BACKGROUND • The author are not really clearly define the research problem and topic. • The research objectives also is not clearly stated. • However the author did mentioned on the previous studies regarding the aim which in this case is HRQL, though the reference used is more than 5 years old, therefore, the author failed to discuss current research on the problem • There are few specialized terminology usefully defined such as • HRQL – Health related Quality Life • E-ECHOES - Ethnic-Echocardiographic Heart of England Study
