AB  - The  most  common  causes  of  death  in  both  men  and  women  are  heart  disease  and  cancer,  with  lung  cancer  the  top  cause  of  cancer  death,  despite  common  misperceptions  that  breast  cancer  is  the  most  common  cause  of  death  in  women.  These  misconceptions  perpetuate  inadequate  attention  to  modifiable  risk  factors  in  women,  such  as  dyslipidemia,  hypertension,  and  cigarette  smoking.  Furthermore,  since  women  in  the  United  States  live  on  average  about  5  years  longer  than  men,  the  majority  of  the  disease  burden  for  many  age-related  disorders  (e.g.,  hypertension,  Alzheimer’s  disease  [AD])  rests  in  women.
