Hypertension is a primary driver of the escalating myocardial infarction burden in China, accounting for nearly two-thirds of cases and highlighting the critical need for targeted cardiovascular prevention strategies.
China's MI burden is escalating, with notable gender, age and residence disparities. Older adults and individuals with hypertension, dyslipidaemia, smoking or obesity face elevated risks. Hypertension contributes to nearly two-thirds of MI cases, emphasising the urgency for targeted prevention strategies, particularly in high-risk groups (hypertensive individuals, older adults and urban populations).
Zhang et al. (Sun,) conducted a observational in Myocardial infarction. Hypertension was evaluated on Myocardial infarction burden. Hypertension contributes to nearly two-thirds of myocardial infarction cases in China, with older adults, urban populations, and those with dyslipidaemia or obesity facing elevated risks.
