Epidemiology, Lifestyle, and Cardiovascular Health
A section of Journal of Cardiovascular Development and Disease (ISSN 2308-3425).
Section Information
This section of JCDD on “Epidemiology, Lifestyle, and Cardiovascular Health Section” focuses on all areas of cardiovascular epidemiology, from the population level to clinical epidemiology. It also concentrates on how lifestyle exerts an impact on cardiovascular health. Therefore, the scope of this section spans dietary habits to tobacco and alcohol use and abuse; risk factors, including ambient and social ones; and all methods related to the evaluation and account of these factors. The technical scope of this section includes studies of biochemistry, pharmacology, biometrics, statistics and mathematics, since these sciences profoundly cooperate with methodological issues related to epidemiology.
This section welcomes manuscripts that address topics including, but not limited to, the following:
Cardiovascular physiology and exercise, cardiovascular pathology, cardiovascular pharmacology, sport cardiology, ischemic heart disease, congestive heart failure, arrhythmias, biomarkers, risk factors, cardiac fibrosis, hypertension, cardiomyopathy, epigenetics, cardiac biology, stem cells, conduction systems, bioprostheses, cardiac regeneration, tissue engineering and disease modeling, aging, survival, lifespan, statistical models and applied statistics.
