چکیده
non-communicable disease (ncd) accounts for a large and increasing burden of disease worldwide. it is currently estimated that ncds accounts for approximately 59% of global deaths and 43% of the global disease burden; this is projected to increase to 73% of deaths and 60% of disease burden by 2020. 1 in comparison, ncds in low- and middle-income populations accounts for 78% of the global ncd burden and for 85% of the global cvd burden of disease. 2 cardiovascular disease (cvd) is the most important single cause of ncd, accounting in 2001 for 29% of all deaths and 10% of the global disease burden. 3 the incidence of cvd has been rising steadily in low- and middle-income populations, so that approximately three-quarters of global deaths from cvd now occur in that populations. 4
