Beyond secondary prevention drugs: Added benefit in survival and events of a healthy lifestyle in patients after an acute coronary syndrome
Among patients with ACS and similar medical therapy, a healthy lifestyle is an independent and added marker of a lower incidence of new ischemic events and death. It is also associated with a better lipid profile and lower inflammation after the ACS. As the prognosis of ACS has improved over the years due to better therapies; this study shows that lifestyle modifications continue to offer significant benefit at this point in time.
