Mortality from Cardiometabolic Diseases Linked to High BMI in Peru

A dataset supporting a comparative risk assessment analysis of high body-mass index and mortality from cardiometabolic diseases in Peru. The data was created by author Wilmer Cristobal Guzman‐Vilca for a research manuscript. The specific temporal coverage and row count are not detailed in the provided metadata.

Use Cases

• Estimate population attributable fractions for cardiometabolic mortality based on BMI data mentioned in the description
• Model comparative risk for diseases like ischemic heart disease and stroke using the described risk assessment framework
• Analyze the public health impact of high BMI on mortality in Peru as indicated by the study's focus

Strengths

• Dataset is associated with a specific, peer-reviewed research manuscript, providing academic context.
• The data focuses on a defined public health topic: high BMI and cardiometabolic mortality in Peru.

Limitations

• Column-level documentation is absent; field semantics must be inferred after download.
• Row count is unknown, which may limit suitability assessment.
• Last update date is unknown; freshness unverified.
