44、and Heart Attack Researchers have announced the results of two studies on the health effects of the drug aspirin (阿司匹林 ). One study shows aspirin can sharply reduce the chance that a healthy, older man will suffer a heart attack. The study offered two new results from earlier findings. It said takin

48、men who took aspirin suffered attacks. Ten of them died. 239men who did not take aspirin suffered heart attacks. Twenty-six of them died.

49、sults do not mean every man over the age of fifty should take aspirin. They said aspirin cannot help men who do not eat healthy foods, who smoke cigarettes and who are fat.
