摘要: The aims of this study were to obtain the most recent representative data for prevalence diabetes in adult populations World Health Organisation's South-East Asia and Western Pacific regions quantify contribution burden mortality from cardiovascular diseases these regions.

Information on was obtained by searching Medline government health websites. Data available 12 countries representing 78% total population region. Six 10 complete reported a exceeding those currently cited Organization; three which have also already exceeded Organization projections 2030. In region data, ranged 2.6% 15.1%. Hazard ratios Cohort Studies Collaboration used calculate attributable fractions fatal Population 2% 12% coronary heart disease, 1% 6% haemorrhagic stroke, 11% ischaemic stroke. Accurate great importance standard methods needed periodic surveillance across elsewhere.
