1 Department of Public Health and Caring Sciences (IFV) 3rd Congress on Preconception Health and Care Uppsala February 2016 PEACE Tool Population Estimates of Attributable Fraction for Congenital Conditions Everywhere Pierpaolo Mastroiacovo and Lorenzo Botto
2 Foreword The aim of Preconception Health and Care: to decrease the prevalence of adverse reproductive outcomes (AROs) Mastroiacovo - Botto 2
3 To reach this aim we need to decrease the prevalence of preconception risk factors Risk Factor Nutrition Over- & under-weight Insufficient Folic acid Smoking Alcohol Illicit substances Stress Chronic disease Infectious disease Medications Chemicals Age at conception Mastroiacovo - Botto 3
4 By decreasing the prevalence of a preconceptional risk factor we can, yes, WE CAN decrease several AROs, including some adult diseases Risk Factor Infertility Pregnancy Disease Malformation Develop Disability Preterm Birth Nutrition X X X X X X Over- & under-weight X X X X X X X Insufficient Folic acid X X X X X X Smoking X X X X X X X Alcohol X X X X X X Illicit substances X X X X X X Stress X X X X Chronic disease X X X X X X Infectious disease X X X X X X Medications X X X X Chemicals X X X X X X X Age at conception X X X X X X IUGR Evidence of the causal link between risk factor and outcome is variable Adult Disease Mastroiacovo - Botto 4
5 Key Challenge Poor visibility of primary prevention opportunities offered by Preconception Health and Care In particular for Health Policy Makers Mastroiacovo - Botto 5
6 The metric, typically provided by research articles, is the relative increase of risk of a particular outcome associated with a particular risk factor [RR (Relative Risk) or its approximation, the OR (Odds Ratio)] this metric represents the strength of the association between risk factor and outcome 1.60 ( ) 1.43 ( ) 1.49 ( ) 12.7 ( ) Mastroiacovo - Botto 6
7 Fine... but policy makers want to know How many cases does this risk factor cause in my country? How many cases could be prevented if the prevention program is implemented? How much money could I save? Mastroiacovo - Botto 7
8 The answer to these questions needs Population Attributable Fraction (PAF) to start from: The proportion (%) of adverse outcomes that would be prevented if the risk factor was eliminated Outcome Incidence before the preconception program Exposure eliminated [Before ] [After] [Before] Outcome Incidence after the preconception program Mastroiacovo - Botto 8
9 How the PAF is computed? Two metrics are needed PAF = ( OR 1 ) x P exposure [(OR 1) + 1] x P exposure Note: this is one way to compute the PAF, using OR as estimate of risk Mastroiacovo - Botto 9
10 The Odds Ratio is provided by a suitable study, preferably a well-done meta-analysis of several high quality studies Simeone RM et al. Diabetes and congenital heart defects: a systematic review, meta-analysis, and modeling project. Am J Prev Med Feb;48(2): Mastroiacovo - Botto 10
11 The prevalence of exposure (P exp ) is given by a well-done survey not too difficult to do Before pregnancy During pregnancy Soon after birth After birth Mastroiacovo - Botto 11
12 or, better, by an ongoing surveillance program for example, the PRAMS system in the United States After delivery Includes Preconception Indicators Mastroiacovo - Botto 12
13 Population Attributable Fraction (PAF) Knowing the two metrics (OR and P exp ) for a risk factor, we can estimate its Population Impact : the Population Attributable Fraction (PAF) 100% 90% OR: 20 OR: 10 80% OR: 5 70% OR: 3 60% 50% OR: 2 40% 30% 20% 10% 0% 0% 1% 10% 100% Population Prevalence of Risk Factor (logarithmic scale) Mastroiacovo - Botto 13
14 Population Attributable Fraction (PAF) Examples 100% 90% 80% 70% As you can see even a small OR may have a great impact, with sufficiently high risk factor prevalence OR: 20 OR: 10 OR: 5 OR: 3 Insufficient FA & NTDs Pr= 100% OR= 3.57 PAF= 72% N= % 50% 40% 30% OR: 2 Obesity & SB Pr= 40% OR= 2.24 PAF= 33% N= % 10% 0% 0% 1% 10% 100% Population Prevalence of Risk Factor (logarithmic scale) Valproate & SB Pr= 0.1% OR= 12.7 PAF= 1.2% N= 6 In this example, in 1 million births N of spina bifida is 503 Number of cases (N) computed on 1 million births Mastroiacovo - Botto 14
