A STUDY ON BELARUS COUNTRY'S CORONARY HEART DISEASES CASES

​

Merik Patel

 

ABSTRACT: Coronary heart disease (CHD) was a major problem in many developing countries during the twentieth century. Belarus is dealing with an increasing burden of noncommunicable diseases (NCDs), with coronary heart disease (CHD) now being the leading cause of death.  Despite a downward trend in Belarus' (CHD) mortality rates over the last decade, the country's all-cause mortality rate remains significantly higher than the European average. Scaling up population-based interventions is one of the main prospects for better prevention and regulation of (CHD) in Belarus. To address these issues, both at the population level and the level of individual programmes, action is required. Saturated fat (SFA), polyunsaturated fat (PUFA) al-6 (n-6) and trans-fat (TFA) all influence the risk of coronary heart disease (CHD), but there is no clear attributable mortality of coronary heart disease (CHD) by country, age, gender, or time period. Assume that the heart's beating capacity has been reduced to the point where the circulatory system is unable to adequately circulate blood. In that case, the lungs are more likely to swell with air, causing breathing difficulties. There may be a rapid increase in heart disease (acute heart failure) or a slow and steady increase (chronic heart failure). The goal of this study is to profile coronary heart disease in Belarus, as well as mortality rates and risk factors, to determine future directions for lowering death rates.

KEY WORDS: Coronary Heart Disease, Belarus, Cardiovascular Diseases, Noncommunicable Diseases.
