A potential explanation for the secular trend may be that while improved treatment for
cardiovascular risk factors or complicating

cardiovascular disease, and dyslipidemia,15,19 - 22 obese
individuals may have had a
higher selective decrease in mortality.18 Indirect evidence
of this effect is seen in the findings as the deaths occur
at similar time periods in the 3 cohorts, but cohorts recruited
at later periods have an increase in the BMI associated with the lowest mortality, possibly suggesting a period effect related to changes in clinical practice, such as improved treatments, or general public health status, such as decreased smoking or increased physical activity.
