AB Key  Clinical  Updates  in  Chest  PainOne  trial  of  patients  hospitalized  with  mild  hemoptysis  compared  tranexamic  acid  with  saline  placebo;  within  5  days  of  hospital  admission,  hemoptysis  resolved  in  more  patients  treated  with  tranexamic  acid  than  in  those  receiving  a  saline  placebo.In  African-American  patients  with  average  cardiovascular  risk,  HEART  score  is  a  better  predictive  tool  for  6-week  major  adverse  cardiac  events  when  compared  to  TIMI  score.In  the  PROMISE  trial,  women  had  higher  rates  of  normal  noninvasive  testing  compared  with  men,  but  those  women  with  abnormalities  were  less  likely  to  be  referred  for  catheterization  or  to  receive  statin  therapy.
