The burden of cardiovascular diseases (CVDs) remains unclear in many regions the world. GBD (Global Burden Disease) 2015 study integrated data on disease incidence, prevalence, and mortality to produce consistent, up-to-date estimates for burden. CVD was estimated from vital registration verbal autopsy data. prevalence using modeling software health surveys, prospective cohorts, system administrative data, registries. Years lived with disability (YLD) were by multiplying weights. life lost...
Comparable data on the global and country-specific burden of neurological disorders their trends are crucial for health-care planning resource allocation. The Global Burden Diseases, Injuries, Risk Factors (GBD) Study provides such information but does not routinely aggregate results that interest to clinicians specialising in conditions. In this systematic analysis, we quantified disease due 2015 its relationship with country development level.We estimated prevalence, mortality,...
<h2>Summary</h2><h3>Background</h3> Cirrhosis and other chronic liver diseases (collectively referred to as cirrhosis in this paper) are a major cause of morbidity mortality globally, although the burden underlying causes differ across locations demographic groups. We report on results from Global Burden Diseases, Injuries, Risk Factors Study (GBD) 2017 its trends since 1990, by cause, sex, age, for 195 countries territories. <h3>Methods</h3> used data vital registrations, registration...
18% of the world's population lives in India, and many states India have populations similar to those large countries. Action effectively improve health requires availability reliable comprehensive state-level estimates disease burden risk factors over time. Such not been available so far for all major diseases factors. Thus, we aimed estimate every state as part Global Burden Disease (GBD) Study 2016.Using data sources, State-Level Initiative estimated (metrics were deaths,...
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 literature focuses on mortality among children younger than 5 years. Comparable information nonfatal health outcomes these and the fatal burden of diseases injuries older adolescents is scarce.
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.
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....
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...

The inverse graded relationship of education and risk factors coronary heart disease (CHD) has been reported from Western populations. To examine whether CHD are predicted by level influenced the urbanization in Indian industrial populations, a cross-sectional survey ( n = 19,973; response rate, 87.6%) was carried out among employees their family members 10 medium-to-large industries highly urban, periurban regions India. Information on behavioral, clinical, biochemical obtained through...
Objective To estimate the prevalence of non-communicable disease (NCD) risk factors in Kerala. Design A community-based, cross-sectional survey. Participants In 2016–2017 a multistage, cluster sample 12 012 (aged 18–69 years) participants from all 14 districts Kerala were studied. Main outcome measures NCD as stipulated WHO’s approach to surveillance Parameters that studied included physical activity score, anthropometry, blood pressure (BP), and fasting glucose (FBG) morning urine dietary...
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,...
Recent evidence indicates that long-term visit-to-visit blood pressure variability (BPV) may be an independent cardiovascular risk predictor. The implication of this in hypertension clinical practice is unclear. BPV as average real (ARV) was calculated 14 522 treated patients with 4 time frames: year 1 (Y ), years 2 to 5 2–5 10 5–10 and >10 10+ ) from first clinic visit. Cox proportional hazards models for cause-specific mortality were used each frame separately BPV, across frames based...
Chloride (Cl-) is the major extracellular anion in body, accompanying sodium (Na+), and primarily derived from dietary sources. Data suggest that increased Cl- intake increases blood pressure, yet paradoxically, higher serum appears associated with lower mortality cardiovascular risk. This implies also reflects risk pathways independent of Na+, bicarbonate (HCO3-). We analyzed 12,968 hypertensive individuals followed up for 35 years, using Cox proportional hazards model to test whether...
Background Coronary Artery Disease (CAD) is a leading cause of death and disability in Kerala, India. Metabolic syndrome (MS) constellation established risk factors for CAD. We aimed to estimate the prevalence MS evaluate association between CAD using community-based sample population. Methods A cross-sectional community based survey was conducted urban rural areas Kerala 2011. included 5063 individuals analysis. Age standardized MS, associated diagnoses (hypertension, diabetes...
Despite high projected burden, hypertension incidence data are lacking in South Asian population. We measured prevalence and the Center for cArdio-metabolic Risk Reduction Asia (CARRS) adult cohort. The CARRS Study recruited representative samples of Chennai, Delhi, Karachi 2010/11, socio-demographic risk factor were obtained using a standard common protocol.
