Bibliometric analysis reveals a severe mismatch between cardiovascular disease burden and research output in low-income countries, highlighting the need for targeted global funding.
A glaring disparity in research output and disease burden persists. While LI-LMICs contribute to the majority of DALYs and mortality from CVD globally, their contribution to research output remains the lowest. These data call on national health budgets and international funding support to allocate funds to strengthen research capacity and translational research to impact CVD burden in LI-LMICs.
