Transforming Cardiometabolic Health in Africa
Every discovery we make brings us one step closer to understanding and addressing the complex challenges of cardiometabolic diseases across Africa
Discover MoreCREATE (Cardiometabolic Disease Research in Africa parTnErship) is an ambitious and dedicated initiative focused on advancing research, understanding, and solutions for cardiometabolic diseases across the African continent. Cardiometabolic diseases, which include conditions such as heart disease, stroke, hypertension, and diabetes, have become a significant public health challenge in Africa, affecting millions of people each year. We believe that through focused research and collaboration, we can not only gain deeper insights into these diseases but also develop sustainable strategies that lead to improved health outcomes for individuals and communities.
Our area of expertise
Diabetes is a chronic condition where the body either doesn’t produce enough insulin or cannot effectively use the insulin it produces, leading to elevated blood sugar levels. If left unmanaged, diabetes can cause severe complications such as nerve damage, kidney failure, and cardiovascular diseases. Early diagnosis, healthy lifestyle choices, and proper medical care are essential for managing diabetes.

Hypertension, or high blood pressure, occurs when the force of blood against the walls of the arteries is consistently too high. Often referred to as the “silent killer” because it may have no obvious symptoms, hypertension significantly increases the risk of heart disease, stroke, and kidney failure. Regular monitoring and lifestyle changes, such as diet and exercise, are key to managing blood pressure.

Cardiovascular disease (CVD) encompasses a range of conditions that affect the heart and blood vessels, including coronary artery disease, heart attacks, and heart failure. CVD is a leading cause of death globally and is often linked to risk factors such as hypertension, smoking, diabetes, and high cholesterol. Prevention through lifestyle changes and early detection are critical to reducing the impact of cardiovascular diseases.
