At least it was Italy spending money on studies like this instead of the US. Glad to see stupidity in Gov't money allocation is not solely a US problem.
In that time period, 300 teens and young adults experienced sudden cardiac death, 55 of whom were athletes.
The above statement to me appears to contradict the following statement.
Among athletes, 2.3 out of 100,000 people experienced sudden death every year, while non-athletes showed a sudden death risk of less than one out of 100,000 people each year.
Unless I am reading this wrong, it would appear that a greater chance of sudden death exits among non-athletes?
