Perhaps this is why these drugs fail to reverse coronary calcification (and CIMT, respectively).<br /><br />I think most cardiologists are pretty dumb to this, dunno why...Dr. B Ghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15451872961651116061noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-36840063.post-82209407103147932412010-02-03T03:23:07.252+00:002010-02-03T03:23:07.252+00:00Great posts!!
