title: [Awareness rate, treatment rate and control rate of dyslipidemia in Chinese adults, 2010].
abstract: OBJECTIVE
  To explore the awareness, treatment and control rates of dyslipidemia among Chinese adults aged over 18 in 2010, and to analyze the prevalent features.
  
  
  METHODS
  97 409 subjects aged over 18 were recruited from 162 monitoring sites around 31 provinces in China mainland in 2010, applying multi-stage stratified cluster random sampling method. Information about subjects' history of dyslipidemia, treatment and control were collected by face-to-face interview; and each subject's fasting venous blood was drawn in the morning before having food, to test total cholesterol (TC), triglyceride (TG), high density lipoprotein-cholesterol (HDL-C) and low density lipoprotein-cholesterol (LDL-C). In total, 51 818 cases of dyslipidemia ever or now, including 2235 subjects who once suffered from dyslipidemia but had their blood lipid controlled to normal, were screened out. And the awareness, treatment and control rates were calculated by complex weighting.
  
  
  RESULTS
  The awareness rate of dyslipidemia among Chinese adults was 10.93%, while the stratified rates were 6.00%, 16.75% and 18.74% in the groups of subjects aged 18 - 44, 45 - 59 and over 60 years old, respectively (χ² = 1293.02, P < 0.01); 10.32% and 11.71% among males and females, respectively (χ² = 18.67, P < 0.01); 16.59% and 8.17% in groups from urban and rural areas, respectively (χ² = 618.38, P < 0.01); and 12.22%, 11.75% and 8.26% in groups from eastern, central and western China, respectively (χ² = 117.04, P < 0.01). The treatment rate of dyslipidemia was 6.84% among Chinese adults, while the stratified rates were 3.55%, 10.73% and 12.05% in the groups of subjects aged 18 - 44, 45 - 59 and over 60 years old, respectively (χ² = 858.72, P < 0.01); 6.37% and 7.43% among males and females, respectively (χ² = 16.69, P < 0.01); 10.17% and 5.21% in groups from urban and rural areas, respectively (χ² = 327.51, P < 0.01); and 7.33%, 7.52% and 5.41% in groups from eastern, central and western China, respectively (χ² = 50.71, P < 0.01). The control rate of dyslipidemia was 3.53% among total subjects, while whose stratified rates were 1.64%, 5.49% and 6.94% in the groups of subjects aged 18 - 44, 45 - 59 and over 60 years old, respectively (χ² = 554.12, P < 0.01); 2.57% and 4.75% among males and females, respectively (χ² = 131.04, P < 0.01); 5.23% and 2.70% in groups from urban and rural areas, respectively (χ² = 165.13, P < 0.01) ; and 4.21%, 3.89% and 2.17% in groups from eastern, central and western China, respectively (χ² = 91.45, P < 0.01).
  
  
  CONCLUSIONS
  The awareness, treatment and control rates of dyslipidemia have been comparatively low among Chinese adults, especially among the population who were young, or who were from rural area or western China.
