Incident cancer burden attributable to excess body mass index in 30 European countries.
Excess adiposity is associated with increased risks of developing adult malignancies. To inform public health policy and guide further research, the incident cancer burden attributable to excess body mass index (BMI >or= 25 kg/m(2)) across 30 European countries were estimated. Population attributable risks (PARs) were calculated using European- and gender-specific risk estimates from a publishe...
متن کاملGlobal burden of cancer attributable to high body-mass index in 2012: a population-based study.
BACKGROUND 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 of cancer attributable to high BMI in 2012. METHODS In this population-based study, we derived population attributable fractions (PAFs) using relative risks and BMI estimates in adults by age, se...
متن کاملWorldwide burden of cancer attributable to diabetes and high body-mass index: a comparative risk assessment
BACKGROUND Diabetes and high body-mass index (BMI) are associated with increased risk of several cancers, and are increasing in prevalence in most countries. We estimated the cancer incidence attributable to diabetes and high BMI as individual risk factors and in combination, by country and sex. METHODS We estimated population attributable fractions for 12 cancers by age and sex for 175 count...
متن کاملEstimating the burden of disease attributable to excess body weight in South Africa in 2000.
OBJECTIVE To estimate the burden of disease attributable to excess body weight using the body mass index (BMI), by age and sex, in South Africa in 2000. DESIGN World Health Organization comparative risk assessment (CRA) methodology was followed. Re-analysis of the 1998 South Africa Demographic and Health Survey data provided mean BMI estimates by age and sex. Population-attributable fractions...
متن کاملExcess Body Mass Index- and Waist Circumference-Years and Incident Cardiovascular Disease: The CARDIA Study
OBJECTIVE To determine the influence of the total cumulative exposure to excess overall and abdominal adiposity on the incidence of cardiovascular disease (CVD). METHODS Prospective study of 4,061 white and black adults without CVD at baseline in 1985-1986 (age 18-30 years) from the multicenter, community-based CARDIA study. Time-varying excess body mass index (BMI)- and waist circumference (...
