摘要

Objectives

The consumption of sugar-sweetened beverages (SSBs) is recognized as a significant risk factor for chronic non-communicable diseases (NCDs). Accurate estimates of the burden of SSBs are crucial for preventing, controlling, and treating associated diseases to achieve the Third United Nations Sustainable Development Goal of reducing premature mortality from NCDs by one-third by 2030. In this study, we aim to systematically assess the regional patterns and trends in the burden of SSBs in the North Africa and the Middle East (NAME) region. By analyzing regional differences, the study identifies specific areas where SSBs consumption has a more significant impact on public health.

Methods

The study data were retrieved from the Global Burden of Disease (GBD) study 2021. This study analyzed the impact of SSBs on mortality, years lived with disability, years of life lost, and disability-adjusted life years (DALYs) in 21 countries in the NAME region from 1990 to 2021. Our analysis considered various factors, including sex, age, region, and socio-demographic index.

Results

In 2021, DALYs attributable to SSBs there were 315,312 (95% uncertainty interval, 140,854 to 503,347) in absolute terms reflecting 518.3% (424.9 to 642.2) increase over three decades. From 1990 to 2021, the age-standardized rate of DALYs attributable to SSBs increased by 118.5%, from 27.9 (11.4 to 43.9) to 61.0 (27.6 to 97.0) per 100,000 population. Qatar (246.7 [113.1 to 404.5]), Saudi Arabia (201.2 [87.1 to 314.2]), and Bahrain (180.1 [78.4 to 295.8]) had the highest age-standardized rate of DALYs. The highest attributable DALYs and mortality from SSBs consumption were due to diabetes mellitus in all countries in 1990 and 2021. In 2021, Qatar (224.7 [104.9 to 365.5]), Bahrain (167.0 [74.8 to 274.8]), and Saudi Arabia (153.1 [75.3 to 230.4]) had the three highest age-standardized rates of DALYs from diabetes mellitus attributed to SSBs.

Conclusions

NAME witnessed a substantial increase in the burden attributable to SSBs. Alarmingly, exposure to SSBs has principally contributed to the increased burden of diabetes mellitus and chronic kidney disease. Among the region’s countries, exposure and attributable burden trends vary considerably. It is imperative that governments and health authorities within the NAME region work together to combat SSBs’ detrimental effects. Local, socioeconomic, and educational factors need to be considered when developing prevention and treatment strategies at the individual, community, and national levels.
