Quantifying Socioeconomic and Lifestyle Related Health Risks: Burden of Cardiovascular Disease Among Indian Males	2015	16	.pdf	application/pdf	6107	332	45	Major causes of morbidity and mortality have undergone an epidemiologic transition from predominantly nutritional deficiencies and infectious diseases in developing nations to chronic diseases such as cardiovascular disease.23 With the epidemiological transition and increased urbanization associated with the increase in CVD risk factors (behavioral, social, and lifestyle patterns), the CVD burden is increasing in developing countries including India.24 Previous literature provides evidence that while the prevalence and mortality rate of CVD has decreased in developed nations, it has substantially increased in India, which has been undergoing rapid demographic, social, and economic change.25 Studies have shown a major income decline due to CVD-related losses in productive labor.3 Understanding the health characteristics of young and middle aged males (18–60 years) will allow public health experts and policy makers to adopt focused interventions for prevention of disease and promoting lifestyle modifications.
