Prevalence of hypertension, diabetes, and dyslipidemia, and their additive effects on myocardial infarction and stroke: a cross-sectional study in Nanjing, China

Abstract

The burden of hypertension and diabetes has stopped increasing. However, total cholesterol (TC) concentration in the population has not been well controlled. A more comprehensive approach to managing dyslipidemia, hypertension, and diabetes needs to be developed, especially for individuals with multiple cardiovascular risk factors.
