Prevalence and influencing factors of overweight and obesity in a Chinese rural population: the Henan Rural Cohort Study
Abstract The study aimed to estimate prevalence and influencing factors of overweight, general obesity, and abdominal obesity in rural areas of China. A total of 39034 participants aged 18 to 79 years were enrolled from the Henan Rural Cohort Study for the cross-sectional study. The age-standardized...
