Adiposity and reproductive characteristics across the lifespan
BACKGROUND: Reproductive characteristics significantly shape physiological adaptations, little is known about how they relate to adiposity in women of multi-ethnic regions undergoing a rapid increase in obesity burden. This study aims to address this gap by assessing how reproductive patterns correlate with adiposity and identifying potential moderating factors among Chinese adults. METHODS: In 2018–2019, 107,679 participants from the Regional Et…
Life-course social disparities in body mass index trajectories across adulthood
The associations between life-course SEP and BMI development trajectories differed significantly by gender. Special emphasis should be placed on males experiencing upward and stable high socioeconomic change
A 3-year Longitudinal Study of Pocket Money, Eating Behavior, Weight Status
The associations between children's pocket money and their eating behaviors and weight status have not been examined using longitudinal data in China. Examined child and parental factors associated with children's pocket money, and longitudinal effects of pocket money on children's eating behaviors and weight status. Data were collected in 2015, 2016, and 2017 from 3261 school-age children and their parents in mega-cities across China (Beijing, S…
Trends in Life Expectancy and Its Association with Economic Factors in the Belt and Road Countries—Evidence from 2000–2014
In 2013, China launched the Belt and Road (B&R) Initiative in an effort to promote trade and economic collaboration. This study examined the change in life expectancy (LE) among countries along B&R and studied the impact of economic development on LE. Data from 65 B&R countries from 2000 to 2014 were compiled and analyzed. Trend of LE was examined by sex and country. Linear quantile mixed model was used to study the associations between LE and ec…
Equation‐derived body fat percentage indicates metabolic abnormalities among normal‐weight adults in a rural Chinese population
OBJECTIVES: Obesity classification using body mass index (BMI) may miss subjects with elevated body fat percentage (BF%) and related metabolic risk factors. We aimed to evaluate whether BF% calculated by equations could provide more information about metabolic risks, in addition to BMI classification, in a cross-sectional rural Chinese population. METHODS: A total of 2,990 men and women aged 18-80 years were included in this study. BF% was calcul…
Fast food consumption and its associations with obesity and hypertension among children
The prevalence of fast food consumption, obesity and hypertension is high among children in major cities in China. Maternal factors affect child outcomes
Plasma folate status and dietary folate intake among Chinese women of childbearing age
Maternal folic acid deficiency is an underlying risk for neural tube defects (NTDs). China has one of the highest prevalences of NTDs, and the prevalence rates of NTDs vary by region. We characterized plasma folate level and dietary folate intake among Chinese women of childbearing age by region (North and South, East and West, urban and rural) to provide evidence for establishing policy to prevent NTDs. A total of 1003 women of childbearing age …
