”Informative new vignettes about Inflammation and Cardiovascular Disease. Inflammation and traditional risk factors work together!
The title echoes a paper I did a few years ago: Strandberg TE, Libby P, Kovanen PT. A tale of two therapies lipid-lowering vs. anti-inflammatory therapy: a false dichotomy? Cardiovasc Pharmacol 2021;7(3):238-241. ”
Qutoing International Atherosclerosis Society‘s post:
”It’s Inflammation Monday!
