Cardiovascular diseases are the leading explanation for death altogether areas of the planet except Africa. CVD are more common and have been increasing in much of the developing countries, while rates have declined in most of the developed world since the 1970s. Coronary artery disease and

In the us 11% of individuals between 20 and 40 have CVD, while 37% between 40 and 60, 71% of individuals between 60 and 80, and 85% of people over 80 have CVD. The average age of death from arteria coronaria disease within the developed world is around 80 while it's around 68 within the developing world. Diagnosis of disease typically occurs seven to 10 years earlier in men as compared to women.
