Article Synopsis
- This study analyzes data from over 791,000 adults in China to examine the impact of high fasting plasma glucose on cardiovascular disease (CVD) between 2010 and 2018.
- In 2018, high fasting plasma glucose was linked to approximately 498,610 deaths from CVD, indicating a significant public health issue, especially in regions with middle and high socio-demographic indices.
- The research highlights the need for targeted prevention strategies to address diabetes and cardiovascular health in China and regions with similar health profiles, considering factors like population aging and glucose exposure.
Background: Dementia has become a major public health concern worldwide, but comprehensive assessments of dementia burden attributable to high body mass index (BMI) in China have not been done.
Methods: We used a temporal-spatial Bayesian hierarchical model to estimated BMI levels based on 1.25 million Chinese.
Background: Temporal trends and geographical variations in disease burden for diabetes mellitus (DM) and cardiovascular disease (CVD) attributable to high body mass index (BMI) in China have not been fully elucidated.
Methods: We estimated deaths and years of life lost (YLLs) for DM and CVD attributable to high BMI by age, sex, year, and region from 2005 to 2018 based on pooled data of 1.25 million adults.
Understanding the levels of health literacy among different groups is essential for better public health interventions targeting specific subgroups of the population. Additionally, this article explores the prevalence and influencing factors of the health literacy levels of different age groups during the COVID-19 epidemic. Multistage stratified cluster random sampling and the Probability Proportion to Size (PPS) method were used to select permanent residents aged 15-69 in Chongqing (54,706) for the questionnaire survey.
