Hypertension can be detected at the primary health-care level and low-cost treatments effectively control hypertension. We aimed to measure prevalence of hypertension progress in its detection, treatment, from 1990 2019 for 200 countries territories.
High body-mass index (BMI; defined as 25 kg/m(2) or greater) is associated with increased risk of cancer. To inform public health policy and future research, we estimated the global burden cancer attributable to high BMI in 2012.
Abstract Body-mass index (BMI) has increased steadily in most countries parallel with a rise the proportion of population who live cities 1,2 . This led to widely reported view that urbanization is one important drivers global obesity 3–6 Here we use 2,009 population-based studies, measurements height and weight more than 112 million adults, report national, regional trends mean BMI segregated by place residence (a rural or urban area) from 1985 2017. We show that, contrary dominant...
<h2>Summary</h2><h3>Background</h3> Underweight and obesity are associated with adverse health outcomes throughout the life course. We estimated individual combined prevalence of underweight or thinness obesity, their changes, from 1990 to 2022 for adults school-aged children adolescents in 200 countries territories. <h3>Methods</h3> used data 3663 population-based studies 222 million participants that measured height weight representative samples general population. a Bayesian hierarchical...
Abstract The concept of a so-called urban advantage in health ignores the possibility heterogeneity outcomes across cities. Using harmonized dataset from SALURBAL project, we describe variability and predictors life expectancy proportionate mortality 363 cities nine Latin American countries. Life differed substantially within same country. Cause-specific also varied cities, with some causes death (unintentional violent injuries deaths) showing large variation countries, whereas other...
Early control of elevated blood pressure is the most promising treatment for acute intracerebral haemorrhage. We aimed to establish whether implementing a goal-directed care bundle incorporating protocols early intensive lowering and management algorithms hyperglycaemia, pyrexia, abnormal anticoagulation, implemented in hospital setting, could improve outcomes patients with spontaneous
Abstract Latin American populations may present patterns of sociodemographic, ethnic and cultural diversity that can defy current universal models healthy aging. The potential combination risk factors influence aging across in Caribbean (LAC) countries is unknown. Compared to other regions where classical such as age sex drive aging, higher disparity-related between-country variability could LAC countries. We investigated the combined impact social determinants health (SDH), lifestyle...
