You can make a sentence with "at a risk of" in it but I think it's less common.

Because of the heat it was at a risk of exploding.

You could also say that without "a" in it.

A: "Getting out of your car on the freeway can be dangerous." " I laugh in the face of danger. (hahaha)" "I too like to live dangerously."

A: hmmm... now that I think of it, “to take a risk” sounds a bit more active, like you’re moving out of your own volition and free will, that you are the one choosing to take up a challenge or risk. “To run a risk” sounds a bit more passive, and a bit like you are less in control (though this may not always be the case).

A: "Hazard"- a situation or thing that can potentially harm a person

A: Here is an two examples showing the difference:

"There comes a risk if you start a business. "

Though if you change "comes at a risk" to "comes a risk" you can use it as a starting clause in the sentence.

A: "Evaluated whether contraceptive training sufficiently reduced the risk of unplanned pregnancy by xx%."

"Evaluated contraceptive training as to its effect on unplanned pregnancy rates."

"Evaluated contraceptive training's reduction of risk of unplanned pregnancy."


"whether" might be the wrong word choice if you want to talk about a specific % number. It makes it sound more like a problem with only two opposite options. (Up or down, Reduction or expansion, growth or decline, etc)

Both "Risk reduced by" and "risk decreased by" sound natural, but my ear prefers "reduce" over "decrease" and I don't know why.

"Individuals with contraceptive training have a decreased risk of unplanned pregnancy."

"Evaluated contraceptive training to decrease risk of pregnancy by xx%"

A: It depends... There really isn't a simple answer that is a 'one size fits all.'

It's hard to explain, but what I mean by that is that there are different tones for written pieces that isn't really meant to be read aloud, and for pieces of text that are.

This one is grammatically correct in written context, and it would also be correct if you added a comma to it.

Basically just access whether or not if what you're writing is to be read aloud or not. If it is then read it aloud, if not then just make sure it's grammatically correct in written form.
