There has been considerable progress in the prevention and treatment of cardiovascular disease, reducing the population burden of cardiovascular morbidity and mortality. Here, we review these obstacles, motivated by SPRINT and the context of selecting an appropriate cognitive end point for future preventive randomized trials.

Cardiovascular disease is the leading cause of death worldwide. Over 80% of early heart disease is preventable. Because if we can understand that, we can attempt to emulate it and also considerably delay the onset of cardiovascular disease and our risk of an early death as a consequence of it.

Type 2 Diabetes When it comes to the increasing the risk of major chronic diseases such as cardiovascular disease, many cancers and dementia, type 2 diabetes plays a huge role. For example, people with type 2 diabetes are 10 times more likely to develop cardiovascular disease than those who do not have diabetes 10.
