Research on the diagnosis and treatment of myocardial infarction.

E. BRAUNWALD: * Arteriosclerotic coronary vascular disease is clearly the most important cause of death and disability in the modern Western world. It has been estimated that in the State of California alone during 1971 approximately 125,000 persons will have a myocardial infarction, that 60,000 will die as a consequence of this condition and that 17,000 of those who die will be under 65 years of age. An even larger number of patients will suffer from heart failure, angina pectoris and cardiac arrhythmias following recovery from a previous myocardial infarction. problem acute research understanding of the acute infarction episode-its predisposing causes, prog-nosis and to in this important in
