Incidence and prevalence of CVD Sample Clauses

Incidence and prevalence of CVD. CVD is the leading-cause of death worldwide. However, there is great variation in the rate of death from the different forms of CVD between countries according to the WHO XXXXXX study (Xxxxxxxx-Xxxxx et al. 2000). Stroke rates tend to be more strongly associated with elevated blood pressure than atherosclerosis, whereas CHD is more strongly associated with atherosclerosis. Generally, rates of stroke are higher than that of CHD in the Far East. The lowest rates of CHD are in Japan and some of the Southern Mediterranean countries and the highest are now in Eastern European countries. Mortality from CVD has been falling steadily in Western Europe over the past 30 years. In the UK, CVD accounts for 36% of premature deaths (aged <75 years) in men and 27% in women according to the British Heart Foundation (xxx.xxx.xxx.xx). Recent data suggest that CVD death rates have fallen by over 50% in the last 10 years (Xxxxxxx et al. 2012). The reasons for the fall are uncertain but are thought to be due to better treatment, smoking cessation and a secular fall in blood pressure and serum cholesterol despite an increase in the prevalence of diabetes and obesity (Xxxxxxx et al.2012). Dietary fat has been linked to risk of CVD mainly, but not exclusively, through its effects on blood lipids.
