Air pollution is a major planetary health risk, with India estimated to have some of the worst levels globally. To inform action at subnational in India, we exposure air and its impact on deaths, disease burden, life expectancy every state 2017.We pollution, including ambient particulate matter defined as annual average gridded concentration PM2.5, household percentage households using solid cooking fuels corresponding across states accessible data from multiple sources part Global Burden...
The association of air pollution with multiple adverse health outcomes is becoming well established, but its negative economic impact less appreciated. It important to elucidate this for the states India.
The burden of diabetes is increasing rapidly in India but a systematic understanding its distribution and time trends not available for every state India. We present comprehensive analysis the heterogeneity across all states between 1990 2016.We analysed prevalence disability-adjusted life-years (DALYs) from to 2016 using data sources that could be accessed as part Global Burden Diseases, Injuries, Risk Factors Study 2016, assessed states. were placed four groups based on epidemiological...
BackgroundThe burden of cardiovascular diseases is increasing in India, but a systematic understanding its distribution and time trends across all the states not readily available. In this report, we present detailed analysis how patterns major risk factors have changed India between 1990 2016.MethodsWe analysed prevalence disability-adjusted life-years (DALYs) due to component causes from 2016, using accessible data sources as part Global Burden Diseases, Injuries, Risk Factors Study 2016....
Most data on mortality and prognostic factors in patients with heart failure come from North America Europe, little information other regions. Here, the International Congestive Heart Failure (INTER-CHF) study, we aimed to measure at 1 year Africa, China, India, Middle East, southeast Asia South America; also explored demographic, clinical, socioeconomic variables associated mortality.We enrolled consecutive (3695 [66%] clinic outpatients, 2105 [34%] hospital patients) 108 centres six...
Hypertension is the most important risk factor for cardiovascular morbidity and mortality. There limited data on hypertension prevalence in India. This study was conducted to estimate of among Indian adults. A national level survey with fixed one-day blood pressure measurement camps across 24 states union territories defined as systolic (BP) ≥140 mmHg or a diastolic BP ≥90 treatment hypertension. The age- gender-standardized according 2011 census population Blood recorded 180,335...
Objective To investigate gender discrimination in access to healthcare and its relationship with the patient’s age distance from facility. Design setting An observational study based on outpatient data a large referral public hospital Delhi, India. Participants Confirmed clinical appointments. Primary secondary outcome measures Estimates logistic regression are used compute sex ratios (male/female) of patient visits respect age. Missing female patients for each state—a measure extent...
Given the shortage of cardiac rehabilitation (CR) programs in India and poor uptake worldwide, there is an urgent need to find alternative models CR that are inexpensive may offer choice subgroups with (e.g., women elderly).This study sought evaluate effects yoga-based (Yoga-CaRe) on major cardiovascular events self-rated health a multicenter randomized controlled trial.The trial was conducted 24 medical centers across India. This recruited 3,959 patients acute myocardial infarction median...
The burden of noncommunicable diseases and their risk factors has rapidly increased worldwide, including in India. Innovative management strategies with electronic decision support task sharing have been assessed for hypertension, diabetes mellitus, depression individually, but an integrated package multiple chronic condition primary care not evaluated.In a prospective, multicenter, open-label, cluster-randomized controlled trial involving 40 community health centers, using hypertension...
Hypertension is a major cause of morbidity and mortality worldwide. Previous efforts to characterize gaps in the hypertension care continuum-including diagnosis, treatment, control-in India did not assess district-level variation. Local data are critical for planning, implementation, monitoring curb burden hypertension.To examine continuum among individuals aged 18 98 years.The nationally representative Fifth National Family Health Survey study was conducted 2 phases from June 17, 2019,...
Introduction: There are few data on heart failure (HF) burden and none available the community prevalence of HF in India. We conducted a study aimed at determining rural as well tertiary hospital care setting North also reviewed existing literature regarding estimated projected Methodology: All adults (>20 years) with chronic breathlessness six villages under primary health center Northern India were identified evaluated standardized questionnaire physical examination by trained workers. was...
<h3>Background and objectives</h3> Despite being one of the leading risk factors cardiovascular mortality, there are limited data on changes in hypertension burden management from India. This study evaluates trend prevalence, awareness, treatment control urban rural areas India's National Capital Region (NCR). <h3>Design setting</h3> Two representative cross-sectional surveys were conducted (survey 1 (1991–1994); survey 2 (2010–2012)) NCR using similar methodologies. <h3>Participants</h3> A...
Cigarette smoking is a leading preventable risk factor for the development and progression of cardiovascular diseases (CVDs). Epidemiologic studies conclusively prove that both active secondhand smoke contribute significantly to morbidity mortality related CVD. mixture several toxic chemicals, which nicotine, carbon monoxide, oxidant chemicals are most commonly implicated in pathogenesis disease. Tobacco causes endothelial dysfunction, inflammation, insulin resistance, alteration lipid...

Methods Results development was carried out using mixed methods five Centers. subsequently evaluated pre–post evaluation design. During intervention,...
Abstract Aims Limited data on the uptake of guideline‐directed medical therapies (GDMTs) and mortality acute decompensated HF (ADHF) patients are available from India. The National Heart Failure Registry (NHFR) aimed to assess clinical presentation, practice patterns, ADHF in Methods results NHFR is a facility‐based, multi‐centre registry consecutive with prospective follow‐up. Fifty three tertiary care hospitals 21 states India participated NHFR. All who satisfied European Society...
Aim and background: High-quality cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) is associated with improved patient outcomes, but healthcare workers (HCWs) may be frequently undertrained.This study aimed to assess baseline knowledge skills among HCWs about basic advanced life support the effect of simulation-based training on it.Methods: It was a single-center prospective quasi-interventional resident doctors nurses at Tertiary Center in New Delhi, India.A questionnaire-based assessment done...
