Transition of obesity in India, 2006–2021
INTRODUCTION: Obesity and its downstream non-communicable diseases (NCDs) are the greatest health challenges of the 21st century, even in low-income and middle-income countries such as India. As traditional diseases of poverty wane, obesity and NCD burden rise. A crucial lens for understanding this transition is nation/state-wise 'economic gradient' of obesity. Therefore, we aimed to study the socioeconomic gradient of obesity and its changes (20…
Coverage of continuum of Maternal, Newborn and Child Health (MNCH) care in a nationally representative sample of 40,687 mother–child dyads of India
Odisha and a few other less-developed Indian states demonstrated that good CoC coverage can be achieved even with restricted resources, perhaps through strengthening of public health system. Other states should emulate and help India as a nation achieve full CoC coverage of all its mother-child dyads and attain MNCH-related sustainable development goals
To what extent classic socio-economic determinants explain trends of anaemia in tribal and non-tribal women of reproductive age in India? Findings from four National Family Heath Surveys (1998–2021)
The structural determinants wealth, education, food security, parity and urban amenities improved immensely in India but anaemia did not decline in this 23-year period. This implies that the "usual suspects" - the structural determinants are not the main drivers of anaemia in the country. The main driver may be absolute and/or functional deficiency status of micronutrients including iron attributable to inadequate uptake and absorption of these e…
What causes concordance of hypertension between spouses in India? Identifying a critical knowledge gap from a nationally representative cross-sectional sample of 63,020 couples aged 15 + years
Our study underscores two critical knowledge gaps: first, the identity of "novel" risk factors of hypertension and second, the mechanism behind weakening of concordance with age. Future research should explore these novel risk factors rigorously and try to modify them. Also, primary healthcare policy of the country should focus on couples in addition to individuals for hypertension and cardiovascular disease screening and management
