The participants were asked, “Has a doctor or other health professional ever told you that you have had a heart attack/coronary heart disease/angina/congestive heart failure/stroke?” A person was regarded as having CVD if they replied “yes” to any of the above questions. OBS-related ...
Although the benefits of salt, sugar reduction and balanced diet had been proven and suggested by World Health Organization (including reducing blood pressure, risk of cardiovascular disease, stroke and coronary heart attach), there was no research that ever investigated the correlation between salt, ...
In the next two sections, we explore two issues—difficulty defining best practice and the heterogeneous nature of the clinics—that were key to explaining why quality, when pursued in a 10-site collaborative, proved elusive. We then briefly summarize patients’ accounts of their experience in the...

the intermediate state corresponding to a flat mirror and nominally zero stress is very difficult to achieve. Typically, convex mirrors are preferred as they offer more flexibility for black level adjustment and a larger mirror stroke that potentially translates into better contrast in the image projec...
