Global population across all regions of the world
Burden of cardiovascular diseases (health loss)
While cardiovascular disease burden has declined in high sociodemographic index regions over the past 25 years, it remains a major cause of health loss globally with little to no change in most regions.
CVDs remain a major cause of health loss for all regions of the world. Sociodemographic change over the past 25 years has been associated with dramatic declines in CVD in regions with very high SDI, but only a gradual decrease or no change in most regions. Future updates of the GBD study can be used to guide policymakers who are focused on reducing the overall burden of noncommunicable disease and achieving specific global health targets for CVD.
