Explanation:

The Framingham Heart Study is a long ongoing cardiovascular cohort study of residents of the city of Framingham. The reason that could explain the difference between the population and the Framingham is the fact that only adults participated. A population is not age-restricted.

Likewise, diabetes is a disease commonly found among adults.

The Framingham Heart Study was famous for coming up with the term risk factor and showed that a healthy diet, regular exercise and so on, can lower the risk factor of heart diseases.
