These data offer an updated analysis of health estimates pertaining to the worldwide, regional, and national impact of cardiovascular diseases (CVD) and associated risk factors. High systolic blood pressure stands out as a major risk factor, directly contributing to leading cardiovascular causes of death in LMICs.

Salvatore Carbone, PhD: First, I’d like to point out that obesity is a major risk factor for cardiometabolic disease. There are significant data that show that if you have obesity, you have a high risk of developing coronary heart disease, heart failure, type 2 diabetes (T2D) or risk factors such as hypertension and dyslipidemia.

Yes, many external factors impact these factors, but ultimately, you have significant control over all of these. Let’s look at what happens to NCD risk when these risk factors are optimised. However, the way they classified this was unusual as they put both type 2 diabetes and thyroid disorders together.

The benefit of resistance training observed in observational studies is supported by controlled trials on resistance training, which demonstrate that this type of exercise reduces traditional and nontraditional CVD risk factors. Of course, these benefits can also extend to individuals with a BMI in the normal range.
