Journal ArticleDOI
C-Reactive Protein and Other Markers of Inflammation in the Prediction of Cardiovascular Disease in Women
TL;DR: The addition of the measurement of C-reactive protein to screening based on lipid levels may provide an improved method of identifying persons at risk for cardiovascular events.
Journal ArticleDOI
Inflammation, Aspirin, and the Risk of Cardiovascular Disease in Apparently Healthy Men
TL;DR: The reduction associated with the use of aspirin in the risk of a first myocardial infarction appears to be directly related to the level of C-reactive protein, raising the possibility that antiinflammatory agents may have clinical benefits in preventing cardiovascular disease.

TL;DR: There was no appreciable evidence that either a higher aspirin dose or any other antiplatelet regimen was more effective than medium dose aspirin in preventing vascular events, so in each of the four main high risk categories overall mortality was significantly reduced.

TL;DR: In primary prevention without previous disease, aspirin is of uncertain net value as the reduction in occlusive events needs to be weighed against any increase in major bleeds.

Epidemiology in Medicine
TL;DR: The core of the subject remains essentially simple, and a good epidemiological study should be capable of describing in such a way that all who are interested in the cause of disease can follow the argument and decide for themselves the validity of the conclusions as mentioned in this paper.
