Implication

The newly developed Chinese guideline provides tailored, evidence-based recommendations for the primary prevention of cardiovascular diseases in the Chinese population.

Key Points

To establish evidence-based recommendations tailored to the Chinese population for the primary prevention of atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease.
Consolidated existing recommendations, expert consensus documents, and clinical trial evidence into a unified clinical practice guideline.
Evaluated population-specific 10-year atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease prediction models derived from Chinese cohorts alongside traditional and non-traditional risk factors.
Synthesized evidence on lifestyle interventions, blood pressure goals, diabetes therapeutics, and lipid-lowering regimens.
The recommended Chinese 10-year risk prediction model achieved C-statistics of 0.760 for women and 0.769 for men, avoiding the risk overestimation seen with Western scoring tools.
The guideline established 10-year risk cut-offs of 5% and 10% for medium and high risk, setting essential blood pressure targets at <140/90 mmHg and optimal targets at <130/80 mmHg.
Moderate-intensity statins were established as the primary standard for lipid lowering due to increased statin sensitivity in East Asian populations, alongside cardiovascular-protective antidiabetic therapies.
