Promoting Cardiovascular Health in the Developing World
A Critical Challenge to Achieve Global Health

Cardiovascular disease (CVD), once thought to be confined primarily to industrialized nations, has emerged as a major health threat in developing countries. Cardiovascular disease now accounts for nearly 30 percent of deaths in low and middle income countries each year, and is accompanied by significant economic repercussions. Yet most governments, global health institutions, and development agencies have largely overlooked CVD as they have invested in health in developing countries. Recognizing the gap between the compelling evidence of the global CVD burden and the investment needed to prevent and control CVD, the National Heart, Lung, and Blood Institute (NHLBI) turned to the IOM for advice on how to catalyze change.
In this report, the IOM recommends that the NHLBI, development agencies, nongovernmental organizations, and governments work toward two essential goals:
creating environments that promote heart healthy lifestyle choices and help reduce the risk of chronic diseases, and building public health infrastructure and health systems with the capacity to implement programs that will effectively detect and reduce risk and manage CVD.To meet these goals, the IOM recommends several steps, including improving cooperation and collaboration; implementing effective and feasible strategies; and informing efforts through research and health surveillance. Without better efforts to promote cardiovascular health, global health as a whole will be undermined.

Far from being a direct complication of primary damage to heart muscle, it is now recognised that the pathogenesis of heart failure may rely on a combination of neurohormonal, cellular and molecular factors. An overwhelming number of systems appear to be activated in heart failure and contribute in some way towards structural remodelling. Comprising a comprehensive evaluation of the experimental and clinical data relating oxidative stress and heart failure, this text proposes that oxidative stress may be the common pathway for muscle dysfunction, cellular growth and remodelling, and mytocyte death. Acknowledged experts in the field here present a persuasive argument for raising the profile of oxidative stress as an important, perhaps critical contributor to the adverse consequences of heart failure. This volume should serve as a rich source of supportive data for clinicians and investigators interested in the pathophysiology and treatment of heart failure, and as a platform on which to base further research.
