CVD already accounts for almost 10 percent of the developing world's burden of disease and is likely to become the developing world's leading cause of death. There is reason for hope, however, given that huge potential exists for applying R&D to control this emerging epidemic--both in creating powerful new interventions such as vaccines and dietary supplements and in guiding behavior. In addition, a considerable body of evidence suggests that current risk-factor prevention programs and low-cost case management of CVD offer feasible, cost-effective ways to reduce CVD mortality and disability in developing country populations. Large-scale CVD control efforts are lacking, however, and thus governments and individuals are left to make choices about health and health care services without the benefit of appropriate knowledge. This report was designed to promote a policy dialogue on CVD based on informed knowledge of R&D opportunities that offer effective, affordable, and widely applicable responses in developing countries. The report examines (a) the emerging burden of CVD in developing countries, (b) the future worldwide burden of CVD, (c) current prevention and treatment of CVD in developing countries, (d) R&D to support CVD control, (e) opportunities and priorities for R&D, and the need for institutional arrangements for collaboration in facing the epidemic. 517 3 $aCardiovascular diseases in developing countries 606 $aCardiovascular system$xDiseases$xEpidemiology 606 $aCardiovascular system$xDiseases$xPrevention 615 0$aCardiovascular system$xDiseases$xEpidemiology. 615 0$aCardiovascular system$xDiseases$xPrevention. 676 $a362.1/961/0091724 701 $aHowson$b Christopher Paul$01805478 712 02$aInstitute of Medicine (U.S.).$bCommittee on Research, Development, and Institutional Strengthening for Control of Cardiovascular Diseases in Developing Countries. 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910969774703321 996 $aControl of cardiovascular diseases in Developing countries$94355584 997 $aUNINA
