21 Feb Long Overdue Blog Update

Links to recent articles of interest:

Dr Emmet's recent discussion of CAD in women mentioned this AHA guideline - published in the Feb 14, 2011 issue of Circulation (Appropriately timed for valentine's day I suppose).  Some important points:

- Do Not use aspirin in healthy women <65 y/o for the purpose of coronary event prevention
- Do not use estrogens or SERMs to prevent CAD.
- Otherwise treat with same guidelines you would use for men.
