Introduction: A British study showed that compared with other adults, 18-24 year olds have the highest risk of gaining weight, being overweight or obese in the next 10 years
.
Identifying the “key points” for obesity prevention Obesity can bring about various health problems, but the success of adult obesity prevention policies has been limited globally.
So far, the population at the highest risk of weight gain has not been identified.
Targeted policy formulation
.
Some previous studies have shown that compared with the elderly, younger age is related to the increase in body weight and BMI
.
Other studies have shown that race and gender have different effects on the increase in body weight or BMI
.
However, these previous studies were too small or did not contain the necessary information to assess multiple risk factors
.
On September 2, 2021, a sub-issue of the medical journal The Lancet published an article entitled "Identifying adults at high-risk for change in weight and BMI in England: a longitudinal, large-scale, population-based cohort study using electronic health The "records" cohort study determined that adults aged 18-24 should be the focus of obesity prevention policies
.
Adults aged 18-24 have the most potential for improvement.
In this population-based longitudinal study, the researchers obtained EHR (electronic health record) data and sociological data of nearly 2.
4 million 18-74-year-old adults of different ethnicities , And grouped them by age, calculated the longitudinal changes of BMI in 1 year, 5 years, and 10 years, and investigated the BMI grades defined by the WHO-underweight, normal weight, overweight, grade 1 obesity And grade 2 obesity and severe (grade 3) obesity-the absolute and relative risks of the transition
.
The analysis results indicate that adults in the youngest age group (18-24 years old) gain the most weight in 10 years, and are the most widely distributed among all the BMI grades defined by the WHO; at the same time, compared with older people, this Individuals in the same age group have a higher risk of transitioning to a higher BMI grade (that is, from overweight to obesity, from grade 1 obesity to grade 2 obesity, and so on) have a higher relative risk (relative risk of developing from overweight to obesity) It is 246%; the relative risk of developing from grade 1 or 2 obesity to grade 3 obesity is 687%), and gender and ethnicity do not have much influence on this
.
In addition, the author also pointed out that education, employment, and marital status will also have a certain impact on this risk
.
The author of this article, Dr.
Michail Katsoulis from the Institute of Health Informatics, University College London, said: "Our results clearly show that age is the most important sociodemographic factor in BMI changes
.
"
The co-author of this article, Professor Claudia Langenberg from the University of Cambridge School of Clinical Medicine, agrees, adding that young people “have undergone tremendous changes
in
their lives .
They may start working, go to university, or leave home for the first time.
The habit formed over the years may persist into adulthood", "As the evidence provided in our research shows, young people who have not yet reached obesity have the greatest chance of changing weight gain
.
