title: [The "top" of cardiology literature in 2004: an annual selection of the American Heart Association].
abstract: The American Heart Association has once again released its top ten research advances in heart disease and stroke for the past year. As always, the selection is assorted. It contains very pointed, at times preliminary, research, as well as major clinical trials; it also reports findings that seem of particular interest for an American audience or come as a support for a special programme proposed by the association. Reading these ten abstracts is, however, invariably rich of enlightenment, and stimulation for everyone.
