  • Association of age at menarche and menopause, reproductive lifespan, and stroke among Chinese women

    Open AccessLu Chen, Xiaoyan Lu et al.ARTICLEJournal of Global Health2025

    Background: The association between age of menarche, age of menopause, reproductive lifespan and risk of stroke in Chinese women remains unclear and requires further clarification. Methods: A stratified multi-stage random sampling method was used to select participants at baseline in 2012-2015. The participants' basic information was collected through a standardised questionnaire by professional investigator and examined by trained medical person…

  • Air pollution is associated with abnormal left ventricular diastolic function

    Open AccessCongyi Zheng, Haosu Tang et al.ARTICLEBMC Public Health2023

    This large-scale nationwide population study demonstrated a significantly positive association between ambient PM 2.5 , PM 10 and NO 2 with ALVDF, especially for mild ALVDF. The functional abnormality may partially explain the enhanced cardiovascular morbidity and mortality associated with air pollution, which highlights the importance of appropriate interventions to reduce ambient air pollution in China

  • Cardiovascular disease and all-cause mortality associated with individual and combined cardiometabolic risk factors

    Open AccessXue Cao, Linfeng Zhang et al.ARTICLEBMC Public Health2023

    Cardiometabolic risk factors were associated with a multiplicative risk of CVD incidence and all-cause mortality, highlighting the importance of comprehensive management for hypertension, diabetes and dyslipidemia in the prevention of CVD

  • Evaluation of the Community-Based Hypertension Management Programs in China

    Open AccessGuang Hao, Zuo Chen et al.ARTICLEFrontiers in Public Health2022

    Purpose The National Essential Public Health Services Package (NEPHSP), a set of community-based hypertension management programs, was launched by the Chinese government in 2009. However, the data are limited for the comprehensive evaluation of NEPHSP on hypertension management. This study was to estimate the effect of NEPHSP on hypertension control nationwide in China. Methods Data were from China Hypertension Survey (CHS). The participants ( n …

  • Blue sky as a protective factor for cardiovascular disease

    Open AccessHaosu Tang, Congyi Zheng et al.ARTICLEFrontiers in Public Health2022

    Objective: Blue sky has been considered to boost outdoor physical activity and social interaction, ameliorate work pressure and life stress, and enhance people's sense of happiness. However, the direct association between blue sky exposure and cardiovascular disease (CVD) still lacks epidemiological evidence. In this study, we aimed to quantify their relationship via a nationwide prospective cohort in China. Method: We extracted the baseline data…

  • The prevalence and characteristics of metabolic syndrome according to different definitions in China

    Open AccessYilin Huang, Linfeng Zhang et al.ARTICLEBMC Public Health2022

    The prevalence and characteristics of the MetS vary with the definition used in the Chinese population. The three MetS definitions are more consistent in men but relatively poor in women. On the other hand, even if estimated according to the definition of the lowest prevalence, MetS is common in China

  • How protective is China’s National Ambient Air Quality Standards on short-term PM 2.5 ? Findings from blood pressure measurements of 1 million adults

    Open AccessTianjia Guan, Tao Xue et al.ARTICLEEnvironmental Research Letters2020

    Although short-term exposure to fine particulate matter (PM 2.5 ) air pollution has been shown to induce elevated blood pressure (BP), limited evidence is available regarding the association between ambient PM 2.5 and BP levels in nationwide China and how the association may change. This study sought to explore acute BP changes with exposure to PM 2.5 at levels below China’s current National Ambient Air Quality Standards (NAAQS). Based on a spati…

  • High-sensitivity C reactive protein and risk of cardiovascular disease in China-CVD study

    Ying Dong, Xin Wang et al.ARTICLEJournal of Epidemiology and…2019Cited by: 1References: 26

    BACKGROUND: This study aimed to assess the association of high sensitivity C-reactive protein (hs-CRP) with cardiovascular disease (CVD) in middle-aged Chinese population. METHODS: The baseline was collected 2009-2010, and follow-up was conducted in 2016-2017. Data of hs-CRP were from baseline examination and re-examination in 2016-2017 using transmission turbidimetry with a measurement range of 0-42 000. The primary outcome was CVD including cor…

  • Status of Hypertension in China

    Zengwu Wang, Zuo Chen et al.ARTICLECirculation2018

    BACKGROUND: Although the prevalence of hypertension (HTN) continues to increase in developing countries, including China, recent data are lacking. A nationwide survey was conducted from October 2012 to December 2015 to assess the prevalence of HTN in China. METHODS: A stratified multistage random sampling method was used to obtain a nationally representative sample of 451 755 residents ≥18 years of age from 31 provinces in mainland China from Oct…

  • Distribution of High-Sensitivity C-Reactive Protein and Its Relationship with Other Cardiovascular Risk Factors in the Middle-Aged Chinese Population

    Open AccessZengwu Wang, Xin Wang et al.ARTICLEInternational Journal of…2016

    Hs-CRP was associated with most of the known CVD risk factors. Measurement of hs-CRP may provide a more comprehensive view of the patient's overall risk profile in the Chinese population
