There are major and minor risk factors for atherosclerosis (so I guess it could be primary and secondary; and also atherosclerosis is the leading cause of heart disease). Major risks are: hyperlipidemia, hypertension, smoking, diabetes Minor risk factors: male gender, obesity, sedentary lifestyle, stress (type A personality), elevated homocysteine, oral contraceptive use, increasing age, familial/genetic factors Notice how a person can control all the major risk factors and at least half of the minor risk factors just by having a healthy life style
