Cardiovascular diseases (CVD) represent a challenging health issue in the 21st century. Data from sub-Saharan African populations are insufficient. The objective of this study was to compare prevalence of risk factors of CVD between men and women. The study was a community-based survey for a sample of 1056 persons. Mean age of participants was 47.97±16.90 years with 46.40±19.10 years for men and 48.92±15.33 years for women. Based on anthropometric parameters women constitute more vulnerable to cardiovascular diseases. Women also presented higher body cholesterol and the highest prevalence of diabetes compared to men. In conclusion, the study showed a sex-difference risk of CVD among Senegalese populations and women were shown more likely to present higher risk of CVD.
