Background: The increasing burden of noncommunicable diseases (NCDs) has been seen as a significant development barrier in the twenty-first-century era. In 2016, nearly 4.1 crore mortalities happened due to only, equivalent 71% overall 5.7 deaths.Most these were triggered by four main NCDs, like cardiovascular disease, cancer, chronic respiratory disease and diabetes. These NCDs have become one...

Abstract The present study analyzed trends in premature mortality from Noncommunicable diseases (NCDs) between 1990 and 2019, the projections up to 2030, risk factors (RFs) attributable these Community of Portuguese Language Countries (CPLP). Estimates Global Burden Disease (GBD) analysis burden due NCDs were used for nine CPLP countries, applying age-standardized rates, using RStudio. Portugal...

Hypertension is prevalent all around the world; one in three adults lives with hypertension [1]. Hypertension is a major risk factor for cardiovascular disease [2], which is the leading cause of death among older Africans. The burden of cardiovascular disease is estimated to be twice as high in 2020 as it was in 1999 with severe negative impact on the economic development in many ways, includin...

According to the World Health Organization (WHO), chronic diseases (also called Noncommunicable Diseases, NCDs) are of long duration and generally with slow progression. NCDs include mainly cardiovascular diseases, cancers, chronic respiratory diseases and diabetes, and they are the world's most common diseases. A total of 38 million people die from chronic diseases each year, and almost three ...

Although prolonged sitting appears as a novel risk factor related to health outcomes for all ages, its association needs to be replicated in occupational conditions. This study explored the associations between sedentary behavior and four noncommunicable diseases (NCDs) as well as two cardiometabolic risk factors (CMRFs) among workers in a petroleum company, Thailand. All workers were invited t...

ABSTRACT: Objective: To estimate premature mortality due to noncommunicable diseases (NCDs) in Brazilian municipalities. Methods: This ecological study estimated rates cardiovascular diseases, chronic respiratory cancer and diabetes municipalities, for the three-year periods of 2010 2012 2015 2017, it analyzed spatial temporal distribution these rates. Data treatment combined proportional redis...

Eighty percent of the global 17 million deaths due to cardiovascular disease (CVD) occur in low and middle income countries (LMICs). The burden of CVD and other noncommunicable diseases (NCDs) is expected to markedly increase because of the global aging of the population and increasing exposure to detrimental lifestylerelated risk in LMICs. Interventions to reduce four main risks related to mod...

Previous attempts to determine the degree to which exposure to environmental factors contribute to noncommunicable diseases (NCDs) have been very conservative and have significantly underestimated the actual contribution of the environment for at least two reasons. Firstly, most previous reports have excluded the contribution of lifestyle behavioral risk factors, but these usually involve signi...

BACKGROUND Noncommunicable diseases (NCDs) are the major global cause of morbidity and mortality. In Mongolia, a number of health policies have been developed targeting the prevention and control of noncommunicable diseases. This paper aimed to evaluate the extent to which NCD-related policies introduced in Mongolia align with the World Health Organization (WHO) 2008-2013 Action Plan for the Gl...
