Prevalence of Overweight and Obesity in People With Severe Mental Illness: Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis

Aims1) To determine the pooled prevalence of overweight and obesity in people with severe mental illness (SMI), overall and by type of SMI, geographical region, and year of data collection; and 2) to assess the likelihood of overweight and obesity, in people with SMI compared with the general popula...

This may contribute to the very high prevalence of physical health conditions and mortality in this group.
