“…This survey was conducted in typical multi-ethnic rural areas in Xinjiang where approximately 95% of the populations were the Uyghur, the Han, the Kazakh and the Kyrgyz. They have their own special genetic characteristics and lifestyle which are quite different from either the Hans in inland provinces of China or American/European populations 15 , 16 . According to three most widely used criteria, the age-standardized prevalence of MetS were 14.43% (ATPIII), 21.33% (IDF), and 26.50% (JIS), respectively.…”

Metabolic syndrome (MetS) has become a global public health problem affecting all nations and races. Few studies on the epidemic of metabolic syndrome (MetS) examined multi-ethnic adults in rural areas in Xinjiang, China. We thus investigated the prevalence and risk factors of MetS there. A cross-sectional study was performed in a representative sample of 15020 rural multi-ethnic adults from 2009 to 2010. Four widely used criteria (ATPIII\IDF\JIS\CDS) were used to measure the prevalence of MetS. Multiple logistic regression analysis was used to explore the risk factors of MetS. The age-adjusted prevalence of MetS was 14.43%, 21.33%, 26.50%, and 19.89% based on the ATP III, IDF, JIS and CDS criterion, respectively. The prevalence of MetS was higher in women and increased with age. According to JIS criterion, the prevalence of components in MetS was 57.75% for abdominal obesity, 44.05% for elevated blood pressure, 40.98% for reduced HDL-cholesterol, 23.33% for elevated triglycerides, 18.95% for raised fasting plasma glucose. Lower consumption of vegetables, milk, and higher consumption of red meat were associated with higher likelihood of having MetS. The prevalence of MetS in Xinjiang rural multi-ethnic adults was high. Diet factors were associated with the prevalence of MetS.

“…In the UK, a recent population-based study reported a 51% VHD prevalence in the older population [ 7 ]. Previous studies conducted in hospitals or a single province in China reported limited information on the etiology and severity of VHD [ 8 – 10 ]. The aim of this study, therefore, is to assess the current status and etiology of VHD from the echocardiography data of a large nationwide population sample.…”

Background The epidemiology of valvular heart disease (VHD) has changed markedly over the last 50 years worldwide, and the prevalence and features of VHD in China are unknown. The objective of this study was to investigate the current status and etiology of VHD in China. Methods We used a cross-sectional national survey with stratified multistage random sampling from the general Chinese population to estimate the VHD burden. Data on demographic characteristics, medical history, physical examination, blood tests, and potential etiology were collected. Echocardiography was used to detect VHD. Results The national survey enrolled 34,994 people aged 35 years or older across China. Overall, 31,499 people were included in the final analysis, and 1309 participants were diagnosed with VHD. The weighted prevalence was 3.8%, with an estimated 25 million patients in China. The prevalence of VHD increased with age and was higher in participants with hypertension or chronic kidney disease than in their counterparts. Among participants with VHD, 55.1% were rheumatic and 21.3% were degenerative. The proportion of rheumatic decreased with age, and the proportion of degenerative rose with age. However, the prevalence of rheumatic disease was still higher in the elderly population than in the younger population. Logistic regression revealed that age and hypertension were correlated with VHD. Conclusions In China, rheumatic heart disease was still the major cause of the VHD, with a significant increase in degenerative heart disease. Age and hypertension are important and easily identifiable markers of VHD.

The diet impact on metabolic syndrome(MetS) and cardiovascular diseases has been investigated widely, but few studies investigated the association between dietary patterns(DPs) and the the predicted cardiovascular disease, derived from reduced-rank regression (RRR). The objectives of this study were to derive DPs using RRR and principal component analysis (PCA), and investigate their associations with MetS and estimated 10-year atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease (ASCVD). We used the baseline dataset from the Xinjiang multi-ethnic cohort study in China, collected from June 2018 to may 2019. A total of 14982 subjects aged 35-74 years from Urumqi, Huo Cheng, and Mo Yu were included in the analysis. The 10-year ASCVD risk was estimated using the Chinse ASCVD risk equations. The associations of DPs with MetS and 10-year ASCVD were determined using multivariable logistic regression models. In Urumqi and Mo yu, the increased RRR DP score was associated with a higher odds ratio (OR) of having the MetS and with a higher OR of elevated 10-year ASCVD risk. However, Only the first DP determined by PCA in Urumqi were inversely associated with MetS and elevated 10-year ASCVD risk. The prevalence of MetS and elevated ASCVD risk in urban population is higher than that in rural areas. Our results may help nutritionists develop more targeted dietary strategies to prevent MetS and ASCVD in different regions in China.
