Overview

May prompt targeted CVD policies in lower-SDI countries; leaves open causal drivers and intervention efficacy.

Key Points

  • Assess the global patterns and shifting demographic distribution of cardiovascular disease burden among older populations using data from the Global Burden of Disease Study 2019.
  • Extracted and evaluated epidemiological metrics from the Global Burden of Disease Study 2019 focused on cardiovascular disease among elderly populations.
  • Stratified disease burden trends according to national Socio-demographic Index (SDI) levels.
  • Cardiovascular disease burden remains severe in the aging global population.
  • The geographic distribution of cardiovascular disease burden shows a notable shift toward countries with lower Socio-demographic Index levels.
