The five risk factors were chosen because they are considered modifiable: BMI, systolic blood pressure, non-high-density lipoprotein cholesterol, smoking and diabetes.\n  <\/p>\n<p>* The study reviewed data from over 1.5 million people involved in 112 population studies from 34 countries and 8 regions. \n  <\/p>\n<p>* The authors concluded that 57% and 53% of incidents of CVD among women and men, respectively, and 22% and 19% of deaths from any cause among women and men, respectively, may be attributable to these five modifiable risk factors.\n  <\/p>\n<p>* The inference was that these percentages of CVD and deaths could be avoided if the risk factors were modified.\n  <\/p>\n  <\/div>\n  <div class=\"mepr-unauthorized-message\">\n    <p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><strong><span style=\"color: #339966\"><em>The rest of this article is available to site subscribers, who get access to all articles plus a weekly newsletter.<br \/>\nTo continue reading, please login below or <a href=\"https:\/\/www.zoeharcombe.com\/site-membership-options\/\">sign up for a subscription<\/a>.
