Worldwide trends in body-mass index, underweight, overweight, and obesity from 1975 to 2016: a pooled analysis of 2416 population-based measurement studies in 128·9 million children, adolescents, and adults

Leandra Abarca-Gómez, +1024 more
- 16 Dec 2017 - 
TL;DR: Trends in mean BMI have recently flattened in northwestern Europe and the high-income English-speaking and Asia-Pacific regions for both sexes, southwestern Europe for boys, and central and Andean Latin America for girls, and by contrast, the rise in BMI has accelerated in east and south Asia forboth sexes, and southeast Asia for boys.
Journal ArticleDOI

Trends in adult body-mass index in 200 countries from 1975 to 2014: A pooled analysis of 1698 population-based measurement studies with 19.2 million participants

TL;DR: The posterior probability of meeting the target of halting by 2025 the rise in obesity at its 2010 levels, if post-2000 trends continue, is calculated.
Journal ArticleDOI

Plasma HDL cholesterol and risk of myocardial infarction: A mendelian randomisation study

Benjamin F. Voight, +140 more
TL;DR: In this paper, a Mendelian randomisation analysis was performed to compare the effect of HDL cholesterol, LDL cholesterol, and genetic score on risk of myocardial infarction.

Plasma HDL cholesterol and risk of myocardial infarction: a mendelian randomisation study

Benjamin F. Voight, +125 more
TL;DR: Mendelian randomisation analyses challenge the concept that raising of plasma HDL cholesterol will uniformly translate into reductions in risk of myocardial infarction.
Journal ArticleDOI

Sekar Kathiresan, +118 more
- 08 Feb 2009 -
