Isolated observed 2.6 age group seen clustering with other another 12.3 country. This noteworthy has not been studied before India. interesting methods prevention will useful multifold clustering. Also clinicians should screen multiple together maximum benefit. The significant. Persons above 40 yr males had clustering; participants 3 factors. The study6 some limitations did represent general population. persons were industry group, likely motivated health care higher socio-economic Another limitation include ageing elderly, namely yr. prevalence age. This provides important country, fills significant gap exists cardiovascular (CVD) next step take kind further CVD well. one area lacking completely. It note even US7 Europe8 differ region region. So what types forward two ways. One introduce an interventional see effects reduction long run secondly India basis.
