  • Assessing knowledge and attitudes toward childhood obesity among Syrian refugees in Al Za’atari refugee camp

    Open AccessBalqees Shahin, Nour Mahrouseh et al.ARTICLEFrontiers in Public Health2026

    Background: Childhood obesity is a growing global concern, particularly among conflict-affected populations. In contexts such as Al Za'atari Refugee Camp, monotonous diets, dependence on food aid, and low levels of physical activity all increase the risk of obesity. When combined with low health literacy, these conditions contribute to a double burden of malnutrition. Yet little is known about how displaced families themselves understand childhoo…

  • Potential impact of increasing physical activity on NCD mortality in the EU

    Open AccessAbdu Nafan Aisul Muhlis, Nour Mahrouseh et al.ARTICLEBMJ Global Health2026

    BACKGROUND: Physical inactivity affects 36.2% of adults in the European Union (EU), contributing substantially to the burden of non-communicable diseases (NCDs). The WHO's Global Action Plan on Physical Activity 2018-2030 targets a 15% relative reduction in physical inactivity by 2030, supporting Sustainable Development Goal (SDG) 3.4.1 to achieve over 30% reduction in premature NCD mortality. This study estimates the number of averted deaths, pr…

  • The role of burden of disease estimates in European Union Health policymaking

    Open AccessJosé Chen-Xu, Diana Grad et al.ARTICLEHealth Policy2025

    BACKGROUND: The use of burden of disease (BoD) metrics in policymaking is crucial for evidence-based decision-making. However, there is currently no information available regarding their utilisation in policies at the European level. OBJECTIVE: This study aimed to analyse the use of BoD metrics within the European legislation. METHODS: Systematic searches on EUR-Lex were conducted for documents published between 2004 and 2023, to account for Euro…

  • Estimating years of life lost due to premature mortality at regional level in France in 2017, using a probabilistic redistribution approach

    Open AccessRomana Haneef, Aline Scohy et al.ARTICLEBMC Public Health2025

    We quantified the full mortality burden for the first time in France at regional level, based on a new probabilistic redistribution method developed by researchers from Sciensano before COVID-19 pandemic. These estimates are important for future investigations on the contribution of social inequalities and risk factors to all-cause mortality in France with a focus on regional differences

  • Inequalities in the burden of non-communicable diseases across European countries

    Open AccessCarlos Alexandre Soares Andrade, Nour Mahrouseh et al.ARTICLEInternational Journal for Equity…2023

    The inequality in level 1 NCDs DALYs rate is relatively low among all the countries. CVDs, digestive diseases, diabetes and kidney diseases, substance use disorders, and chronic respiratory diseases are the NCDs that exhibit higher levels of inequality across countries in the EEA. This might be mitigated by applying tailored preventive measures and enabling healthcare access

  • How the European Union legislations are tackling the burden of diabetes mellitus

    Open AccessNour Mahrouseh, Szabolcs Lovas et al.ARTICLEFrontiers in Public Health2022

    Introduction: Surveillance of the European Union's (EU) legislations on the prevention of diabetes mellitus (DM) is needed, to more effectively tackle the rising prevalence of DM. Methods: This legal surveillance was carried out through a systematic search and screening, using EUR-Lex database to identify treaties, acts, and other legal documents for prevention of DM, non-communicable diseases (NCDs) and obesity, followed by their content analysi…
