Prevalence difference is the overweight prevalence in highest wealth quintile subtracted from that in lowest wealth quintile in each year, so that negative numbers for the prevalence difference indicate a higher overweight prevalence in the highest wealth quintile while positive numbers indicate higher overweight in the lowest wealth quintile.
Annualized difference in prevalence growth rate is change in prevalence over the survey period (last year minus first year) for the highest wealth quintile subtracted from that in the lowest wealth quintile divided by the number of years between the first and last survey years in each country. Negative numbers indicate faster overweight prevalence growth for the highest wealth quintile in comparison to the lowest, while positive numbers indicate faster overweight prevalence growth for the lowest quintile.
