The role and future of the population health observatory: Advancing public health intelligence in Saudi Arabia
The Population Health Observatory (PHO), established by Saudi Arabia’s Ministry of Health, employs cutting-edge technology, machine learning (ML), and proactive forecasting to analyse big data as part of strategic efforts to advance the nation’s health at the population level. This study explores the foundational goals, operational scope, future directions, and recommendations of the PHO in alignment with Vision 2030, considering its aim of enabl…
Comorbidities of overweight and obesity associated risk factor in Saudi Arabia: A population-based analysis
Background Obesity is a significant public health challenge in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia (KSA), with profound impacts on individual well-being and the healthcare system.

We estimated the individual and combined prevalence of underweight or thinness and obesity, and their changes, from 1990 to 2022 for adults and school-aged children and adolescents in 200 countries and territories. METHODS: ). For school-aged children and adolescents, we report thinness (BMI 2 SD above the median). FINDINGS: From 1990 to 20…
The perception of genetic diseases and premarital screening tests in the central region of Saudi Arabia
The prevalence of consanguineous marriages (CMs) varies worldwide from one country to another. However, the Middle East stands out as a region with a notably high rate of CMs. CM is particularly widespread in Saudi Arabia, where the prevalence of autosomal recessive genetic diseases has increased. This study aims to identify the Saudi population's awareness of genetic diseases and premarital screening tests (PMSTs). It also seeks to understand co…
The case for investing in the prevention and control of non-communicable diseases in the six countries of the Gulf Cooperation Council: An economic evaluation

METHODS: We performed an economic analysis to estimate the ROI from scaling up four sets of N…
