Summary
The authors critically reviewed the current state of research on cardiovascular health with the lens of the envirome. The authors explained the current knowledge of cadiovascular health as a baseline, then explored multiple avenues for cross disiplenary research optortunities. The authors discussed the built environment, the social environment, the personal environmental, and then the envirome as a whole in relation technilogical advances and omics analyses. This review provides a starting point for addressing these complex multidisiplenary cardiovasular avenues in future research.

Models Used:

  • Envirome Model (article presents a hierarchical model of the envirome, defined by 3 consecutively nested domains, consisting of natural, social, and personal environments)

Models References:

Methods Used:

  • The authors performed a review of existing literature to examine the current state of research on cardiovascular health with the lens of the envirome. The authors — 1) explained the current knowledge of cadiovascular health as a baseline; 2) explored the built environment, the social environment, the personal environmental, and 3) the envirome as a whole in relation technilogical advances and omics analyses.
