Résumé : | [BDSP. Notice produite par INIST-CNRS H9R0x99m. Diffusion soumise à autorisation].

Our analysis of 1999-2000 and 2003-2004 National Health and Nutrition Surveys (NHANES) shows that HRT use decreased 19% (from 27.6 to 8.4% ; P<. among women with cvd versus to p="68)" low-risk suggesting that most of the drop in hrt use may be prescribed as an unproven treatment prevent cvd.> |
