Why the study?
Cardiovascular disease is the leading cause of death and carries a heavy burden in China, prompting an evaluation of mortality data to inform disease control and prevention.
This study reports on the cardiovascular disease mortality burden in China for the year 2019 to inform disease control and prevention.
Provides 2019 CVD mortality benchmarks for China; extends surveillance data while leaving open causal links to interventions.
Introduction: Cardiovascular disease (CVD) is the leading cause of death and has caused a heavy burden in China. China has about 106 million CVD patients, including 33 million with stroke.
