Changes in cardiovascular deaths and hospitalization in Canada [PDF]

open access: yesCanadian Journal of Cardiology, 2006
Cardiovascular disease is the leading cause of death and disability in Canada (1,2). The increasing age of our population and unhealthy eating habits are associated with increases in obesity, diabetes and hypertension. This has led to dire predictions of increases in deaths and hospitalizations from cardiovascular disease, and has enormous implications
