This Disease Is No.1 Death-Rate In The World?

Heart disease is the main cause of death, accounting for one-third of the world's deaths in 2019. China had the largest number of heart disease deaths last year, followed by India, Russia, the United States, and Indonesia. France, Peru, and Japan had six times lower mortality rates than in 1990, and the lowest in the world. The U.S. health information website WebMD explained the world's No.1 death rate for heart disease.

The number of heart disease patients nearly doubled from 270 million in 1990 to 520 million in 2019, and the number of deaths increased from 12.1 million to 18.6 million. Most deaths from heart disease in 2019 were ischemic heart disease and stroke, which increased steadily from 1990.

Last year, 9.6 million men and 8.9 million women died of heart disease, and more than 6 million of them were aged 30 to 70. The study was published in the U.S. Journal of Cardiology.

Cardiovascular disease, especially ischemic heart disease and stroke, is a major cause of death as well as disability and rising medical costs.

"The global pattern of overall cardiovascular disease has an important impact on clinical practice and public health policy development," said Dr. Ross, an associate professor of cardiology at the University of Washington.

"There is a possibility that the number of cases of cardiovascular disease will increase significantly in North Africa, West Asia, Latin America, and East and West Asia, where the proportion of senior citizens is expected to double between 2019 and 1950, he explained." He added that "more attention should be paid to improve heart health and promote healthy aging."
