Does the weight of an athlete matter when considering how much force they can handle? Is obesity the cause of disease or just something else that was caused by the cause of disease; whatever that actually is? Here we take a look at understanding predictors versus understanding causation and how this affects interventions for public health.

Why causality, and not prediction, should guide obesity prevention policy. Chiolero A. Lancet Public Health. 2018 Oct;3(10):e461-e462. doi: 10.1016/S2468-2667(18)30158-0. Epub 2018 Sep 1.
