Heterogeneous contributions of change in population distribution of body mass index to change in obesity and underweight.
NCD Risk Factor Collaboration (NCD-RisC). NCD Risk Factor Collaboration (NCD-RisC). Elife. 2021 Mar 9;10:e60060. doi: 10.7554/eLife.60060. Elife. 2021. PMID: 33685583 Free PMC article.
Changes in the prevalence of underweight and total obesity, and to a lesser extent severe obesity, are largely driven by shifts in the distribution of BMI, with smaller contributions from changes in the shape of the distribution. In East and Southeast Asia and sub-Saharan Afri …
