Published in Non-Communicable Diseases 1 min read

While determining the absolute "most" impactful non-communicable diseases (NCDs) is complex and depends on factors like mortality, morbidity, and economic burden, here are 8 prominent NCDs, based on the provided reference and common understanding of global health challenges:

  • Cancer
  • Diabetes
  • Heart Disease
  • Chronic Lung Disease
  • Alzheimer's Disease
  • Hypertension
  • Asthma
  • Mental Health Ailments

It is hard to definitively say the 10 "most" impactful NCDs, as impact is a subjective measure. The term "most" is a little bit vague.
