Assessment of Cardiovascular Risk Factors in Young Adults through the Nursing Diagnosis: A Cross-Sectional Study among International University Students

Abstract: Four out of five deaths from cardiovascular disease are due to heart attacks and strokes in low- and middle-income countries. Early identification of risk factors in exposed individuals will help to develop interventions that may eliminate and/or reduce these risks and prevent the development of cardiovascular diseases. So, it is necessary to investigate the risk of impaired cardiovascular function in university students due to the increase in some risk factors and cardiovascular events in young adults, and to… Show more

“…This study presents valuable foundational data for exploring fundamental strategies to lower the incidence of cardiovascular and cerebrovascular disease and develop intervention programs that improve compliance by identifying people’s willingness to modify their lifestyle according to their risk of cardiovascular and cerebrovascular disease. This study may provide the basis for planning and implementing health measures aimed at reducing modifiable risk factors for cardiovascular diseases [ 20 ].…”

“…With more than 7.5 million deaths per year, which amounts to 31% of all global deaths, cardiovascular diseases are the leading cause of death in developed countries [36,37]. Among others, high cholesterol concentrations and physical inactivity stand out as the most important factors contributing to the risk of cardiovascular death [38].…”
