Their findings, reported in the Journal of the American Medical Association, come from an analysis of eight studies involving around 235,000 people.

他们的这一发现来自于涉及了235000人的八份健康调查研究报告。

Based on incidence rates in the U.S., the researchers estimated that, for every two hours of daily TV viewing, 178 extra people per 100,000 risked getting type 2 diabetes and 38 risked suffering from fatal cardiovascular disease, with 104 cases of ‘all-cause mortality’.
