    Edit: My apologies, it’s in the subtitle line cut out of context like this. I think this is the egregious fault of the publisher more than the author, probably some SEO BS, because again this was obviously not the intent of that sentence.

    My browser’s reader mode cut out that subtitle line, hence my original comment:

    Bad reading of the author’s intent and you ignore the immediately preceding sentence which provides context for your cherry picked quote:

    The researchers identified great heterogeneity in the prevalence between countries and also diverse risk factors, from dietary to behavioral.

    The intent of that paragraph is to highlight the diversity of risk factors, not to give the most prevalent ones.

    When you ask a text to do something it didn’t ever even pretend to want to do, of course you are going to come away disappointed. Media literacy. < Publisher accountability.

      It is the subtitle in its entirety, as the author of the article intended. That sentence didn’t grow legs and and walk all the way up to the top of the article by itself.

        hot damn my apologies my reader view cut out the subtitle. somehow i doubt that was the author’s intent though. i would blame the publisher for this because that’s a really poor manipulation of the text.
