Snack preferences among school-aged children: Evidence from discrete choice experiments
Accelerated economic development and innovative food industry trends have contributed to worsening dietary imbalanced among Chinese school-aged population. To investigate snack preferences among school-aged children, determine the relative importance of different snack attributes, and explore how these preferences vary by social-demographic characteristics to inform targeted nutritional interventions. A stratified cluster random sampling strategy…
Combined impact of elevated C-reactive protein levels and dyslipidemia on stroke: A CHNS prospective cohort study
Background: The objective of this study was to examine whether the combination of elevated levels of C-reactive protein (CRP) and dyslipidemia increased the risk of stroke among middle-aged and older adult individuals in China. Methods: This study utilized longitudinal data from the China Health and Nutrition Survey (CHNS) collected in 2009, 2015, and 2018. A total of 8,023 participants aged ≥40 years (3,595 males and 4,428 females) were included…
Network characteristics of referrals for chronic disease patients: Results from hierarchical medical reform in Shenzhen, China
The referral network has a vertical flow pattern conducive to the division of labour, cooperation, and resource integration of medical institutions in the region, and a hierarchical medical order is taking shape. However, poor communication between secondary hospitals and other institutions, high demand for data informatisation, and the gap between private and public PCFs may hinder further progress
Longitudinal relationship between body fat percentage and risk of type 2 diabetes in Chinese adults: Evidence from the China Health and Nutrition Survey
Objective Body fat percentage (BF%) might be an alternative index of obesity which is the major risk factor for developing type 2 diabetes (T2D). We aim to longitudinally evaluated the relationship between BF% and risk of T2D. Methods A sample of 5,595 adults aged 18–65 who participated in two waves of China Health and Nutrition Survey (CHNS 2015 and 2018) was analyzed. Two level mixed-effects modified Poisson regression with robust estimation of…
Pollution Risk Assessment and Sources Analysis of Heavy Metal in Soil from Bamboo Shoots
In order to investigate the pollution situation and sources analysis of heavy metals in bamboo shoot soil in Guangdong Province, a total of 175 soil samples were collected at 46 sites. Atomic fluorescence spectrophotometer and inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry were used to determine the content of five heavy metals: lead (Pb), cadmium (Cd), arsenic (As), mercury (Hg), and chromium (Cr). In addition, the soil environmental quality was e…
Disparities in fresh fruit and vegetable intake by sociodemographic and behavioural factors among adults in China
Objective: To measure the associations of sociodemographic and behavioural factors with fruit and vegetable consumption among adults in China. Design: A cross-sectional study. Setting: A 2015 wave of the China Health and Nutrition Survey. Participants: Totally, 11 910 adults aged 18 to 64 years. Results: Adjusted log binomial regression analyses showed that adults with higher income levels had higher fruit intake than those with low income levels…
The association between physical activity and body fat percentage with adjustment for body mass index among middle-aged adults: China health and nutrition survey in 2015
In middle-aged Chinese adults, the inverse association between physical activity and body fat% was only in particular subpopulations rather than the entire population. We should pay much attention to normal weight obese and give a suitable physical activity guideline taking into account people with different body fat
The association of metabolic syndrome components and diabetes mellitus: Evidence from China National Stroke Screening and Prevention Project
The NCEP ATPIII MetS definition may be more suitable for assessment of DM risk in Chinese population. Hyperglycemia, as previous study reported, are important risk factors of DM. Besides, other traits of Mets are also significantly associated with DM and should therefore be of greater concern
New Evidence on the Effect of Medical Insurance on the Obesity Risk of Rural Residents: Findings from the China Health and Nutrition Survey (CHNS, 2004–2011)
The obesity rate in China has risen significantly in the past few decades. While a number of causes for the rise in obesity have been explored, little attention has been paid to the role of health insurance per se. This study aims to investigate the impact of health insurance on the risk of obesity in rural China using longitudinal data from the China Health and Nutrition Survey (CHNS). We employed pooled ordinary least squares (OLS), probit esti…
Prevalence and stabilizing trends in overweight and obesity among children and adolescents in China, 2011-2015
Since 2011, overweight has remained stable, and obesity has stabilized in children, though not in adolescents. Although levels of childhood overweight and obesity in China are not high compared to other developed countries, they remain concerning enough that effective policies and interventions need to be sustained and intensified for lowering rates of childhood overweight and obesity
Change in Body Mass Index and Its Impact on Incidence of Hypertension in 18–65-Year-Old Chinese Adults
In conclusion, the results from this study provide unequivocal evidence that prevention of weight gain is likely to have a great impact on the incidence of hypertension in Chinese adults
Association between dietary patterns and blood lipid profiles among Chinese women
Objective The present study aimed to identify dietary patterns and explore their associations with blood lipid profiles among Chinese women. Design In a cross-sectional study, we identified dietary patterns using principal component analysis of data from three consecutive 24 h dietary recalls. The China Health and Nutrition Survey (CHNS) collected blood samples in the morning after an overnight fast and measured total cholesterol (TC), HDL choles…
Use of quantile regression to investigate changes in the body mass index distribution of Chinese adults aged 18–60 years: A longitudinal study
This longitudinal quantile regression suggests that effects of different covariates worked differently across the BMI distribution. Since social and economic characteristics in China have underlined the significant disparities in many aspects, national strategies to tackle overweight/obesity should be tailored as appropriate for various segments
