“…Balaji et al . (2018)[ 17 ] in their study observed similar trend with the maximum (26.0%) prevalence of hypertension being among the low-risk (<10%) group of study participants, while Ghorpade et al . (2015)[ 12 ] found that the prevalence of hypertension was maximum (86.2%) among the high-risk (≥20%) groups.…”

“…Balaji et al . (2018)[ 17 ] reported similar findings where 50.8% of the smokers had low risk of CVD while only 16.1% were in the high-risk category, while Ghorpade et al . (2015)[ 12 ] observed that 58.6% of the smokers had moderate risk of CVD and 34.6% had high risk of CVD.…”

“…In a previous study by Balaji et al . (2018),[ 17 ] it was seen that BMI had an increasing trend with increasing risk of CVD in the study participants with 22.4 (±3.1) kg/m 2 in the low-risk group and 23.1 (±2.6) kg/m 2 in the high-risk category, while Muthunarayanan et al . (2015)[ 20 ] in their study observed that majority (44.4%) of the participants had a BMI of >25 kg/m 2 .…”

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. Aims: The aim of this study was to estimate the 10-year risk of cardiovascular events among adults aged ≥40 years in a rural population of Lucknow district using the World Health Organization (WHO)/International Society of Hypertension (ISH) risk prediction charts for SEAR-D region. Settings and Design: This was a community based cross-sectional study, conducted from September 2017 to August 2018, in the rural areas of Lucknow district. Methods and Material: This study was conducted on 397 subjects aged ≥40 years. The two sets of the WHO/ISH risk prediction charts, with and without cholesterol, for WHO SEAR-D region were used in the study. Statistical analysis used: SPSS, version 23 was used for data analysis. Results: Using the risk assessment tools, with and without cholesterol, 78.5 and 76.8%, respectively, of the study population were in the 10-year cardiovascular risk category of <10% risk, while 11.2 and 10.4%, respectively, were in the category of ≥20% risk. Risk categories were found to be concordant in 86.3% of the population. Conclusions: The WHO/ISH risk prediction charts can be used at low-cost resource setting as a tool to predict CVD risk among asymptomatic individuals, thus, helping in early detection and prevention of CVDs in resource-scarce settings.

“…On estimating the Cardiovascular disease risk using risk prediction charts by WHO/ISH , with and without cholesterol, almost the similar trend was observed with the both charts with more than three-fourth of the study participants having low (<10%) risk of Cardiovascular disease. Previous studies done by Balaji et al (2018), [17] Patil et al (2017), [18] Ghorpade et al (2015), [12] and [19] has documented similar results with a majority of patients falling under low risk (<10%) category for Cardiovascular diseases.…”

Context: Cardiovascular diseases (CVDs) are the most common cause of death worldwide, although low- and middle-income countries are affected disproportionately. By 2020, it is estimated that there will be around 25 million deaths from Cardiovascular diseases globally,and out of that 19 million would be from middle- and low-income countries. Aims: The aim of this study was to estimate the 10-year risk of cardiovascular events among adults aged ≥40 years in a rural population of Meerut district using the World Health Organization (WHO)/International Society of Hypertension (ISH) risk prediction charts for SEAR-D region. Community based cross-sectional study, which was conducted from january 2021 to december 2021, in the rural areas of Meerut district. Methods and Material: Study was conducted on 397 subjects who were aged ≥40 years. Two sets of the WHO/ISH risk prediction charts, with and without cholesterol, for WHO SEAR-D region were used in this study. Statistical analysis used: SPSS, version 23 was used for data analysis. Results: By using the risk assessment tools, with and without cholesterol, 78.5 and 76.8%, of the population being studied were in the 10-year cardiovascular risk category with <10% risk, whereas 11.2 and 10.4%, were in the cardiovascular risk category of ≥20% risk.

“…One in Salem, among women aged 40–70 years which found 6.5% high CVD risk[ 15 ] and the other in a village near Chennai among both men and women, where 6.25% had high CVD risk. [ 16 ] These geographic and rural/urban contextual differences have also been exhibited in a systematic analysis of coronary heart disease (CHD) rates in India, where CHD rates were higher in rural North India and urban South India,[ 17 ] owing to commonality in patterns unhealthy diet and physical inactivity.…”
