ABSTRACT
Introduction:
Metabolic risk factors significantly elevate the risk of cardiovascular diseases (CVDs) and are recognized as one of the primary contributors to these conditions. This study explored the trends and percentage changes in disability-adjusted life years (DALYs) attributable to metabolic risk factors for CVD from 1990 to 2019.Methods:
Data from the Global Burden of Disease study was utilized to depict changes across metabolic risk factors by sociodemographic indices and sex groups. The Mann-Kendall test was employed to ascertain the significance of these trends.Results:
The findings indicate that the DALY percentage change over these years was more pronounced in low-middle and middle Socio-demographic Index (SDI) countries than in others. The most substantial percentage increase, approximately 60%, was observed in regions with low SDI, attributed to high body mass index (BMI). On average, the greatest DALYs were associated with high systolic blood pressure (SBP). Moreover, the trend for high low-density lipoprotein cholesterol and high SBP declined in countries with high SDI.Conclusions:
It can be concluded that to mitigate the global mortality and morbidity from heart diseases, there needs to be a focused emphasis on managing metabolic risk factors, particularly in low-Middle and middle SDI countries.
