Prevalence of cardiovascular risk factors according to sociodemographic status. Panel A: Prevalence of cardiovascular risk factor according to age. People in the 55–64 age group were more likely to smoke and use alcohol; people in the 45–54 age group had a higher prevalence of overweight/obesity; and people in the 65–75 age group had a higher prevalence of hypertension, dyslipidemia and diabetes mellitus. Panel B: Prevalence of cardiovascular risk factor according to sex. Women were less likely to have these risk factors than men, except that they had a higher prevalence of dyslipidemia. Panel C-F: Prevalence of cardiovascular risk factor according to socioeconomic status. People with ≥ high school degree had a lower prevalence of overweight/obesity, hypertension, dyslipidemia and diabetes mellitus, while they were more likely to smoke and use alcohol. People with annual household income ≥ 50,000 RMB were more likely to smoke and use alcohol and had a higher prevalence of overweight/obesity and dyslipidemia, while they had a lower prevalence of hypertension and diabetes mellitus. People from urban were less likely to smoke and had a lower prevalence of overweight/obesity and diabetes mellitus, while they had a higher prevalence of hypertension and dyslipidemia. Farmer were more likely to smoke and had a higher prevalence of hypertension and diabetes mellitus, while they had a lower prevalence of overweight/obesity and dyslipidemia
