Description |
Heart disease is one of the foremost reasons behind mortality and morbidity globally. It is a major economic burden especially in low and middle-income countries (LMICs). Different types of cardiovascular diseases may occur in the heart or blood vessels. Functionally, heart disease is the difficulty of the heart to pump sufficient blood to meet the metabolic needs of the body. It can occur quickly as with an AMI or progress gradually over years as with chronic HF. In each case, the heart is unable to efficiently or effectively contract making it more difficult to maintain cardiac output.Mortality resulting from cardiovascular diseases stood at about 17.1 million in 2004, representing 29% of all global deaths, and as estimated by WHO, about 23.6 million individuals will die each year from cardiovascular diseases by 2030. Hence, primary and secondary prevention of CVD are public health priorities (1). To prevent and control cardiovascular diseases, significant efforts have been made to understand the pathogenesis of such diseases. Generally, these diseases result from the crosstalk between lifestyle risk factors, environmental cues and the inherent intracellular system. Therefore, the pathogenesis of cardiovascular diseases is complicated (2). |
