AimThe objective of this study is to evaluate the mean body mass index (BMI), general obesity and abdominal obesity in adults aged ≥40 years residing in China in 2020, and to analyse variations in these factors across different geographic areas and subpopulations.MethodsWe utilized data from the National Stroke High‐Risk Population Screening programme to calculate and compare the mean BMI and prevalence of obesity across various demographics, including sex, age, urban‐rural locality, geographical region (province) and ethnicity status.ResultsIn our study, we found that the standardized mean BMI level was 24.65 kg/m2 [95% confidence interval (CI): 24.50‐22.84] in men and 24.31 kg/m2 (95% CI: 24.15‐24.45) in women. Using the criteria from China, we found that the standardized prevalence of general obesity and abdominal obesity was 13.13% (95% CI: 13.05‐13.21%) and 33.03% (95 CI: 32.92‐33.14%), respectively. Our study also identified significant effects of age, sex, urban‐rural locality, province and ethnicity status on the prevalence of obesity. Overall, our study estimated that in 2020, approximately 91.1 million adults aged ≥40 years in China were obese (46.5 million men and 44.6 million women), while 229.2 million adults (110.4 million men and 118.8 million women) were diagnosed with abdominal obesity.ConclusionOur research has revealed compelling new evidence about the obesity epidemic among Chinese adults aged ≥40 years, particularly at the provincial and ethnic levels. As a result, more targeted and effective prevention strategies should be developed to alleviate the burden of obesity.

Background: Anthocyanins have gained significant attention in recent years due to their diverse physiological benefits, which include antioxidant and anti-inflammatory properties. However, research on the impact of pure anthocyanin compounds on lifespan under different stress conditions, remains a relatively unexplored area. This study aimed to investigate the influence of cyanidin-3-glucoside (C3G), a pure anthocyanin compound found in common plants, on the lifespan of Drosophila melanogaster (fruit flies) subjected to stress (i.e. energy deprivation and heat stress) and nonstress conditions. Methods: Flies were exposed to various concentrations of C3G from the time of hatching until natural death for the lifespan assay. For stress assays, a separate cohort of male and female flies was subjected to daily heat stress or food deprivation, and their survival was monitored. Results: We found out that C3G prolonged the lifespan of fruit flies in the presence or absence of heat stress. Interestingly, under energy-deprived conditions, lifespan extension was not evident, and a high dose of C3G even led to a shorter lifespan. Moreover, we observed that the sex of the flies did not significantly influence the lifespan modulation by C3G, regardless of whether they were subjected to stress or nonstress conditions. Conclusion: Overall, these findings suggest that C3G may offer promising benefits in enhancing lifespan under certain conditions, while caution should be exercised in dosage selection, especially in energy-deprived scenarios. Further investigations are required to elucidate the underlying mechanisms responsible for the multifaceted effects of C3G on lifespan, thereby exploring its potential applications in promoting longevity and mitigating stress-related challenges.
