Separation by country-income level have been based on World Banking categorization. For more detail see Methods section.

HAQ index, healthcare access and quality index; HICs, high-income countries; High FPG, high fasting plasma glucose are expressed as age-standardised summary exposure values (0–100) summary exposure values (0–100); High LDL-c, high low-density lipoprotein cholesterol; LICs, low-income countries; MICs, middle-income countries; SDI, sociodemographic index.
