Replication Data and R Code for "Could Plant-Based Protein and Fiber Be the Key to Combating Cardiovascular Diseases? An Assessment of Developed and Developing OECD Countries"

This repository contains the R scripts and country-level panel dataset used for all analyses in the manuscript entitled "Could Plant-Based Protein and Fiber Be the Key to Combating Cardiovascular Diseases? An Assessment of Developed and Developing OECD Countries". The code enables full replication of all data processing, statistical analyses (including PCA, clustering, time series forecasting, and dynamic panel regression), and the generation of all figures and tables reported in the article. The dataset was compiled from publicly available sources as described in the manuscript. The R scripts and data files provided in this repository are made available exclusively for the purposes of peer review, reproducibility, and validation of the analyses presented in the associated manuscript. Any use of these materials for new research projects, publications, derivative works, or for any other purpose beyond the scope of reviewing this manuscript is strictly prohibited without explicit written permission from the corresponding author.
