Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Metabolic and Chronic diseases are a major public health problem globally, affecting millions of people and causing significant morbidity, mortality, and financial burden around the world. These diseases, such as cardiovascular disease, diabetes, cancer, respiratory diseases, and mental health disorders, are characterized by their long duration and persistence, often requiring ongoing medical attention and management.
The causes of chronic diseases are complex and multifactorial, including genetic, environmental, and lifestyle factors. Lifestyle changes such as physical activity, healthy feeding, and avoiding tobacco and excessive alcohol consumption, could significantly reduce the risk of development of these diseases.
In this sense, elucidating the pathological pathways, diagnosis, new treatments, or prevention programs can contribute to the reduction of these alarming data. Papers addressing relevant issues, with original results, clinical trials, or systematic reviews will be invited to publish in the Special Issue about The Healthcare of Metabolic Diseases and Chronic Diseases.
