Paragraph 2
In the study, doctors analyzed 10 years of health
of nine million people in South Korea and 7,000 people in the USA. Nearly
of the patients could have avoided heart attacks and strokes. Lead
Dr Philip Greenland said: "We have known for many
that there is a small number of modifiable risk
for heart disease, and at least
, but often more than one, is present in the
leading up to heart attacks, heart failure, or strokes." He added: "Efforts need to be made to treat that factor to prevent heart attack, stroke, or heart
." Dr Greenland said: "The
now is to work harder on finding
to control these modifiable risk factors."
