Decline in Cardiovascular Mortality
The first 60 years of the 20th century saw a remarkable transformation in health and longevity in the United States and other industrialized countries. In 1900, life expectancy in the United States was only 47.3 years (46.3 for men and 48.3 for women and only 33 for blacks). Infectious diseases such as pneumonia, influenza, tuberculosis, and gastroenteritis were the leading causes of death and ...
متن کاملExplaining the Decline in Coronary Heart Disease Mortality in the Netherlands between 1997 and 2007
OBJECTIVE We set out to determine what proportion of the mortality decline from 1997 to 2007 in coronary heart disease (CHD) in the Netherlands could be attributed to advances in medical treatment and to improvements in population-wide cardiovascular risk factors. METHODS We used the IMPACT-SEC model. Nationwide information was obtained on changes between 1997 and 2007 in the use of 42 treatm...

However, this was a smaller decline than in neighbouring countries. The aim of this modelling study was therefore to quantify the contributions of risk factor changes and the use of evidence-based medical therapies to the CHD mortality decline...
متن کاملExplaining the decline in coronary heart disease mortality in Turkey between 1995 and 2008
BACKGROUND Coronary heart disease (CHD) mortality rates have been decreasing in Turkey since the early 1990s. Our study aimed to determine how much of the CHD mortality decrease in Turkey between 1995 and 2008 could be attributed to temporal trends in major risk factors and how much to advances in medical and surgical treatments. METHODS The validated IMPACT CHD mortality model was used to co...
متن کاملExplaining the decline in coronary heart disease mortality in Portugal between 1995 and 2008.
BACKGROUND We aimed to quantify the contribution of treatments and risk factors to the decline in coronary heart disease (CHD) mortality in Portugal, 1995 to 2008. METHODS AND RESULTS The IMPACT mortality model was used to integrate data on trends in uptake of treatments and exposure to risk factors to explain the CHD mortality variation. Between 1995 and 2008, CHD mortality rates in Portugal...
