Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Atherosclerosis and atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease continue to be significant risk factors and the leading causes of death worldwide. Obesity, metabolic impairment, and their interaction within cardiometabolic disease pose substantial challenges to epidemiology and national health systems.
This Special Issue will provide a comprehensive overview of the intricate relationships between cardiometabolic disorders and atherosclerosis, shedding light on their prevalence, risk factors, and global impacts.
Key themes for this Special Issue include the following:
- Epidemiology: Detailed analyses of the patterns, causes, and effects of cardiometabolic diseases and atherosclerosis in populations worldwide;
- Prevention: Innovative strategies and interventions aimed at reducing the incidence and burden of these conditions, emphasizing lifestyle modifications and public health initiatives;
- Diagnosis: Advances in diagnostic techniques, biomarkers, and screening methods that facilitate early detection and improve patient outcomes;
- Clinical Treatment: Cutting-edge therapeutic approaches, clinical management guidelines.
We hope that this Special Issue will attract scientists and healthcare professionals from around the world who are involved in the treatment and prevention of cardiometabolic disease and atherosclerosis. Your contributions and insights are invaluable in advancing our understanding and management of these ongoing health challenges.
