Simple jogging test may reveal risk of heart attack - Times of India

LONDON: Are you middleaged and worried about having a heart attack? Well, a simple jogging test could reveal your risk, says a new study.

Researchers at the University of Texas have carried out the study and found how fast a middle-aged man could run a mile may determine their risk of heart attack or stroke over the next 10 years.

For the study, researchers collected information from 11,000 men who underwent a clinical exam and a treadmill exercise test at Cooper Clinic in Dallas between 1970 and 1990.
