Counts group repeated records of the same source within each side. They do not measure evidence strength or source independence.

Is it true that cardiovascular risk remains higher in women than in men regardless of the geographical area?

No. Cardiovascular risk is not universally higher in women than in men; rather, epidemiological data consistently show that men experience a higher burden of cardiovascular disease and events across most populations and regions.

Verdict: REFUTED · 0 sources for, 2 against · Last checked

The analysis

The claim asserts that cardiovascular risk is higher in women than in men regardless of geographical area. However, established epidemiological data and reviews indicate that men generally have higher cardiovascular risk and disease incidence than women at comparable ages. Therefore, the claim is refuted by the literature.
