The EUROACTION study investigated the scope for improving on diet, smoking and exercise goals for high-risk coronary patient and others at risk of coronary disease. David Wood from London’s Imperial College presented findings from 10 000 patients at a “Hot Line” session of the Cardiology Congress. Afterwards he discussed the practical implications of the findings with Peter Goodwin.

Magnus Ohman, Duke University, Durham, North Carolina
Although atherosclerosis is often thought to be a western disease, conditions like coronary artery disase, cerebrovascular disease and peripheral arterial disease are prevalent and increasing in many other regions of the world, where insufficient action to avoid atherothrombotic disease has been taken.

Kenneth Morgan presented his data showing that older patients, too, have better survival and a reduction of stroke if they have primary pci rather than thrombolyis.
