It shows that using well-known, comprehensive interventions to tackle the seven leading risk factors - tobacco, alcohol, high blood pressure, high cholesterol, overweight, low fruit and vegetable intake, and physical inactivity - would largely prevent the seven leading conditions - ischaemic heart disease, unipolar depressive disorders, cerebrovascular disease, alcohol-use disorders, chronic pulmonary disease, lung cancer and road traffic injury. This creates a compelling argument for action. 606 $aHeart Diseases$xepidemiology 606 $aGlobal Health 606 $aHealth Promotion 606 $aStroke$xepidemiology 606 $aRisk Factors 615 12$aHeart Diseases$xepidemiology. 615 22$aGlobal Health. 615 22$aHealth Promotion. 615 22$aStroke$xepidemiology. 615 22$aRisk Factors. 676 $a616.12 700 $aMackay$b Judith$01607641 702 $aMensah$b George A 702 $aWorld Health Organization 712 02$aWorld Health Organization 801 0$bPQKB 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910813447803321 996 $aThe atlas of heart disease and stroke$93934004 997 $aUNINA
