Metric Options: Counts1 Year3 YearSelecting the 1-year or 3-year option will change the metrics count to percentiles, illustrating how an article or review compares to other articles or reviews within the selected time period in the same journal. Selecting the 1-year option compares the metrics against other articles/reviews that were also published in the same calendar year. Selecting the 3-year option compares the metrics against other articles/reviews that were also published in the same calendar year plus the two years prior.
Example: if you select the 1-year option for an article published in 2019 and a metric category shows 90%, that means that the article or review is performing better than 90% of the other articles/reviews published in that journal in 2019. If you select the 3-year option for the same article published in 2019 and the metric category shows 90%, that means that the article or review is performing better than 90% of the other articles/reviews published in that journal in 2019, 2018 and 2017.

Review Description
Cardiovascular disease (CVD) is the leading cause of mortality in the world. From 2005 to 2008, the World Health Organization (WHO) planned an initiative to reduce the mortality rate of CVD by 2030 by addressing health, finance, transport, education, and agriculture in these communities. Plans were underway by many countries to meet the goals of the WHO initiative. However, in 2020, the COVID-19 pandemic derailed these goals, and many health systems suffered as the world battled the viral pandemic. The pandemic made health inequities even more prominent and necessitated a different approach to understanding and improving the socioeconomic determinants of health (SDOH). WHO initiated a special initiative to improve SDOH globally. This paper is an update on what other regions across the globe are doing to decrease, more specifically, the impact of socioeconomic determinants of cardiovascular health. Our review highlights how countries and regions such as Canada, the United States, India, Southeast Asia, the Middle East, and Africa are uniquely affected by various socioeconomic factors and how these countries are attempting to counter these obstacles by creating policies and protocols to facilitate an infrastructure that promotes screening and treatment of CVD. Ultimately, interventions directed toward populations that have been economically and socially marginalized may aid in reducing the disease and financial burden associated with CVD. Les maladies cardiovasculaires (MCV) sont la première cause de mortalité à l’échelle mondiale. De 2005 à 2008, l’Organisation mondiale de la santé (OMS) a lancé une initiative visant à réduire le taux de mortalité d’origine cardiovasculaire d’ici 2030 en abordant différents déterminants comme la santé, les finances, le transport, l’éducation et l’agriculture. De nombreux pays avaient pris des mesures pour répondre aux objectifs fixés par l’OMS, jusqu’à ce qu’en 2020, la pandémie de COVID-19 vienne torpiller tous les projets et mette à mal les systèmes de santé à l’échelle mondiale. Les inégalités en santé se sont accentuées, d’où la nécessité d’adopter une approche différente pour comprendre et améliorer les déterminants socioéconomiques de la santé (DSS). L’OMS a lancé une initiative spéciale afin d’améliorer les DSS à l’échelle mondiale. Le présent article est une mise à jour sur les mesures prises par d’autres régions du monde pour diminuer, en particulier, l’incidence des DSS sur la santé cardiovasculaire. Nous mettons en lumière les effets de divers facteurs socioéconomiques dans des pays et des régions comme le Canada, les États-Unis, l’Inde, l’Asie du Sud-Est, le Moyen-Orient et l’Afrique et la façon dont ces régions tentent de surmonter ces difficultés en créant des politiques et des protocoles qui favorisent le dépistage et le traitement des MCV. Les interventions s’adressant aux populations qui ont été marginalisées sur le plan socioéconomique pourraient contribuer à réduire le fardeau sanitaire et financier associé aux MCV.
