Major and profound changes have taken place in China over the past 30 years. Rapid socioeconomic progress has exerted a great impact on lifestyle, ranging from food, clothing, working and living conditions, and means of transportation to leisure activities and entertainment. At the same time, new health problems have emerged, and health services are facing new challenges. Presently, cardiovascular diseases (CVD) are among the top health problems of the Chinese people, and pose a serious challenge to all engaged in the prevention and control of these diseases. An epidemic of CVD in China is emerging as a result of lifestyle changes, urbanization and longevity. Both national policy decision-making and medical practice urgently need an authoritative report which comprehensively reflects the trends in the epidemic of CVD and current preventive measures. Since 2005, guided by the Bureau of Disease Prevention of the Ministry of Health of the People's Republic of China and the National Center for Cardiovascular Diseases of China, nationwide experts in the fields of epidemiology, clinical medicine and health economics in the realms of CVD, cerebrovascular disease, diabetes and chronic kidney disease, completed the Report on Cardiovascular Diseases in China every year. The report aims to provide a timely review of the trend of the epidemic and to assess the progress of prevention and control of CVD. In addition, as the report is authoritative, representative and readable, it will become an information platform in the CVD field and an important reference book for government, academic institutes, medical organizations and clinical physicians. This publication is expected to play a positive role in the prevention and control of CVD in China. We present an abstract from the Report on Cardiovascular Diseases in China (2010), including trends in CVD, morbidity and mortality of major CVDs, up-to-date assessment of risk factors, as well as health resources for CVD, and a profile of medical expenditure, with the aim of providing evidence for decision-making in CVD prevention and control programs in China, and of delivering the most authoritative information on CVD prevention and control for all citizens.

OBJECTIVE: To investigate the possible genetic associations between the C602A and T1559C polymorphisms of E-selectin (SELE) and essential hypertension. METHODS: Essential hypertensive patients (n = 500) and healthy normotensive subjects (n = 930) were screened for the genotypes C602A and T1559C by real-time quantitative polymerase chain reaction after DNA extraction to identify representative variations in the SELE gene. RESULTS: Normotensive subjects and hypertensive patients were significantly different with respect to the genotypes CC, CA and AA, 26 (5.2%), 20 (4.0%) and 454 (90.8%) vs 14 (1.5%), 53 (5.7%) and 863 (92.8%) respectively of C602A. And the C-allele frequency was also significantly different between the NT and EH groups (C, A = 7.2%, 92.8% vs 4.4%, 95.6%). When subgrouped by gender, frequency of CC, CA, AA between normotensive and essential hypertensive males was 14 (4.7%), 11 (3.7%), 272 (91.6%) and 10 (1.7%), 34 (5.8%), 545 (92.5%), which differed significantly (P < 0.05), while in female groups, all the frequency of genotypes were significantly different (P < 0.01) except CC + CA. The additive model (TT, TC, CC) of the T1559C genotype was significantly different between essential hypertensive and normotensive groups overall, 57 (11.4%), 200 (40.0%), 43 (48.6%) and 66 (7.1%), 354 (38.1%), 510 (54.8%), respectively. The T-allele of hypertensive patients significantly differed from normotensive subjects (T, C = 31.4%, 68.6% vs 26.1%, 73.9% respectively). When subgrouped by gender, between the male NT and EH groups, the TT, TC and CC frequency of T1559C were 36 (5.9%), 117 (39.4%), 144 (48.5%) and 35 (5.9%), 230 (39.0%), 354 (55.0%), and the frequency of T vs C was 31.4% vs 68.6% and 26.1% vs 73.9%, which were significantly different (all P < 0.01). As in female NT and EH groups, there were not significant differences existed at all. CONCLUSION: C602A and T1559C of SELE are associated with essential hypertension in the Chinese population, and T1559C is closely related with male hypertension other than in females.

OBJECTIVE: We aimed to investigate the polymorphism HindIII of the lipoprotein lipase (LPL) gene to explore whether it had a potential role in susceptibility to type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) among Han Chinese, and whether this effect was influenced by regulating LPL or other risk factors. METHODS: Overall, 654 Han Chinese adults were selected from a community-based cross-sectional study using a stratified cluster random sampling. Genotyping was performed using the PCR-RFLP technique, and the metabolic variables were measured using standard methods. RESULTS: Individuals with the HindIII H-/H- genotype tended to have higher pre-heparin LPL (PrLPL) and lower triglyceride levels but an unexpected higher prevalence of T2DM compared with the H+/H+ genotype carriers. The association between the H-/H- genotype and T2DM risk remained unchanged across all subgroups of lipids/glucose-related RF. In a recessive model, the H-/H- genotype conferred a 2.12-fold increased risk [odds ratio (OR): 3.12; 95% confidence interval (CI): 1.18-8.27] for T2DM after controlling for age and sex, and increased further after additionally adjusting for traditional RFs, and PrLPL (OR=4.45; 95% CI=1.51-13.07). CONCLUSIONS: This study indicated that Chinese adults with the LPL gene HindIII H-/H- genotype had a significantly increased risk of T2DM, even if they had favorable lipid profiles.

OBJECTIVE: To evaluate the relationship between serum non-HDL-C and incidence of various cardiovascular disease (CVD) in Chinese population aged 35-64 years. METHODS: This prospective study was performed from 1992 to 2004 in 11 provinces of China and the association between baseline non-HDL-C level with the risk of various CVD events was analyzed in 29 937 subjects aged 35-64 years using Cox multivariate proportional hazards regression. CVD events in this study including acute coronary events (ACE), ischemic stroke, hemorrhagic stroke and ischemic cardiovascular disease (ICVD). RESULTS: (1) Adjusted for age, gender, smoking status, diabetes, body mass index and blood pressure, the relative risk of ACE, ischemic stroke and ICVD in groups of non-HDL-C 3.37 - 4.13 mmol/L (130 - 159 mg/dl), 4.14 - 4.91 mmol/L (160 - 189 mg/dl) and ≥ 4.92 mmol/L (190 mg/dl) was 1.24 (0.91 - 1.70), 1.78 (1.25 - 2.53), 2.23 (1.48 - 3.35); 1.34 (1.07 - 1.68), 1.38 (1.04 - 1.83), 1.38 (0.97 - 1.94) and 1.37 (1.12 - 1.63), 1.52 (1.22 - 1.90), 1.70 (1.30 - 2.22), respectively. The risk of hemorrhagic stroke was declined obviously in group > 4.92 mmol/L (190 mg/dl). (2) The correlation between VLDL-C and ACE was the strongest in four CVD events when VLDL-C and LDL-C were joint analyzed, ICVD events ranked the second. The risk for ischemic stroke also borderline increased with increasing VLDL-C and LDL-C (P > 0.05). CONCLUSION: Increased non-HDL-C is associated with increased risk of suffering ACE, ischemic stroke and ICVD and VLDL-C plays a critical role in the development of ICVD events, especially ACS, in middle aged Chinese population.

OBJECTIVE: To explore the association between risk factors of cardiovascular diseases (CVD) and insulin resistance in a cross-sectional study. METHODS: An investigation on risk factors of CVD was carried out using stratified-random sampling method among 1475 participants in Beijing. Homeostasis model assessment index (HOMA) was calculated to assess the insulin resistance in 1359 non-diabetic subjects aged 25 - 64 years. Insulin resistance was defined as HOMA index (fasting glucose in mmol/L x fasting insulin in mU/L/22.5) in the top quartile of the studied population. RESULTS: The degree of correlation between risk factors and natural logarithm of HOMA index in descending order were glucose, body mass index (BMI), triglyceride (TG), waist circumstance, high density lipoprotein-cholesterol (HDL-C), uric acid, diastolic blood pressure, systolic blood pressure and total cholesterol (TC) (all P < 0.01). After adjusting factors as sex and age, glucose (r = 0.49), BMI (r = 0.44), TG (r = 0.44), waist circumstance (r = 0.41), uric acid (r = 0.33) and HDL-C (r = -0.32), the systolic blood pressure (r = 0.20), diastolic blood pressure (r = 0.18) and TC (r = 0.16) were independently correlated with HOMA index (P < 0.001). Sex (OR = 1.75), low HDL-C (OR = 1.80), hyperuricemia (OR = 2.11), high TG (OR = 2.14) and central obesity (OR = 2.68) appeared to be independently correlated to insulin resistance in multiple logistic regression analysis. CONCLUSION: The risk factors of CVD as low HDL-C, high TG, central obesity and hyperuricemia were independently correlated to insulin resistance.

OBJECTIVE: To explore the association between plasma fibrinogen (FIB) concentration and ten-year change in blood pressure in Chinese population aged 35 - 64. METHODS: A prospective cohort comprising 2683 subjects was established in Beijing in 1992. Blood pressure (BP) and other traditional cardiovascular risk factors were assessed in 1992 and 2002 respectively, and plasma FIB concentration was measured in 1992. The association of plasma FIB with ten-year change in blood pressure was analyzed. RESULTS: (1) The median concentration of FIB among this population was 3.8 g/L (3.2 - 4.3 g/L), and the percentage of the people with abnormal FIB concentration (FIB > 4.0 g/L) was 33.4% in 1992. The FIB concentration of the females was higher than that of the males (P < 0.01) and the FIB concentration of the hypertensive subjects was significantly higher than that of the non-hypertensive subjects (P < 0.05), however, there was no significant difference in the abnormal FIB rate among different age groups. (2) Compared with the BP levels in 1992, the systolic BP and diastolic BP of this population increased by 10.0 mm Hg and 5.0 mm Hg respectively in 2002. The partial correlation coefficients of baseline FIB concentration with ten-year difference for systolic and diastolic BP were 0.125 (P < 0.01) and 0.047 (P < 0.05) respectively, and the absolute value of 10-year increase of systolic pressure in the subjects with abnormal FIB was significantly higher than that in those with normal FIB (P < 0.01). (3) The BP grade 2002 was higher than the baseline grade in 1992 in 49.6% of the study population. The BP grade increase rate of the subjects with abnormal FIB was 55.3%, significantly higher than that of the subjects with normal FIB (46.8%, P < 0.05). (4) In the population without baseline hypertension the risk of BP grade increase within 10 years in those with abnormal FIB was 1.46 times the risk in those with normal FIB, the multivariable OR (95% CI) was 1.457 (1.201 - 1.768) for those with normal BP and 2.082 (1.422 - 3.048) for those with hypertension. CONCLUSION: Plasma FIB concentration is associated with the BP change. Improvement of high coagulation and high adhesion help control BP, especially in people with hypertension.

OBJECTIVE: To evaluate the association between white blood cell count and the risk of cardiovascular diseases (CVD) in subjects aged 35 - 64 years. METHODS: This prospective study was carried out in 11 provinces from 1992 to 2003. The association of baseline white blood cell count and cardiovascular disease occurrence was analyzed in 30 384 subjects aged 35 - 64 years using Cox multivariate proportional hazards regression. RESULTS: (1) Compared with the group of 4.0 - 4.9 x 10(9)/L, multivariate-adjusted relative risk of ischemic cardiovascular disease (ICVD, including coronary heart disease and ischemic stroke) increased continuously in proportion to increased white blood cell count. (2) White blood cell count had different impact on different types of CVD. Positive association was observed between white blood cell count and the risk of ischemic stroke, but the relationship between white blood cell count and the risk of hemorrhagic stroke was not significant. Compared with the referent group (4.0 - 4.9 x 10(9)/L), the risk of coronary heart disease of the group of white blood count > 9.0 x 10(9)/L increased by 70% (RR = 1.71, P < 0.05) and that of ischemic stroke increased by 80% (RR = 1.85, P < 0.01). CONCLUSION: The risk of ICVD and CVD increases continuously in proportion to increased white blood cell count, the white blood cell count might be used to predict future risk of CVD, especially risk for ICVD.

OBJECTIVE: To evaluate the predictive value of the combined measurements of body mass index (BMI) and waist circumference (WC) for the risk of cardiometabolic diseases (including diabetes, hypertension, and dyslipidemia) and ischemic cardiovascular disease. METHOD: A total of 30,378 Chinese people from 11 provinces were studied in this prospective study conducted from 1992 to 2003. Multivariable logistic and Cox regression were used respectively to determine the predictive value of WC for cardiometabolic diseases and ischemic cardiovascular disease within each BMI categories. RESULTS: (1) The prevalence of obesity were 10% defined by BMI. Among them, 76.4% had abdominal obesity defined by WC. The prevalence of abdominal obesity was 17.5% by WC categories, and 43.4% of them were classified as obesity by BMI. (2) The prevalence rates of cardiometabolic diseases were higher in individuals with elevated WC within each BMI category. (3) Compared with subjects with normal BMI and WC, the risk of ischemic cardiovascular disease increased by 38% (RR = 1.383, 95% CI 1.083 - 1.765) in overweight subjects with elevated WC and by 57% (RR = 1.570, 95% CI 1.226 - 2.010) in obese subjects with elevated WC. CONCLUSION: Combined measurements of BMI and WC provide a better prediction for the risk of cardiometabolic diseases and ischemic cardiovascular disease.

OBJECTIVE: To evaluate the association between serum triglyceride (TG) and the cardiovascular diseases (CVD) risk in Chinese population. METHODS: A total of 30, 378 men and women aged 35 - 64 years old were recruited in the Chinese-Chinese Multi-provincial Cohort Study (CMCS). The serum TG and other CVD risk factors were measured. All subjects were followed up annually or biannually for acute CVD events from 1992 to 2004. A Cox regression model was established to identify the association between TG and risk of CVD events. RESULTS: The accumulative incidence rate of acute coronary heart disease (CHD) events increased from 62.6/100 000 in the low TG groups to 168.4/100 000 in the high TG group divided by the quartile. TG was identified as an independent risk factor for CHD after adjustment for the confounding risk factors by a Cox regression model. Compared subjects with TG < 0.81 mmol/L, CHD risk increased 81% and 59% in subjects with TG 1.15 - 1.59 mmol/L and TG >/= 1.60 mmol/L, respectively (all P < 0.05). There was no significant association between TG level and the risks of hemorrhagic and ischemic stroke events (P > 0.05). CONCLUSION: Serum TG is an independent risk factor for acute CHD events in Chinese population aged 35 - 64.

OBJECTIVE: To investigate the risk of cardiovascular diseases (CVD) incidence related to different combinations of the metabolic syndrome (MS) components. METHODS: A total of 30,378 subjects aged 35 to 64 years were recruited from 11 provinces in a Chinese Multi-provincial Cohort Study and followed-up for new CVD) from 1992 to 2004. MS was defined under the new criteria 'Preventive Guideline of Dyslipidemia for Chinese Adults', issued in 2007. CVD incidence rates and relative risks (RR) were estimated by different MS components and by their various combinations. RESULTS: (1) According to the new criteria, the prevalence of MS was 11.8% for Chinese middle-age adults. The prevalence was 12.4% in men,significantly higher than that in women (9.0%). (2) Risk of CVD increased in proportion to the number of MS components after adjusting for other risk factors. If only 1 component was present, elevated blood pressure was the only significant predictor of CVD. When 2 components were present, 5 of the 10 combinations were associated with significantly higher risk. All combinations with > or =3 components (MS) had significant contribution except for those rare traits (<0.5% of the whole sample). Among the 16 combinations of > or =3 components,the feature of "central obesity and elevated blood pressure" was found in all the 7 combinations with the highest risk. CONCLUSION: CVD risk associated with various number and combinations of MS components seemed to be heterogeneous. The clustering of > or =3 disorders, especially those with central obesity and elevated blood pressure could significantly predict the future development of CVD.

OBJECTIVE: To compare the differences of cognitive functions in patients with hypertension and normotensives, and to analyze the primary influencing factors on cognitive functions. METHODS: This was a cross-sectional study carried out in two community populations of Beijing in 2001. The study subjects consisted of 83 hypertensive individuals aged 50-65 years, who were both stroke and dementia-free, the control group was chosen with 83 normotensives who were matched one by one with hypertensive individuals on age, sex, educational level and occupation. Socio-demographic, behavioral, medical history, and physiological data were collected on all participants through interview and medical examination. A comprehensive and computerized neuropsychological battery was administered. RESULTS: The total score of Basic Cognitive Ability Examination on hypertension (63.62) was worse than that among controls (68.58) with P < 0.01. Mean reaction time of Digit Discrimination of hypertensive (1.25) was longer than controls (1.17) with P < 0.05. The span of Digit Working Memory of hypertensive (4.96) was shorter than controls (5.63) with P < 0.05. The Score of Dual-Word Recognition of hypertensive (12.05) was lower than controls (13.45) with P < 0.01. Educational level, age and hypertension were the primary influencing factors on cognitive function. CONCLUSION: Patients with hypertension performed significantly worse than controls on velocity of perception, working memory and word memory. The findings suggested that the prevention of hypertension could protect cognitive function.

OBJECTIVE: To analyze the relationship of metabolic syndrome (MS) and its components at baseline to the 10-year incidence of diabetes mellitus. METHODS: An investigation on cardiovascular disease (CVD) risk factors, including questionnaire survey, physical examination, and laboratory examination, was carried out in the populations of 4154 subjects, aged 35 approximately 64, in 2 communities (Peking University and Capital Iron and Steel Company area) collected by cluster sampling in the year 1992, with a response rate of 82.0%, so as to obtain baseline data. In 2002 a follow-up survey was conducted among these same populations, aged 45 approximately 74 then with a response rate of 70.0%. Complete data were obtained from 2740 subjects during the 2 investigations. The data of 2659 subjects who were diagnosed as without diabetes mellitus type 2 (T2DM) during the baseline survey, 1177 males (44.3%) and 1482 females (55.7%), were analyzed. RESULTS: (1) 112 patients with T2DM were discovered during the follow-up survey with an incidence of 4.2%, the incidence being 5.0% in males and 3.6% in females. (2) The proportions of those with different MS components were higher among the T2DM patients than those without T2DM. The proportion of baseline high fasting glucose was 71.43% among those who were diagnosed as with T2DM during the follow-up survey. Of the MS components high fasting glucose had the highest proportion among the T2DM patients. (3) Adjusted for age and sex, the results using a logistic regression model showed that abdominal obesity, triglycerides and fasting glucose were the independent factors associated with T2DM in addition of blood pressure and HDL cholesterol. Among them, fasting glucose contributed mostly to T2DM with a relative risk (RR) of 7.14 (4.62, 11.03). (4) Compared with those without both MS and high fasting glucose, the relative risk of T2DM for persons with MS but without high fasting glucose was 2.91 times that for those without MS and with normal fasting glucose. CONCLUSION: MS is an independent indicator for incidence of T2DM. Among the MS components, high fasting glucose contributes mostly to T2DM; however, the prediction of MS for T2DM cannot be entirely explained by high fasting glucose. Those without high fasting glucose but with MS should take early intervention measures to prevent the incidence of T2DM.

OBJECTIVE: To establish cut offs and risk stratification of dyslipidemia in Chinese adults. METHODS: Data from 2 widely cited studies: the PRC-US Collaborative Study of Cardiovascular and Cardiopulmonary Epidemiology and the China Multi-Provincial Cardiovascular Cohort Study, with a total of 40 719 Chinese adults, age 35 to 64 at baseline, about half men and half women, followed up for a total of 345 140.5 person years, were used to analyze the relationship between dyslipidemia and ischemic cardiovascular diseases (ICVD, including coronary heart events and ischemic stroke events) using a common data analysis protocol co-developed by the scientists from the 2 studies. The relative risk was estimated with the Cox proportional hazard model adjusting for other conventional cardiovascular risk factors. The 10-year absolute risk of ICVD for a 50 years-old person at different risk factor combinations was used to develop the risk stratification. RESULTS: (1) There was a continuous linear relationship between baseline TC (or LDL-C) and ICVD risk without a threshold; (2) The incidence (absolute risk) of ICVD was similar for LDL-C < 3.37 mmol/L (130 mg/dl) and for TC < 5.18 mmol/L (200 mg/dl); and similar for LDL-C < 4.14 mmol/L (160 mg/dl) and for TC < 6.22 mmol/L (240 mg/dl); (3) The absolute ICVD risk for TC > or = 6.22 mmol/L (240 mg/dl) was slightly less but close to that for grade 1 hypertension; (4) ICVD risk increased as HDL-C decreased; (5) No significant association was found between baseline TG and subsequent ICVD; (6) At any TC level, the absolute ICVD risk for those having only hypertension was higher than that for those having 3 other risk factors. CONCLUSION: The cut offs for diagnosis of dyslipidemia in Chinese adults can refer to those used in relevant international guidelines: TC < 5.18 mmol/L (200 mg/dl) [or LDL-C < 3.37 mmol/L (130 mg/dl)] as normal, TC 5.18 - 6.19 mmol/L (200 - 239 mg/dl) [or LDL-C 3.37 - 4.12 mmol/L (130 - 159 mg/dl)] as borderline high, and TC > or = 6.22 mmol/L (240 mg/dl) [or LDL-C > or = 4.14 mmol/L (160 mg/dl)] as high; HDL-C < 1.04 mmol/L (40 mg/dl) as low, 1.04 - 1.53 mmol/L (40 - 59 mg/dl) as normal and > or = 1.55 mmol/L (60 mg/dl) as optimal. In risk stratification scheme, hypertension plays a role that equals to that of any other 3 risk factors.

OBJECTIVE: To evaluate the effect of lowering the fasting plasma glucose (FPG) cutoff point for the criterion of impaired fasting glucose (IFG) in the 2003 ADA guideline on the prevalence of IFG and risk of ischemic cardiovascular diseases (ICVD) associated with IFG in Chinese population. METHOD: A prospective study was carried out in 11 provinces from 1992 to 2003. The baseline survey was conducted according to the WHO-MONICA protocol for risk factor surveys. These subjects have been followed-up for coronary heart disease (CHD) and stroke since the baseline survey. The association between baseline FPG and ICVD (CHD and ischemic stroke) events in 30 378 subjects aged 35 - 64 years in the 10-year follow-up period was analyzed. RESULTS: (1) Lowering the criterion for diagnosing IFG to 5.55 mmol/L increased the prevalence of IFG from 6.9% to 21.6% in Chinese population aged 35 - 64 years. (2) As compared with the group of FPG less than 5.55 mmol/L, the prevalence of other traditional CVD risk factors increased in the FPG level of 5.55 - 6.05, 6.11 - 6.94 and 6.99 mmol/L or above. (3) Univariate analysis method showed that the 10-year accumulated incidence and relative risk for ICVD increased with the elevated baseline level of FPG. (4) After adjusting for age and other ICVD risk factors (including hypertension, lipid disorder, smoking and obesity) FPG level of 5.55 - 6.05 mmol/L showed an independently predictive value for ICVD in men (RR = 1.302, 95% CI = 1.021 - 1.660), but not in women (RR = 1.255, 95% CI = 0.887 - 1.776). Hypertension, low HDL-C, smoking (men) and central obesity (women) were more strongly associated with ICVD than glucose status. CONCLUSIONS: The newly defined IFG criterion (FPG 5.55 - 6.94 mmol/L) increased the prevalence of IFG by more than 2 times in Chinese population aged 35 - 64 years. The 10-year accumulated incidence and relative risk for ICVD increased with the elevated baseline level of FPG. The predictive value of hyperglycemia for ICVD was weaker than that of other traditional risk factors. Comprehensive intervention for multiple risk factors clustering should be strengthened to reduce the overall risk of CVD.
