[Yoshihiro Murakami]

Dear Fireweed

There are many articles, which pointed out the risk of cardiovascular
trouble of anti-inflammatory drugs.

I have filed the most reliable article in my site.

This article is a meta-analysis of 31 large scale randomized
controlled trial.  Little evidence of drugs exists. Naproxen seemed
least harmful.
