The 1968 version of Oliver Twist in my mind is a classic. Anyone who has seen the film will remember that classic seen where Oliver asks for more:
Coronary heart disease (CHD), which usually presents as a heart attack (or myocardial infarction, MI) is the most common cause of death and disability both in the UK and globally. The way in which CHD is treated and prevented therefore has huge implications for patients, health professionals and policymakers. Once a person has a heart attack, prevention of further heart attacks, stroke or death, or secondary prevention, is crucial. There is strong evidence for benefit of several drugs and treatments after heart attacks to this end, including aspirin, statins, ACE inhibitors and beta-blockers.
