The authors are on the cusp of a new era in global health policy that could transform the lives of millions worldwide, and whether cardiovascular health is part of this transformation will be largely determined within the next few months.Abstract:
We are on the cusp of a new era in global health policy that could transform the lives of millions worldwide. Whether cardiovascular health is part of this transformation will be largely determined within the next few months, when the United Nations will debate and decide upon Sustainableread more

TL;DR: The Global Cardiovascular Disease Taskforce, comprising the World Heart Federation, American Heart Association, American College of Cardiology Foundation, European Heart Network, and European Society of cardiology, with expanded representation from Asia, Africa, and Latin America, along with global cardiovascular disease experts, disseminates information and approaches to reach the United Nations 2025 targets as discussed by the authors.
Journal ArticleDOI
Brain health and shared risk factors for dementia and stroke
TL;DR: Research is needed on the distinct and overlapping aetiologies of brain health conditions, and to define MRI markers to help clinicians identify patients who will benefit from aggressive prevention measures.
Journal ArticleDOI
Fabrication and preliminary study of a biomimetic tri-layer tubular graft based on fibers and fiber yarns for vascular tissue engineering
TL;DR: The in vivo results showed that the tri-layer vascular graft supported cell infiltration, scaffold biodegradation and abundant collagen production after subcutaneous implantation for 10weeks, revealing the optimal biocompatibility and tissue regenerative capability of the Tri-layer graft.
Journal ArticleDOI
Rapid emergence of atherosclerosis in Asia: a systematic review of coronary atherosclerotic heart disease epidemiology and implications for prevention and control strategies
TL;DR: The burden of CHD is substantial, whereas contributors are multifactorial, and the formulation of public health measures will need to adopt an integrated and life-course approach, based on the need and risks of different population subgroups in Asia.
Journal ArticleDOI
Aging and endothelin: determinants of disease.
TL;DR: The clinical implications of activators of ET-1 overproduction, modalities for delaying or reversing aging-related cellular changes, as well as interventions to promote healthy aging and early disease prevention - particularly physical activity - are discussed.
