Estimation of cardiovascular risk in a rural population of Lucknow district using WHO/ISH risk prediction charts

Abstract: Context: Cardiovascular diseases (CVDs) are the number one cause of death globally, with low- and middle-income countries being affected disproportionately. By 2020, it is projected that there will be 25 million deaths from CVD worldwide, 19 million of which would be from middle- and low-income countries.
