A quantitative epidemiological approach was applied to estimate obesity-attributable YLL in Brazil from 2014 to\n2023. Mortality data were obtained from the Mortality Information System, and demographic projections were sourced from\nthe Brazilian Institute of Geography and Statistics. The YLL was calculated by multiplying the number of deaths by the remaining\nlife expectancy (using 2021 Global Burden of Disease reference tables), stratified by age and sex. Statistical analyses were\nconducted using R software and Python, with results presented as rates per 100,000 population. Results: The total number of\nevents exhibited an upward trend over the decade, with a pronounced peak after 2020, coinciding with the COVID-19 pandemic.\nThe 50\u201359 and 60\u201369-year age groups consistently demonstrated the highest event frequencies. Sex-specific analyses\nrevealed variations across age groups and years. Events were rare among those aged 1\u201314 but increased from age 15\u201319 onwards.\nAmong older age groups (40\u201369 years), females exhibited higher rates than males, particularly in the 60\u201369-age bracket.\nConclusion: This study demonstrates an increasing trend in obesity-related premature mortality in Brazil, disproportionately\naffecting older populations and necessitating targeted public health interventions.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.20945\/2359-4292-2026-0087","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2026,8,14]],"date-time":"2026-08-14T18:24:15Z","timestamp":1786731855000},"page":"1-7","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":0,"title":["Impact of premature mortality attributable to obesity on years of life lost in Brazil"],"prefix":"10.20945","volume":"70","author":[{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-7714-0330","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Lu\u00eds Jesuino de Oliveira","family":"Andrade","sequence":"first","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-8042-0261","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Gabriela Correia Matos","family":"de Oliveira","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0009-0002-1859-0478","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Osmario Jorge de Mattos","family":"Salles","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0003-0506-9210","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Alcina Maria Vinhaes","family":"Bittencourt","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0003-4854-6910","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Lu\u00eds Matos","family":"de Oliveira","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"8510","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2026]]},"container-title":["Archives of Endocrinology and Metabolism"],"original-title":[],"link":[{"URL":"https:\/\/www.aem-sbem.com\/article\/impact-of-premature-mortality-attributable-to-obesity-on-years-of-life-lost-in-brazil\/","content-type":"unspecified","content-version":"vor","intended-application":"similarity-checking"}],"deposited":{"date-parts":[[2026,8,14]],"date-time":"2026-08-14T18:24:16Z","timestamp":1786731856000},"score":1,"resource":{"primary":{"URL":"https:\/\/www.aem-sbem.com\/article\/impact-of-premature-mortality-attributable-to-obesity-on-years-of-life-lost-in-brazil\/"}},"subtitle":[],"short-title":[],"issued":{"date-parts":[[2026]]},"references-count":0,"journal-issue":{"issue":"5","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2026]]},"published-print":{"date-parts":[[2026]]}},"URL":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.20945\/2359-4292-2026-0087","relation":{},"ISSN":["2359-3997"],"issn-type":[{"value":"2359-3997","type":"print"}],"subject":[],"published":{"date-parts":[[2026]]}}}
