data for use, side effects, and drug interactions. Covers key
topics such as new ESC and NLA guidelines, advances in
lipid-lowering therapy, new diabetes drugs that improve
cardiovascular outcomes, obesity drugs and cardiovascular and
metabolic effects, drugs targeting inflammation, and combinations
of antithrombotic therapies with analysis of risk-benefit. Provides

mechanisms of action and other drug processes-many updated to
reflect current pathologic understanding of mechanisms. Enhanced
