Cardiovascular diseases (CVD) are one of the primary reasons of death in the world today, and they associate with multiple risk factors. CVDs are the consequence of multiple pathogenic factors, reflecting the changed interaction between interconnected genes and their products. A number of chemicals, synthetic drugs, NSAIDs have been used to cure CVDs but demand for compounds with lesser side effects is increasing. Most drugs for CVDs, in the past, targeted a target with high specificity and thus were not very effective. However, drugs that target multiple targets, would have maximal efficacy and low adverse effects. Today, such drugs are in demand and are being developed by pharmaceutical companies worldwide.

Common CVDs include: ischemic heart disease (IHD), stroke, hypertensive heart disease, rheumatic heart disease (RHD), aortic aneurysms, cardiomyopathy, atrial fibrillation, congenital heart disease, endocarditis, and peripheral artery disease (PAD). This category of disease is the leading cause of death globally except Africa. Together they have caused upto 17.3 million deaths in 2013 itself, up from 12.3 million (25.8%) in 1990. Deaths at a given age by them are more common and continue to increase annually, in developing countries. On the other hand, deaths by cardiovascular diseases have declined in most of the developed world since 1970. IHD and stroke make up for 80% of CVD deaths in male and upto 75% in females. Most of the cardiovascular disease affects older adults [2]. Onset of IHD is typically ten to seven years earlier in men as compared to women. Study says that 90% cases of CVD are preventable. Prevention of atherosclerosis is possible by risk factors through: regular exercise, healthy eating habits, avoiding smoking of tobacco and limiting the alcohol intake. In this paper, we have considered five important cardiovascular diseases, which are important and seek global attention. These are mentioined …show more content…
This deterioration can be measured. Cardiomyopathy patients are at increased risk of heart problems like sudden cardiac arrest and irregular heart rate. Dilate cartdiomyopathy is the frequently detected type of cardiomyopathy. It is related to ventricular dilation, depressed cardiac function, and hypertrophy, impaired adrenergic signaling. People suffering from this disorder show signs of heart failure, that include prural effusions, cardiac enlargement and difficulty in breathing [3].
Myocardial infarction (Pain), commonly known as a heart attack, is the damage of heart muscle, occurring when blood doesn’t flow to the heart on any part of it. The most common symptom is chest pain or discomfort, which travels to the shoulder, arm, back, neck, or jaw. Other symptoms may include breathlessness, nausea, faint feeling or exhaustion. Risk factors of Myocardial infarction include high blood pressure, smoking, diabetes, lack of exercise, obesity, high blood cholesterol, poor diet, and excessive alcohol, among
