YLDs averted per unit of intervention: estimates from linear regression models
| Intervention (units) | YLDs averted per unit of intervention, 95% CI | ||
|---|---|---|---|
| Estimate | LCL | UCL | |
| Reduction in log-transformed BMI (0.1) | 27,993 | 23,373 | 32,614 |
| Reduction in occupational risk (1%) | 19,416 | 16,275 | 22,557 |
| Exercise participation (1%) | 26,058 | 22,455 | 29,661 |
For the BMI intervention the unit is 0.1 log BMI. For the occupational and exercise interventions, the unit is 1.0%. YLD Years lived with disability, BMI Body mass index, CI Confidence interval, LCL Lower 95% confidence limit, UCL Upper 95% confidence limit
