Disparities in Obesity Rates among Adults: Analysis of 514 Districts in Indonesia

Abstract: Background: Globally, it was estimated that over 650 million adults 18 years old and older were obese in 2016.

“…It is possible that these factors are common among Indonesian women and do not effectively differentiate between the SUI and non-SUI groups. 23 These findings highlight the importance of considering multiple factors simultaneously when evaluating the predictive ability of a model. By incorporating various relevant risk factors into the analysis, the study was able to identify other factors that played a more significant role in predicting SUI during pregnancy in the Indonesian pregnant women population.…”

It is possible that these factors are common among Indonesian women and do not effectively differentiate between the SUI and non‐SUI groups 23 . These findings highlight the importance of considering multiple factors simultaneously when evaluating the predictive ability of a model.…”
