China

Non-communicable disease is the leading cause of death globally and cardiovascular disease (CVD) is the major contributor [1]. China is the most populous country in the world and has been experiencing a progressive increase in CVD, with recent studies showing that 30% of the population in China has ≥3 risk factors for CVD [2]. This effect appears to be more pronounced in urban areas where a western lifestyle has been adopted.
