Non-communicable diseases like cardiovascular disease and diabetes place a large burden on Bangladesh's health system. Over 50% of deaths in Bangladesh are due to non-communicable diseases. Bangladesh faces a dual burden of infectious diseases as well as a growing burden from non-communicable diseases. Unhealthy lifestyles and environmental changes promoted by globalization and urbanization contribute to common risk factors such as high blood pressure, blood glucose, and obesity, which increase the risk of fatal conditions. The Bangladeshi government has established community clinics throughout the country to improve access to healthcare and reduce the burden of non-communicable diseases, especially in rural areas.

3. Background
Bangladesh, like many transitional nations, is straddling the demographic
and epidemiological transition.
In a review of twenty-three developing countries, Bangladesh was found
to have the ninth highest rate of age-standardized mortality among the
included countries due to chronic diseases, primarily cardiovascular
diseases and diabetes.
Some 51% of deaths in Bangladesh are due to non-communicable diseases
and other chronic health conditions .
4. Bangladesh is facing a dual burden, with a huge load of infectious
diseases and an increasing burden due to NCDs, which lead the
Government to update the strategic plan to combat NCDs in the
country.
Unidirectional globalization and rapid unplanned urbanization serve as
conduits for the promotion of unhealthy lifestyles and environmental
changes.
5. These common risk factors give rise to intermediate risk factors such as raised
blood pressure, raised blood glucose, unfavourable lipid profiles, obesity and
impaired lung function.
In turn, the intermediate risk factors predispose individuals to the "fatal four" -
cardiovascular disease (heart disease and stroke), cancer, chronic respiratory
disease and diabetes.
6. NCDs have further burdened the already strained health system and
inflict great cost on the society.
Economic growth has a number of key determinants and precursors, of
which health is a significant field.
In developing countries like Bangladesh, NCDs have historically not
received adequate attention from policy makers, development
partners, researchers and academicians
