The Epidemiology of Hypertension: The prevalence, Risk Factors, and Global Impact
Submission Abstract:
Hypertension is the primary cause of cardiovascular diseases and is responsible for nearly 9 million deaths worldwide annually. Increasing evidence indicates that in addition to pathophysiologic processes, the environmental factors, such as geographic location, lifestyle choices, socioeconomic status, and cultural practices, influence the risk, progression, and severity of hypertension. This issue aims to collect the latest research and multidisciplinary perspectives on the epidemiology of hypertension and these environmental determinants’ effects, in order to inform more effective public health strategies and personalized interventions.
