Qatar Cardiometabolic Cohort

23 de junio de 2026 actualizado por: Weill Cornell Medical College in Qatar

Qatar Cardiometabolic Cohort (QCMC)

Our objective is to create a cardiometabolic cohort that could be representative of the local population, consisting of Qataris and long-term residents, in order to identify the prevalence, risk factors, and clinical characteristics of cardiometabolic disorders, as well as the incidence of atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease events.

Descripción detallada

Qatar, along with other Gulf Cooperation Council (GCC) countries, experiences one of the highest rates of diabetes, obesity, and cardiovascular risk factors. However, the impact of those risk factors on cardiac diseases, in particular atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease (ASCVD), is not well studied. Further, the incidence of mortality in participants with diabetes and high cardiovascular risk is not known.

We will conduct a prospective, longitudinal, observational cohort that investigates the natural history of cardiometabolic diseases in citizens and long-term residents in Qatar: the Qatar Cardiometabolic Cohort (QCMC). The cohort will examine the prevalence, risk factors, and characterization of cardiometabolic patients, as well as the incidence of mortality and ASCVD events.
