    NEJM: The polypill reduces cardiovascular mortality by 33% in patients treated after myocardial infarction

    The results of the SECURE trial, coordinated by CNIC were presented in a Hot Line session at the European Society of Cardiology meeting (ESC 2022) in Barcelona and published at the NEJM

    Participants who followed the TANSNIP-PESA program (orange line) showed an improvement in lifestyle measures and cardiovascular health compared with participants in the control group (who did not participate in the intervention; blue line). The Y-axis shows changes in the Fuster -BEWAT lifestyle and cardiovascular risk score with respect to the baseline value.
