Projected Effect of Dietary Salt Reductions on Future Cardiovascular Disease

TL;DR: In this article, the authors used the Coronary Heart Disease (CHD) Policy Model to quantify the benefits of potentially achievable, population-wide reductions in dietary salt of up to 3 g per day (1200 mg of sodium per day).
Journal ArticleDOI

Adolescent overweight and future adult coronary heart disease.

TL;DR: Ex extrapolation from current data suggests that adolescent overweight will increase rates of CHD among future young and middle-aged adults, resulting in substantial morbidity and mortality.
Journal ArticleDOI

Forecasting coronary heart disease incidence, mortality, and cost: the Coronary Heart Disease Policy Model.

TL;DR: B baseline projections indicate that the aging of the population, and especially the maturation of the post-World War II baby-boom generation, would increase CHD prevalence and annual incidence, mortality, and costs by about 40-50 per cent by the year 2010.
Journal ArticleDOI

Future Cardiovascular Disease in China Markov Model and Risk Factor Scenario Projections From the Coronary Heart Disease Policy Model–China

TL;DR: Aging and population growth will increase cardiovascular disease by more than a half over the coming 20 years, and projected unfavorable trends in blood pressure, total cholesterol, diabetes, and body mass index may accelerate the epidemic.
Journal ArticleDOI

Cost effectiveness of aspirin, clopidogrel, or both for secondary prevention of coronary heart disease.

TL;DR: Increased prescription of aspirin for secondary prevention of coronary heart disease is attractive from a cost-effectiveness perspective, unless its use is restricted to patients who are ineligible for aspirin.
