Introduction: The effects of COVID-19 infection persist beyond the active phase. Comprehensive description and analysis of the post COVID sequelae in various population groups are critical to minimise the long-term morbidity and mortality associated with COVID-19. This analysis was conducted with an objective to estimate the frequency of post COVID sequelae and subsequently, design a framework for holistic management of post COVID morbidities.

Methods: This is a prospective observational study of patients with post-COVID RCOM conducted tertiary care hospital during May-June 2021.
Results: The mean age of patients was 49.
Background: Coronary heart disease risk factors are widely prevalent among urban subjects in India but the prevalence of good cardiovascular health is unknown.
Objectives: This multisite study sought to determine the prevalence of American Heart Association-defined ideal cardiovascular health factors.
Methods: The study was performed in 11 cities using cluster sampling.
Objectives: To determine the prevalence of diabetes and awareness, treatment and control of cardiovascular risk factors in population-based participants in India.
Methods: A study was conducted in 11 cities in different regions of India using cluster sampling. Participants were evaluated for demographic, biophysical, and biochemical risk factors.
Objective: Metabolic syndrome is an important cardiovascular risk factor. To determine its prevalence among urban subjects in India we performed a multisite study.
Methods: The study was performed at eleven cities using cluster sampling.
Objective: To determine levels of cholesterol lipoproteins and prevalence of dyslipidemias in urban Asian Indians.
Methods: Population based 6123 subjects (men 3388) were evaluated. Mean±1SD of various cholesterol lipoproteins (total, HDL, LDL and non-HDL cholesterol) and triglycerides were reported.
Background: To determine correlation of multiple parameters of socioeconomic status with cardiovascular risk factors in India.
Methods: The study was performed at eleven cities using cluster sampling. Subjects (n = 6198, men 3426, women 2772) were evaluated for socioeconomic, demographic, biophysical and biochemical factors.
