CINDI is an European intervention programme against major
noncommunicable diseases (NCD). 12 European countries, Canada, and
Israel are participating in the programme which is coordinated by
the World Health Organization. The book discribes the baseline
situation in the countries prior to the start of the programme.
Trends in the premature mortality of some major NCDsare given as
well as the prevalence of risk factors for NCDs in the population
(high blood cholesterol, high blood pressure, overweight, smoking).
The results presented stress the necessity of a country- wide
integrated approach: NCDs account for two third of premature deaths
in the CINDI countries and around 70% of the adult population are
at risk for NCDs.
