The objective of the program committee of the Fifth International
Symposium on Atherosclerosis was to bring together experts in many
disciplines to broaden the scope of the attack on this disease and
to foster interaction. Our hope was that such interaction would
accelerate the eradication of the disease. The symposium achieved
that objective and con tinued the tradition of the previous
symposia in providing a forum for summaries of recent research
developments in the study, treatment and prevention of
atherosclerosis. The leading authorities and researchers in this
field and in the related areas of interest have presented the
newest information, concepts and ideas that have evolved in the
past three years since the previous meeting in Tokyo. The most
promising fields for future investigation are clearly identified,
as are the nature of the controversies that persist in some highly
important aspects of treatment of this disease. The appearance of
these proceedings so soon after the meeting will greatly enhance
the impact of the symposium on current research in atherosclerosis.
The program committee is particularly indebted to the excellent
response of the inves tigators for their willingness to participate
in the symposium and for their successful efforts in bringing high
quality to their presentations. Their cooperation in the
expeditious delivery of manuscripts for this volume has been
particularly gratifying. The efforts of Ms. Barbara Allen in
preparing this volume bear special note."
