title: Heart attacks: possible risk factor.
abstract: Evidence is assembled from the literature to support the argument that myocardial infarction and death results from narrowing of coronary arteries-a process that may result from various causes, as discussed in this paper. Angiotensin and hypertension are suggested as among the chief components of such processes.
