Abstract

Ecological Concepts and Issues in the Association between Mortality and Risk Factors of Cardiovascular Disease

Chrysanthus Chukwuma*

Cardiovascular disease is a leading etiology of mortality globally: The multifactorial emergence of the association between mortality and salient risk factors of cardiovascular disease is not clearly elucidated. Diverse countries and geographical regions have been monitoring and evaluating mortality and risk factors associated with cardiovascular disease as the levels and trajectories undergo continuous changes with environmental and public health concerns. Understanding the aggregated impacts of these alterations is crucial in taking precautionary measures in counteracting and managing cardiovascular disease. Empirical findings strongly indicate that the association between mortality and major evolving risk factors or determinants of cardiovascular disease is accelerating as both environmental and public health challenges. The author presents a dynamic overview of the extant features of the ecological analysis of cardiovascular disease.
