Neurologist: 10 modifiable risk factors explain ~90% of strokes, genetics not determinant

Argentine neurologist Conrado Estol will present at Bienestar Fest that ten modifiable risk factors account for nearly 90% of stroke cases, emphasizing prevention over genetic predisposition. The claim aligns with established INTERSTROKE study findings, though the specific percentage may vary by population. This reinforces public-health messaging on stroke prevention ahead of a major health event.
