May inform global CVD prevention policies; leaves open real-world attainability and regional variations.
Does achieving United Nations risk factor targets reduce premature cardiovascular mortality globally by 2025 compared to current trends?
Effect estimate: 26% risk reduction (men), 23% risk reduction (women)
Achieving UN risk factor targets could significantly reduce global premature CVD mortality, though more aggressive targets may be needed for all regions to reach the 25% reduction goal.
Roth et al. (2015) studied Premature cardiovascular disease. Achieving United Nations risk factor targets vs. Current risk factor trends was evaluated on Premature CVD deaths in 2025 (26% risk reduction (men), 23% risk reduction (women)). Achieving United Nations risk factor targets would reduce projected global premature cardiovascular deaths in 2025 from 7.8 million to 5.7 million.
