https://padlet.com/rgvaldiv/gfa4d5zd5ljcw1x8 This concept map focuses on the leading cause of death in the world, cardiovascular diseases (CVD). Although CVDs is a global burden because it affects millions of people worldwide, many people don't understand it's severity and how it's a more dangerous and deathly disease than cancer. My concept map will show the severity of CVDs while emphasizing the importance of continuous research so that new and improved prevention strategies can be established and ultimately help improve this burden.#gbh_conceptmap2 en-us 2021-10-08 01:49:20 UTC 2024-07-30 18:31:26 UTC hello@padlet.com rgvaldiv https://padlet.com/rgvaldiv/gfa4d5zd5ljcw1x8/wish/1801459796 Global burden of diseases is a field of study and research that identifies and investigates major diseases, such as cardiovascular diseases (CVD), that affect the global population and have no exact cure. By identifying and investigating major diseases, the global public can be informed of the disease risk factors and ways to prevent developing the disease.]]> 2021-10-08 02:28:34 UTC https://padlet.com/rgvaldiv/gfa4d5zd5ljcw1x8/wish/1801459796 rgvaldiv https://padlet.com/rgvaldiv/gfa4d5zd5ljcw1x8/wish/1801460304 2021-10-08 02:28:49 UTC https://padlet.com/rgvaldiv/gfa4d5zd5ljcw1x8/wish/1801460304 rgvaldiv https://padlet.com/rgvaldiv/gfa4d5zd5ljcw1x8/wish/1801486452 This infographic highlights the severity of CVDs and how it's a more deadly disease than other diseases, like cancer, that are seen more frightening and receive more attention. By listing the risk factors, people can be informed of the lifestyle choices that are harmful and see if they should change their lifestyle so that their chances of developing CVDs decreases. ]]> 2021-10-08 02:40:34 UTC https://padlet.com/rgvaldiv/gfa4d5zd5ljcw1x8/wish/1801486452 rgvaldiv https://padlet.com/rgvaldiv/gfa4d5zd5ljcw1x8/wish/1801631214 CVD is a global burden but different regions are impacted differently. It's important to understand the risk factors and societal level health determinants of each region so that the prevention/management strategies can be targeted to each region and be effective. For example, low-income countries should focus on expanding their healthcare access. It'll be easier to reduce this global burden by promoting preventive strategies at a local level and then expanding globally.]]> 2021-10-08 03:50:46 UTC https://padlet.com/rgvaldiv/gfa4d5zd5ljcw1x8/wish/1801631214 rgvaldiv https://padlet.com/rgvaldiv/gfa4d5zd5ljcw1x8/wish/1801635820 Cardiovascular diseases (CVDs) are the leading cause of deaths globally. Although all countries are affected, we can see that some are impacted more than others, in specific those in the East who have low-economic sources. The image also shows data from 2015 and although there are a lot of CVD deaths, recent data has showed an increase of CVD deaths. It's important to continue researching ways to prevent and reduce CVD so everyone has an opportunity to live a long and healthy life.]]> 2021-10-08 03:53:25 UTC https://padlet.com/rgvaldiv/gfa4d5zd5ljcw1x8/wish/1801635820 rgvaldiv https://padlet.com/rgvaldiv/gfa4d5zd5ljcw1x8/wish/1801702791 CVDs affect millions of people yearly. Many of the people who develop CVDs have a chance of improving their health but the lack of access to treatment facilities or high care costs prevent many of them from getting treatment. So the American Heart Association have advice to reduce CVDs. These advices include lowering intake of saturated fat and replacing it with unsaturated fats, especially polyunsaturated fats, will lower the incidence of CVD. Following these recommendations could reduce the CVD rates globally and promote a healthier lifestyle for the public. ]]> 2021-10-08 04:37:59 UTC https://padlet.com/rgvaldiv/gfa4d5zd5ljcw1x8/wish/1801702791
