The suicide of Robin Williams comes to mind. He had a history of depression and his health was failing.

IJERPH, Vol. 17, Pages 8590: Impact of Implementing a Dyslipidemia Management Guideline on Cholesterol Control for Secondary Prevention of Ischemic Heart Disease in Primary Care
ez-Pablo Cardiovascular diseases (CVD) are the main cause of death worldwide. The control of CVD risk factors, such as dyslipidemia, reduces their mortality rate.

We undertook a quasi-experimental, uncontrolled, before-and-after study of 1151 patients. T...
