title: Identifying the cause of ischemic heart disease/myocardial infarction syndrome: a new approach.
abstract: Risk factor identification in the coronary heart disease/ myocardial infarction syndrome has failed to account for the epidemic pattern of increase in this century with recent decline. It is hypothesized that the true cause remains unidentified and that innovative application of traditional epidemiologic techniques, to correlate the identifiable peaks in different regions with possible agents, may prove successful.
