  1. I2 values of 0%, 25%, 50%, and 75% were respectively considered as no, low, moderate, and high heterogeneity
  2. The following sites could not be included in the analysis due to a low number of participants reporting comorbidity or with singularity in the data: Blantyre (Malawi) for CVD, Cotonu (Benin) for diabetes, Guangzhou (China) for diabetes, Ife (Nigeria) for CVD, diabetes and hypertension, Mumbai (India) for CVD, Nampicuan Talugtug (Philippines) for diabetes, Naryn (Kyrgyztan) for diabetes, Penang (Malaysia) for CVD, Pune (India) for CVD and diabetes, Srinagar (India) for CVD and diabetes
