Description

Gregory Schwartz leads a team of fourteen in a 2027 analysis of three heart risk factors after a heart event. A fatty particle set by genes, smoking, and diabetes each raise the odds of a further attack or stroke. Whether their risks merely add or multiply each other was unknown.

The team re-read data from a large world trial of patients after acute coronary syndrome. Each factor raised risk on its own terms, and the three stacked in a plain additive way, with no extra spark when they met. The authors say the finding shapes how hard and how fast each factor should be tackled.
