The evolving epidemiology of acute coronary syndromes.

TL;DR: The clinical entities that comprise acute coronary syndromes—ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction, non-STEMI, and unstable angina—have been recognized as widespread causes of death and disability for more than a century and rapid modernization of the developing world has led to a pandemic of coronary artery disease.
Journal ArticleDOI

Polyvascular disease, type 2 diabetes, and long-term vascular risk: a secondary analysis of the IMPROVE-IT trial.

TL;DR: The benefit of ezetimibe is consistent in patients with and without polyvascular disease and type 2 diabetes; however, by nature of their higher risk patients with one, or especially both, of these diseases might derive the greatest absolute benefits.
Journal ArticleDOI

Drug-induced expansion of infarct: morphologic and functional correlations.

TL;DR: The effects of indomethacin on the left ventricle in the early phase of infarction were studied to determine whether this action is associated with expansion of myocardial infarct during the first week of coronary occlusion and whether expansion affects ventricular function.
