In total, more than 35 thousand doctors and medical workers were the delegates and participants of the congress.

Within the framework of the congress, joint symposia of the international organizations were held, which covered global issues of epidemiology and prevention of cardiovascular diseases. Experts paid attention to both primary and secondary prevention, as well as rehabilitation of patients with various heart diseases. The program presented the results of genetic studies in various heart diseases, the use of high technology and artificial intelligence for the diagnosis and treatment of cardiac patients. Given the importance of cardiometabolic disorders in the development of cardiovascular complications, dozens of symposia on this topic were organized, as the impending pandemic affects the adult population in most Asian countries, including China, India and Japan.
