Wide uptake of cholesterol-busting statin drugs（降胆固醇药），healthier lifestyles and better medical practices have seen a huge reduction in deaths caused by heart attacks，stroke and other cardiovascular（心血管的） problems．

The new study，by experts at Oxford University，shows there has been a 44.4 percent drop in death rates among men in the UK and a 43.6 percent drop among women linked to heart problems in the ten years to 2011．
The team compared death rate associated with cardiovascular disease across Europe．They found that Britain has one of the best records in Europe，with 342 deaths as a result of heart disease per 100，000 men in 2011，and 232 per 100，000 women．
