The Importance of Inflammation in Cardiovascular Events
Culture scene can reduce the chance of MI and non-fatal stroke but it doesn't improve all cause mortality. The main learning point from this is that we shouldn't underestimate the importance of inflammation in driving cardiovascular events. Optimizing disease control may reduce their risk, even if we don't have specific medications to recommend like culture scene. There still would be a role for statins in terms of reducing their risk in every other way possible just like we do with lifestyle modification.
