In contrast, higher levels of physical activity and active transportation showed inverse association with overweight and obesity. No significant associations were observed with private vehicle ownership, access to parks and green spaces, housing conditions, or access to physician and nutritionist services.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Conclusion<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>Socioeconomic determinants play a pivotal role in shaping overweight and obesity among adults in southern Tehran. Modifiable factors, particularly physical activity and active transportation, should be prioritized in obesity prevention strategies. Public health policies aimed at enhancing neighborhood safety, improving walking and cycling infrastructure, and increasing awareness of lifestyle\u2010related risks may contribute to reducing obesity prevalence in socioeconomically diverse urban settings. Importantly, effective and sustainable implementation of these measures requires strong political commitment and intersectoral collaboration across health, transportation, urban planning, and community development sectors.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>","DOI":"10.1002\/hsr2.73216","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2026,9,16]],"date-time":"2026-09-16T04:50:52Z","timestamp":1789534252000},"update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1002\/crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":0,"title":["Socioeconomic Determinants Associated With Overweight and Obesity in Adults in Southern Tehran: A Cross\u2010Sectional Study"],"prefix":"10.1002","volume":"9","author":[{"given":"Shahla","family":"Arameshiyan","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Health Education and Promotion, School of Public Health Tehran University of Medical Sciences Tehran Iran"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Masud","family":"Yunesian","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Environmental Health Engineering, School of Public Health, and Center for Air Pollution Research, Institute for Environmental Research Tehran University of Medical Sciences Tehran Iran"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-7417-2417","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Alireza","family":"Oliyaimanesh","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Health Equity Research Center &amp; National Institute of Health Research Tehran University of Medical Sciences Tehran Iran"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Najmeh Almolouk","family":"Amini","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Health Information Management, School of Allied Medical Sciences Tehran University of Medical Sciences Tehran Iran"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-4594-5513","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Mahnaz","family":"Ashoorkhani","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Health Education and Promotion, School of Public Health, Tehran University of Medical Sciences, and Community Based Participatory Research Center Tehran University of Medical Sciences Tehran Iran"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"311","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2026,9,15]]},"reference":[{"key":"e_1_2_11_2_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1186\/s12889-024-19184-4"},{"issue":"5","key":"e_1_2_11_3_1","article-title":"Curcumin as a Novel Agent Targeting Adipose Tissue, Lipid Metabolism, and Inflammatory Pathways in Obesity: A Narrative Review","volume":"2","author":"Sedighiyan M.","year":"2016","journal-title":"Journal of Nutritional Sciences and Dietetics"},{"key":"e_1_2_11_4_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1128\/mBio.03341-19"},{"key":"e_1_2_11_5_1","article-title":"World Obesity Atlas 2023","author":"Lobstein T.
