Abstract Aims The 2019 report from the European Society of Cardiology (ESC) Atlas provides a contemporary analysis cardiovascular disease (CVD) statistics across 56 member countries, with particular emphasis on international inequalities in burden and healthcare delivery together estimates progress towards meeting 2025 World Health Organization (WHO) non-communicable targets. Methods results In this report, CVD are presented for countries ESC. drawn ESC which is repository data variety...
Abstract Aims This report from the European Society of Cardiology (ESC) Atlas Project updates and expands upon widely cited 2019 in presenting cardiovascular disease (CVD) statistics for 57 ESC member countries. Methods results Statistics pertaining to 2019, or latest available year, are presented. Data sources include World Health Organization, Institute Metrics Evaluation, Bank, novel sponsored data on human capital infrastructure healthcare delivery. New material this includes...
Background: Valvular heart disease (VHD) is an important cause of mortality and morbidity has been subject to changes in management. The VHD II survey was designed by the EURObservational Research Programme European Society Cardiology analyze actual management compare practice with guidelines. Methods: Patients severe native or previous valvular intervention were enrolled prospectively across 28 countries over a 3-month period 2017. Indications for considered concordant if performed...
1.1. Cardiovascular disease and dyslipidemia: prevalence global economic impact Cardiovascular diseases (CVDs) are the leading cause of mortality worldwide, reaching 31% deaths in 2012 [1]. In particular, atherosclerosis ischemic heart (IHD) main causes premature death Europe responsible for 42% women 38% men under 75 years old [2]. The impact CVD is estimated to have been US $906 billion 2015 expected rise by 22% 2030 [3]. also represent major disability developed countries. It has that...
Abstract Aims There is good evidence showing that inactivity and walking minimal steps/day increase the risk of cardiovascular (CV) disease general ill-health. The optimal number steps their role in health is, however, still unclear. Therefore, this meta-analysis, we aimed to evaluate relationship between step count all-cause mortality CV mortality. Methods results We systematically searched relevant electronic databases from inception until 12 June 2022. main endpoints were An...
Abstract This report from the European Society of Cardiology (ESC) Atlas Project updates and expands upon 2021 in presenting cardiovascular disease (CVD) statistics for ESC member countries. paper examines inequalities healthcare outcomes countries utilizing mortality risk factor data World Health Organization Global Burden Disease study with additional economic Bank. Cardiovascular were collected by questionnaire circulated to national cardiac societies Statistics pertaining 2022, or latest...
Proteins play a crucial role in metabolism, maintaining fluid and acid-base balance antibody synthesis. Dietary proteins are important nutrients classified into: 1) animal (meat, fish, poultry, eggs dairy), and, 2) plant (legumes, nuts soy). modification is one of the most lifestyle changes that has been shown to significantly decrease risk cardiovascular (CV) disease (CVD) by attenuating related factors. The CVD burden reduced optimum diet through replacement unprocessed meat with low...
Abstract Aims The aim of this study was to determine the contemporary use reperfusion therapy in European Society Cardiology (ESC) member and affiliated countries adherence ESC clinical practice guidelines patients with ST-elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI). Methods results Prospective cohort (EURObservational Research Programme STEMI Registry) hospitalized symptom onset <24 h 196 centres across 29 countries. A total 11 462 were enrolled, for whom primary percutaneous coronary...
Atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease (ASCVD) and consequent acute coronary syndromes (ACS) are substantial contributors to morbidity mortality across Europe. Fortunately, as much two thirds of this disease's burden is modifiable, in particular by lipid-lowering therapy (LLT). Current guidelines based on the sound premise that, with respect low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C), "lower better for longer", recent data have strongly emphasised need also "the earlier better". In addition...
ABSTRACT Background and Aims The assessment of left ventricular (LV) outflow velocity time integral (LVOT‐VTI) has gained favor in the stratification patients with heart failure (HF). We evaluated prognostic significance LVOT‐VTI compared commonly used indices LV outflow: cardiac index (CI) stroke volume (SVI), their reproducibility cut‐off values. Methods Results A total 424 outpatients diagnosed HF systolic dysfunction (LV ejection fraction < 50%) underwent a Doppler echocardiographic...
Takotsubo syndrome (TTS) still remains as an enigmatic phenomenon. In particular, long-term challenges (including clinical recurrence and persistent symptoms) specific entities in the setting of TTS have been evolving areas interest. On other hand, a significant gap exists regarding proper risk-stratification this phenomenon short long terms. The present paper, second part (part-2) consensus report, aims to discuss less well-known aspects including entities, after recovery risk-stratification.
