Abstract

Objective: Based on the global burden of disease (GBD) 2019 study, to analyze the epidemic trend and risk factors of cardiovascular disease (CVD) in China by comparing the world, the United States, Japan and India. Methods data were obtained from the global health data exchange (ghdx) database. The prevalence, morbidity, mortality, disability adjusted life year (DALY) and other disease burden status and main risk factors of CVD in China were analyzed by sex and age; the age standardized rate was used to compare the change trend of CVD disease burden in China, the United States, Japan and India from 1990 to 2019.

Results: In 2019, the number of CVD patients in China was 12billion, with 123.41 million new cases and 458.43 million deaths; the prevalence, incidence rate, mortality and Daly rates increased from 423543/100000, 44781/100000, 20475/100000 and 509103/100000 in 1990 to 84608/100000, 86765/100000, 32230/100000 and 646347/100000 in 2019 respectively. The prevalence, incidence rate, mortality and Daly rate increased with age, and the burden of CVD in men was higher than that in women. In addition, the top 4 risk factors for CVD in China in 2019 are hypertension, diet, air pollution and tobacco, which lead to higher CVD disease burden than the global average. Conclusion: due to hypertension, dietary factors, air pollution, tobacco and other reasons, coupled with the rapid aging of the population, the disease burden of CVD in China is still very serious, which needs to be paid attention to by relevant departments.
