Why Is This Important?

The deaths of middle-age adults present a public health concern and an opportunity for prevention. In a typical year, the leading causes of death among persons aged 45-64 years are cancer and heart disease. Changes in lifestyle and getting scheduled tests could reduce the risk of getting cancer or heart disease or catch it in an early, more treatable stage.
