Study Summary

Coronary artery disease (CAD) remains the leading cause of death in the elderly.

Mental and emotional stress, in particular hostility and anger are potent inducers of SI, Individuals with SI are at a 3-5 fold higher risk for the development of angina, myocardial infarction and death than subjects without SI.
