Cardiovascular mortality decreased due to improved food habits in the 1990s. However, this positive trend has halted due to less healthy nutrition and persistent smoking habits, impacting atherosclerosis risk factors.

Area of Science:

  • Public Health
  • Epidemiology
  • Cardiovascular Disease Research

Context:

  • Significant decrease in overall and cardiovascular mortality observed in the 1990s, likely linked to dietary changes.
  • Stagnation of mortality reduction in the last five years despite advancements in medical care.
  • Worsening trends in major atherosclerosis risk factors compared to the early 1990s.

Purpose:

  • To analyze the factors contributing to the recent halt in cardiovascular mortality decline.
  • To investigate the role of nutrition and smoking habits in atherosclerosis risk.
  • To compare current nutritional and smoking patterns with European Union primary countries.

Summary:

  • Positive shifts in food habits correlated with a significant drop in mortality during the 1990s.

  • The recent cessation of mortality decrease is associated with less favorable nutrition and continued smoking.
  • Atherosclerosis risk factors are not improving as favorably as in the past.

    • Impact:

    • Highlights the critical impact of lifestyle factors, particularly nutrition and smoking, on public health outcomes.
    • Underscores the need for targeted interventions to address suboptimal dietary patterns and smoking prevalence.
    • Provides insights for public health policy aimed at reversing negative trends in cardiovascular health.
