Summary

This study brings together health data from about 3 million people across 40 countries to see how common risk factors like high blood pressure, smoking, and diabetes affect heart disease and death rates. Researchers want to understand how these risks differ by region and sex. No new treatments are tested; instead, the goal is to improve prediction of heart problems worldwide.

Ages

18 years and older

Sex

Anyone

Healthy volunteers
