Articles Review
Article One
Q1
The research problem is the increase in overweight and obesity in recent years.
Q2
The goal is to determine the relationship between the prevalence of overweight and obesity in India because of the increase experienced recently. What is the expected relationship between the two variables in the future?
Q3
The researchers used a multi-state life table to forecast obesity and overweight among Indians about 20 to 69 years in age, sex, and residential areas (Pan et al., 2012).
Q4
The main finding is that overweight and obesity are set to increase in India by 2040, especially for the old and rural citizens.
Q5
The research can be used to warn people of expected obesity so that they can change their lifestyles.
Article Two
Q1
Insecurity and obesity are serious public health issues that can be mitigated by policies, programs, and environmental strategies.
Q2
To address the gaps in food security, research on obesity, and strategies for addressing the public health issue (Brown et al., 2019).
Q3
The research used past research to determine some of the challenges that have been experienced as the gaps.
Q4
Several gaps exist, like the relationship between food insecurity, weight, diets, and impact on the vulnerable populations.
Q5
The research can help in improving future research by filling in the gaps that have been identified.
Article Three
Q1
The research problem is the high prevalence of obesity that exists among adults who are faced with food insecurity.
Q2
Determine the link between food stress and obesity to deal with food insecurity.
Q3
A survey designed in a telephone interview, a study sample of food insecurity, and analyzed using the SAS-Callable SUDAAN (Luhar et al., 2020).
Q4
One in three food-insecure adults was obese and associated with the overall population, especially the subgroups.
Q5
The findings can be used to address the issue of food security in adults to deal with obesity. The main issue is to avoid cases of overcompensation when food is available for food-insecure people.
Article Four
Q1
Obesity is a public health issue that affects more than half a billion people worldwide, and the number is rising.
Q2
Compare the mean body mass index trends in the developing countries to determine how the low socioeconomic areas can contribute to obesity and low physical activity (Bhurosy & Jeewon, 2014).
Q3
Available BMI data on the WHO categorized areas for analysis and comparison.
Q4
The prevalence of obesity is on the rise for all genders, although BMI is higher than that of males for females. It is predicted that the current trend will increase in developing countries and even go beyond the maximum BMI.
Q5
The findings can be used to address the issue of obesity in developing countries to impact relevant policies, education, and physical exercise programs.
Article five
Q1
Escalation of the statistics of obesity proves the trend to be a true pandemic that needs attention to address it.
Q2
Outline the key points of obesity in the developing countries and use the Gambia to reference its statistics.
Q3
Past surveys one was done in 1995, and the second survey was done in 1996 while considering the recent surveys (Prentice, 2016). The research also used previous research for analysis.
Q4
Obesity in Ghana is six times as common in women as compared men, in Morocco, it is four times, and in South Africa, it is three times.
