NHMRC Centre of Research Excellence for Better Outcomes in Coronary Artery Disease

每10分钟就有一名澳大利亚人心脏病发作，其中许多人没有任何事先警告。除了传统的危险因素外，是什么导致了动脉粥样硬化，以及在没有危险因素的情况下如何管理心脏病发作的患者，目前还不是很清楚。这一CRE将建立新的生物标记物和临床路径，用于检测亚临床动脉粥样硬化以及二级预防策略，同时培养未来心血管研究的领导者。

One Australian suffers a heart attack every 10 min, many without any prior warning. What contributes to atherosclerosis beyond traditional risk factors, and how to manage patients that suffer a heart attack despite no risk factors is not well known. This CRE will establish new biomarkers and clinical pathways for detection of subclinical atherosclerosis as well as secondary prevention strategies whilst fostering the cardiovascular research leaders of the future.
