A groundbreaking new study holds heartening
news for older Americans.

Since the mid-1990s, the number of seniors
who suffered a heart attack or died from one
dropped dramatically -- evidence that cam-
paigns to prevent heart attacks and improve
patient care are paying off, Yale University
researchers said.

The study of more than 4 million Medicare
patients found that hospitalizations for heart
attacks

o dropped 38 percent between 1995 and 2014.

o ... deaths within 30 days of a heart attack
reached an all-time low of 12 percent, down
more than one-third since 1995.

"This is really amazing progress." ... The
study looked at Medicare patients because
people 65 and older have the highest risk
for heart attack, and account for as many
as two-thirds of them, he said.

The turnaround stems from major efforts
to change people's lifestyles to reduce heart
attacks, and also to improve care so more
patients survive one ... .

... In-hospital care is also better now than
it was in the 1990s ... . Patients who arrive
at the hospital with a heart attack are now
treated within minutes, using procedures to
open blocked arteries, rather than the hours
it used to take ... .

And more patients are leaving the hospital
with prescriptions for blood pressure drugs,
aspirin and statins, which help prevent a
repeat heart attack.

What’s Going On With the New Aspirin Recom-
mendations? A look at how aspirin has been
used over the years—and where the medical
advice stands today. https://slate.com/technology/2021/10/aspirin-advice-heart-attack-bleeding.html - - -

An aspirin a day was, for decades, believed to
keep heart disease at bay, and older Americans
out of the doctor’s office. But proposed recom-
mendations from the U.S. Preventive Services
Task Force moved away from this piece of com-
mon wisdom last week.

Preliminary advice from the panel suggests that
Americans over the age of 60 who haven’t had a
heart attack or stroke should not take daily aspirin.

The panel also advised that high-risk patients ages
40 to 59 who haven’t had a heart attack speak to a
doctor before starting an aspirin regimen.

The recommendations, which will be finalized in
November at the earliest, follow a review of medi-
cal research, revealing that the risk of internal bleed-
ing from taking regular aspirin appears to outweigh
the benefits in those groups.

The directive against daily aspirin for many people
might seem like a bit of a flip-flop—aspirin is good!
Wait, now it’s bad! But delving into the history of
aspirin’s use for heart attacks makes it clear that
the shift has been a lot more gradual than that.

Aspirin, in some form, has been used to treat pain
for thousands of years. One of the earliest known
instances of aspirin being recruited to prevent heart
disease occurred during the 1950s, when Lawrence
Craven, a California physician, noticed that children
who chewed on aspirin-infused gum had bleeding
complications.

Craven figured that the drug’s blood thinning effects
could be harnessed to ward off heart attacks.

Craven asked all his healthy male patients between
the ages of 45 and 65 to take a daily aspirin. Within
the same decade, he published three research arti-
cles determining that aspirin warded off heart attack
and stroke.

(It’s been reported that Craven asked patients who’d
recovered from a heart attack to take an aspirin as
well.) Though Craven and other physicians prescribed
aspirin off-label as a preventative, larger, more robust
clinical investigations of aspirin’s effect on the pri-
mary prevention of cardiovascular disease didn’t begin ...

... until the 1970s and 1980s. (Primary prevention re-
fers to medical intervention in patients at risk for a
heart attack or stroke but who haven’t had one.) It
was around that time that doctors also began giving
aspirin as soon as they could after a heart attack.

Also in the ’80s, the Food and Drug Administration is-
sued two important authorizations for aspirin use:

o In 1980, aspirin was approved for preventing future
strokes in folks who’d already had one, and in 1985,
the same endorsement was announced for people
who’d had heart attacks.

o During the early 1990s, the American College of
Chest Physicians recommended that aspirin be used
for preventing the first heart attack or stroke in people
over the age of 50. And, in 1995, the Physicians’ Health
Study, which began in 1982, released its findings that
a low-dose aspirin did in fact decrease the risk of the
first heart attack.

Since then, the need for aspirin as a stroke and heart
attack preventative has declined as medicine has got-
ten better at stopping them from happening in the first
place.

“We’re now doing a much better job of controlling
blood pressure, of controlling cholesterol—maybe
even, you know, to a certain extent dealing with 7
Disparate High Glucose Conditions (the predomin-
ant one estimated to be the one present in ~95% of
people with any DHGC, Cellosis) and fewer people
are smoking.”

With those risk factors supposedly being dealt with
better, people who haven’t had a heart attack just don’t
need aspirin.

“In the early 2000s, when somebody came to me and
said, ‘Well, I want to reduce my risk of having a heart
attack or stroke,’ aspirin would be one of the first things
to discuss.” ... “Now it is like the third or the fourth thing.”

There’s been mixed evidence on aspirin for a while now,
with some doctors arguing against recommending it
for everyone in older age groups as early as 2012 ... .

The doubt got a boost in 2018 when three large-scale
clinical trials, including a total of more than 47,000 par-
ticipants, solidified the idea that daily aspirin isn’t a per-
fectly harmless healthy habit. ...

... “For primary prevention, aspirin may well have run
its life course,” ... “We’re really understanding, if we
take away the fuel that creates plaques in our arteries
—that is what leads to heart attacks and strokes—then
we don’t need the safety net of aspirin anymore.”

... but still, one person in the U.S. dies of car-
diovascular disease every 38 seconds, and it con-
tinues to be the greatest killer of Americans,"
... "[the reductions are] wonderful advances in
the war against heart disease, but our war is
still not finished."

JAMA Network Open. To learn more about heart at-

Disparate High Glucose Conditions,
DHGCs, 7 disparate categories of
unpreventability / nonreversibility
of all-but-one of the specific types
of DHGCs (thus far, research actively
trying to change that):

o 15 specific types of rapid-onset Insul-
initis (Islit), unpreventable & nonrevers-
ible (thus far), the overwhelming majority
with Islit have Insulitis Islit (sometimes
called type 1 diabetes, often confusingly
called diabetes with no clarifier) https://prohuman.net/pix2/new_superior_clarifying_name_is_INSULINITIS.jpg

14 specific types of Islit are not caused
by Insulitis, present in a small minority
of those with Islit.

o 1 specific type of slow-onset Islit, Latent
Autoimmune Islit, also unpreventable &
nonreversible (thus far) (sometimes called
latent autoimmune diabetes in adults, often
confusingly called diabetes with no clarifier)

o Preventable Cellosis is the only specific
type of DHGC that is preventable & revers-
ible (in many, sometimes it's called type 2
diabetes, often confusingly called diabetes
with no clarifier)

Risk for Preventable Cellosis, Hypertension,
& Cardiovascular Disease increases as one's
weight increases but BMI risk increases at
lower BMI levels in non-white individuals: https://prohuman.net/pix2/BMI-WaistCircumference-Cellosis&Hypertension&CardiovascularDisease-Risk.jpg
https://medicalxpress.com/news/2021-05-bmi-offs-obesity-diabetes-non-white.html

PreCellosis (often confusingly called pre-
diabetes with no clarifier) is the oft-times
preventable & reversible Cellosis precondi-
tion that all-too-often the overwhelming ma-
jority having it are unaware they have it

o 20 specific types of Cellosis, unpreven-
table & nonreversible (thus far, sometimes
called type 2 diabetes, all-too-often con-
fusingly called diabetes with no clarifier)

o 1 specific type of DHGC only occurring
in the late stage of impregnation in women,
a type that's transient but that increases
risk of later getting Cellosis, that ...

... condition called Gestational Cellosis
(sometimes called gestational diabetes,
sometimes confusingly called diabetes with
no clarifier).

o 11 specific types of Diminosis (new name
created in 2010 for a monogenic condition

age 6 months that sometimes is called

maturity onset diabetes of the young, some-
times confusingly called diabetes with no
clarifier), unpreventable & non-reversible
(thus far).

o 12 specific types of Neonatal Diminosis
(new name created in 2010 for a monogenic
condition at age < or = 6 months that some-
times is called neonatal diabetes, sometimes
confusingly called diabetes with no ...

... clarifier), 8 types are permanent & unpre-
ventable & nonreversible (thus far); 4 specific
types are transient but can recur.

o 25 specific types of Ohiglucons (new name
created in 2010 for other diabetes mellitus,
but often confusingly called diabetes with
no clarifier).

23 specific types are totally unpreventable.

Hemochromatosis Ohiglucon, is only preventa-
ble if Hemochromatosis is found and treated
before it damages the pancreas.

Immunosuppressants Ohiglucon, caused after
a transplant with the required use of immun-
osuppressants, 50% is temporary, but if it
persists for over a year, most likely the condi-
tion is permanent.

If endogenous insulin production is near-totally
to totally lost & does not recover after immuno-
suppressants dosages reduced, it causes Im-
munosuppressants Islit.

- - -

A mostly Non-Glucose Anomaly, Insipidus, it's
also unpreventable & nonreversible (thus far):

o 6 specific types of Insipidus (new name
created in 2010 for diabetes insipidus, some-
times confusingly called diabetes with no clar-
ifier), 4 specific types don't include high glucose
& are unpreventable & nonreversible (thus far),
2 specific rare types do include high glucose &
are unpreventable & nonreversible (thus far).

The following condition is apart from the
diabetes confusion problem, but has confu-
sion issues of its own.

A Low Glucose Condition, Hut:

o The 21 specific types of Hut (new name
created in 2010 for Hypoglycemia Uncaused
by Treatments for High Glucose, often con-
fusingly called reactive hypoglycemia, con-
fusing in that it does not occur as a reac-
tion to treatment for High Glucose; one ...

... form sometimes called hyperinsulinism),
some specific types are preventable & rever-
sible, some aren't (thus far).
