TL;DR: In NSTE ACS, an invasive strategy has a comparable benefit in men and high-risk women for reducing the composite end point of death, MI, or rehospitalization with ACS, and evidence supporting the new guideline recommendation for a conservative strategy in low- risk women is provided.

TL;DR: The Cholesterol and Recurrent Events (CARE) trial investigated whether reducing average cholesterol levels by using pravastatin in patients who have had myocardial infarction would prevent recurrent cardiac events, and reported that patients who were older than the median age of 59 years had a reduced rate of coronary death, nonfatal myocardIAL infarctions, coronary artery bypass grafting, angioplasty, and stroke.

TL;DR: In this paper, a phase 3 comparison of the novel oral factor Xa inhibitor edoxaban to warfarin for the prevention of thromboembolism in patients with atrial fibrillation was conducted.

TL;DR: Findings in the MILIS population indicate that the prognosis after myocardial infarction is worse for women, particularly black women.

TL;DR: Clinical experience with nifedipine suggests that it is a highly effective drug for the treatment of coronary-artery spasm and variant angina.
