Mid-30s. NSTEMI. Lessons (re)learned:
➡️ Support, support, support

➡️ IVL = no excuse left not to modify Ca++
➡️ IVUS (or OCT). Name of the game is decreased ISR risk

Yet another unique way to stimulate cellular immunity against cancer.
“Using the gut immune system to induce cellular immunity is a unique approach,” Shirakawa notes. “And it should be very easy to extend it to other antigen proteins and also infectious diseases.”

Inducing immunity against cancer via the gut
Could a microbe that can smuggle antigens into the immune system of the gut provide a simple way to treat cancers?

Keep it simple, stupid.
We often neglect the basics in medicine, and this paper was a timely reminder for me. High blood pressure affects ~48% of US adults, and while medications are effective, they come with side effects, cost, and can be an "easy" way out.

~50% of the US population pursues "wellness," whether through fads/trends or supplements. If I hone in on the demographic I tend to see in clinic, over 50% take at least one supplement, with over 50% of US adults over the age of 55 taking a supplement aimed at "heart health."
