Cardiovascular health (CVH) is a critical issue for global health. However, no previous study has determined the prevalence of cardiovascular risk factors based on the American Heart Association’s (AHA) Life’s Essential 8 (LE8). Therefore, we aimed to estimate the global prevalence of the eight cardiovascular risk factors identified in the LE8. A systematic search of systematic reviews with meta-analysis on cardiovascular risk factors covering data reported between 2000 and 2019 was conducted on PubMed, Epistemonikos, and the Cochrane Library until 1 May 2023. After applying exclusion criteria, 79 studies remained in the final selection for the narrative synthesis in the systematic review, of which 33 of them were used in the meta-analysis which included 2 555 639 participants from 104 countries. The overall pooled prevalence of cardiovascular risk factors was as follows: insufficient physical activity, 26.3% (95% CI 2.3%–63.4%), no adherence to a healthy diet, 34.1% (95% CI 5.8%–71.2%), nicotine exposure, 15.4% (95% CI 10.4%–21.2%), insufficient sleep quality, 38.5% (95% CI 14.0%–66.7%), obesity, 17.3% (95% CI 6.1%–32.6%), dyslipidemia, 34.1% (95% CI 33.8%–34.4%), diabetes, 12.0% (95% CI 7.0%–18.2%), and hypertension, 29.4% (95% CI 23.3%–35.8%). These results warrant prevention strategies aimed at reducing insufficient sleep quality, and no adherence to a healthy diet as leading cardiovascular risk factors worldwide. The high prevalence of hypertension among children and adults is concerning and should also be adequately addressed through global policies.

“…1 In the Indian context, the prevalence of diabetes among the tribal population is also increasing. [12][13][14] There are hardly any qualitative studies documenting the beliefs and misconceptions about diabetes from the state of Meghalaya, one with a high percentage of the tribal population and where matriliny is practiced.…”

Purpose: The purpose of the study was to explore the cultural beliefs and practices of the Pnar tribe in terms of their self-management of diabetes. Methods: A qualitative study design using an ethnographic approach was adopted to understand the experiences of the Pnar women with type 2 diabetes. Around 60 women living with diabetes across 20 villages in the Thadlaskein rural block were interviewed in the Pnar language. Thematic analysis was employed to identify the pattern related to beliefs and cultural practices in the self-management of diabetes across the data set. Results: Misconceptions related to diet, such as all vegetables grown underground need to be avoided and bitter herbs and vegetables are good for blood glucose control, were reported. Participants used home remedies and complementary and alternative medicine to bring down their blood glucose levels. Participants believe that diabetes is an episodic or short-term illness and can be cured through herbal medicine. Participants reported that consuming atta or round flat bread made of wheat flour instead of rice caused “acidity.” Conclusions: Misconceptions are barriers to disease management, which are often shaped in people’s minds by culture. Therefore, health care service providers must know what people think about diabetes and its management. Accordingly, information related to diabetes should be disseminated to the masses for effective management of diabetes.
