Unveiling the global impact of hypertensive heart disease among individuals aged ≥ 65 years: metabolic risk factors and future projections for 2050
Despite declining mortality/DALYs, HHD burden grows in older adults globally. Rising prevalence and projected incidence/deaths demand enhanced prevention. Metabolic risk dominance (high-SDI regions) prioritizes blood pressure control. Marked inequalities [US, Taiwan (China)] reveal opportunities for optimized resource allocation. Findings support tailored strategies to mitigate HHD impact.
