Define population attributable risk.

An athlete has been diagnosed with hypertrophic cardiomyopathy. Identify two other risk factors that may lead to sudden cardiac death.

Walking is associated with a lower risk of mortality. Discuss the benefits of regular walks on health.

the percentage/proportion of public health burden that is caused by a particular risk factor;

intensity of exercise induces the cardiac issue;

they are not used to exercising / do not take part in regular exercise «at the same intensity» which would prevent cardiac issues;

habitual weekly exercise/athletes who habitually exercise at high levels are more susceptible to SCD / elevates troponin levels which increases risk to SCD;

underlying medical history/genetic disposition;

improved metabolic rates / energy expenditure;

increased VO₂max;

improved plasma lipid profiles; improved plasma lipid profiles increase blood vessel health / decreased chance of clotting;

decreased adiposity around organs;

decreased blood pressure <as a result of fewer fatty deposits in blood vessels> creates less strain on vascular system;

reduced risk of osteoporosis / skeletal injuries;

improved mood / perception of self- esteem / endorphin release;

improved body composition lowers strain on skeletal system / heart / joints / blood vessels / chances of developing Type ii diabetes;

Ensure each factor is discussed appropriately. Award [1] max for a list.
