Overview
Aim: To estimate and compare the 2016 numbers and proportions of deaths from selected types of malignant neoplasms attributable to high body mass index (BMI) from 2008 in the Czech and Slovak populations.
Material and methods: The estimated impact of overweight and obesity on the risk of malignant neoplasms in the Czech and Slovak populations was calculated using the population attributable fraction (PAF).
Results: It is estimated that 2 120 deaths in the Czech Republic and 1 073 deaths in the Slovak Republic in 2016 could be attributable to high BMI. The highest PAF was observed for oesophagal adenocarcinoma in all age categories regardless of sex and country.
Conclusions: It can be stated that high BMI has an impact on selected types of malignant neoplasms. A generally higher PAF was observed for females. At the same time, females showed an increasing PAF with increasing age. This can be explained by weight increase with age in the ageing female population.
