Disability from cardiovascular diseases at Osh city, Kyrgyz Republic.

ABSTRACT

Cardiovascular diseases (CVDs) are the leading global cause of death, contributing to health deterioration and increased healthcare expenses. Therefore, it is of interest to investigate the disability rates related to cardiovascular diseases at Osh city, Kyrgyz Republic. We report the prevalence of disability in both urban and rural areas, highlighting the impact of regional disparities in medical and social services. Data shows that adult cardiovascular disease impairment in Kyrgyzstan suggests challenges in accessing medical and social support, particularly in rural regions. Thus, the rural-urban divide in critical disability metrics impedes equitable research. Comprehensive assessments and interventions are imperative to mitigate cardiovascular diseases and associated disabilities in both rural and urban populations at Kyrgyz Republic.
