Cardio metabolic diseases in Indians- burgeoning epidemic: Dr Sushil
8/11/2024 8:59:38 PM
Early Times Report

Jammu, Aug 11: While spearheading the campaign to educate and aware masses about the importance of primary prevention of cardiac ailments by adopting heart compatible lifestyle Head Department of Cardiology GMCH Jammu Dr Sushil Sharma held a day long cardiac awareness cum health check up camp at Kgee Playway School Muthi ,Jammu in order to make people realize the increasing incidence of cardiac diseases and various primordial modalities to prevent them.
While interacting with the people Dr Sushil stated that Cardio metabolic diseases are a group of common but often preventable conditions including heart attack, stroke, diabetes, insulin resistance and non-alcoholic fatty liver disease. There is a global increase in the number of people who experience one or more of these conditions during their lifetime. Smoking, lack of exercise, drinking a lot of alcohol and eating an unhealthy diet are recognized as the four main drivers of this rise. The high socioeconomic cost of cardio metabolic conditions to low, middle-income and wealthy countries make tackling these conditions critical to the health of our whole communities in the future.
He elaborated that Cardiovascular diseases (CVD) are the leading cause of death and disability in India.
The CVD epidemic in Indians is characterized by a higher relative risk burden, an earlier age of onset, higher case fatality and higher premature deaths. For decades, researchers have been trying to understand the reason for this increased burden and propensity of CVD among Indians. It can partly be explained by population-level changes and the remaining by increased inherent biological risk. While increased biological risk can be attributed to phenotypic changes caused by early life influences, six major transitions can be considered largely responsible for the population-level changes in India-epidemiological, demographic, nutritional, environmental, social-cultural and economic.
He added that a multifaceted and holistic approach to CVD prevention that takes into consideration population-level as well as biological risk factors would be needed to control the burgeoning CVD epidemic among Indians.
Prenatal factors that include maternal and paternal influences on the offspring, and postnatal factors, ranging from birth through childhood, adolescence and young adulthood, as well as inter-generational influences have been explored using the life course approach to chronic disease. In addition to this, recent research has illustrated the importance of the role of inherent biological differences in lipid metabolism, glucose metabolism, inflammatory states, genetic predispositions and epigenetic influences for the increased risk, He Said
Prominent members of the area Raman Chalotra , Vir Vikram , Kavi Raj Sharma , Kuldeep Raj Sharma, Kadar Sharma and Ajay Sharma appreciated the efforts of Dr Sushil and his team for conducting cardiac awareness camp cum health check up camp in their area and expressed their heartfelt gratitude.
Others who were part of this camp includes Dr Yashwant Sharma. Paramedics and volunteers include Kamal Sharma, Ranjeet Singh , Amnish Dutta , Amish Jamwal , Makhan Sharma, Mukesh Kumar , Rahul Vaid , Rahul Sharma , Gourav Sharma , Jatin Bhasin, Paramveer Singh, Vikas Kumar and Nirvair Singh Bali .
