C; O'Leary, N; Fraga, S; Ribeiro, AI; Barros, H; Kartiosuo, N; Raitakari, O; Kivimäki, M; Vineis, P; Layte, RBackground Height is regarded as a marker of early-life illness, adversity, nutrition and psychosocial stress, but the extent to which differences in height are determined by early-life socioeconomic circumstances, particularly in contemporary populations, is unclear. This study examined socioeconomic differences in children’s height trajectories from birth through to 21 years of age in four European countries....
Worldwide trends in diabetes since 1980: a pooled analysis of 751 population-ba...
Zhou, B; Lu, Y; Hajifathalian, K; Bentham, J; Di Cesare, M; Danaei, G; Bixby, H; Cowan, MJ; Ali, MK; Taddei, C.; Lo, WC; Ninomiya, T; Noale, M; Noto, DBackground One of the global targets for non-communicable diseases is to halt, by 2025, the rise in the age standardised adult prevalence of diabetes at its 2010 levels. We aimed to estimate worldwide trends in diabetes, how likely it is for countries to achieve the global target, and how changes in prevalence, together with population growth and ageing, are aff ecting the number of adults with diabetes. Method...
Effects of diabetes definition on global surveillance of diabetes prevalence an...
Danaei, G; Fahimi, S; Lu, Y; Zhou, B; Hajifathalian, K; Di Cesare, M; Lo, WC; Reis-Santos, B; Cowan, MJ; Shaw, JE; Bentham, J; Mohammad, K; Mohan, VBackground Diabetes has been defi ned on the basis of diff erent biomarkers, including fasting plasma glucose (FPG), 2-h plasma glucose in an oral glucose tolerance test (2hOGTT), and HbA1c. We assessed the eff ect of diff erent diagnostic defi nitions on both the population prevalence of diabetes and the classifi cation of previously undiagnosed individuals as having diabetes versus not having diabetes in a po...
