Myocardial infarction is one of the major diseases in China. It has become the major cause of an emergency over the past few decades owing to changing lifestyle and declining physical activity. In China, of men aged 30–44 years who die from cardiovascular disease, 46% of these deaths are attributable to tobacco. Additionally, there are more than 300 million smokers in China, nearly one-third of the world's total smoking population. This is projected to increase the risk of developing cardiovascular diseases, which is also expected to increase the demand for their demand. Thus, China is projected to witness considerable growth in the market during the forecast period.
