TL;DR: The EUROASPIRE III stroke-specific module shows that secondary prevention and risk factor control in patients after ischaemic stroke need to be improved in four European centres at the time of the study since about half of patients are not achieving risk factor targets defined in European guidelines.

A population study of the influence of beer consumption on folate and homocysteine concentrations.
TL;DR: Moderate beer consumption may help to maintain the tHcy levels in the normal range due to high folate content, and Folate from beer may contribute to the protective effect of alcohol consumption on cardiovascular disease in population with generally low folate intake from other nutrients.

Effect of variations in plasma magnesium concentration on resistance to insulin-mediated glucose disposal in nondiabetic subjects.
TL;DR: A low Mg concentration in nondiabetic subjects was associated with relative insulin resistance, glucose intolerance, and hyperinsulinemia, and there were significant inverse correlations between Mg concentrations and glucose and insulin.

educational level and risk profile of cardiac patients in the EUROASPIRE II substudy
TL;DR: Patients with higher education had lower global coronary risk, than those with lower education, and particular strategies for risk communication and counselling are needed for those withLower education status.
