- Few people are more prone to cardiovascular diseases genetically and the problem aggravates further when combined with an erratic lifestyle along with environmental factors. However, there are also other cases, when without any hereditary signs there are patients suffering cardiovascular diseases too.
“Prevention is better than cure” – Research is done on its principle
Well in the future, factors to determine the cause of the disease are going to be clearer. It is well known that “Prevention is better than cure” and proper research is being done to combat two health-related threats, as the world has seen lots of deaths due to ‘Antimicrobial resistance’ and ‘Communicable disease outbreaks’
- Similarly, the invention of drugs and therapies for targeting the disease can be done right at its primary stage
- Invention of biomarkers will be a sure cut possibility to detect the early stage of diseases. The future is very bright as we will be able to take the assistance of images to check the underlying biological processes in our body.
