Abstract:
This overview discusses the causes and contributing factors of cardiovascular disease. Apart from the conventional risk factors for cardiovascular disease diabetes, hypertension, smoking, high cholesterol, and genetic predisposition a growing body of research suggests that environmental physical and chemical factors also contribute significantly to the rising incidence of non-communicable diseases. In the area, heart disease, or "CD," continues to be the leading cause of mortality. Premature deaths, or cardiovascular deaths in people under 72 years of age, are especially alarming since they represent approximately 60 million years of life that may be lost to the disease annually in Europe. To estimate the global health burden of cardiovascular disease, continuous surveillance and monitoring should form the foundation for the creation and execution of evidence-based prevention and treatment initiatives.
