BOSTON, March 6 (UPI) -- People who lash out with angry outbursts appear to be at increased risk of heart attack or stroke, especially within 2 hours of outburst, U.S. researchers say.
Lead author Elizabeth Mostofsky, an instructor in the Department of Epidemiology at the Harvard School of Public Health, Dr. Murray Mittleman, also of the Harvard School of Public Health, and colleagues at the Beth Israel Deaconess Medical Center and New York-Presbyterian Hospital said those with cardiovascular disease are at particular risk.
