A prospective study of persons older than 70 years provided evidence to contest the association between blood cholesterol level and incidence of CHD or death due to CHD. Drug treatment for mild to moderate hypertension substantially reduced morbidity and mortality from stroke and from CHD.

Fritz Verzár was born 120 years ago: a personal account.

Fritz Verzár, founder and one of the most important operator of experimental gerontology, was born 120 years ago at Budapest (Hungary) and passed away in 1979 at Basel (Switzerland) at the age of 93. This short paper, as well as the following one in this issue by Robert [Robert, L., 2006. Fritz Verzár was born 120 years ago: his contribution to experimental gerontology through the collagen research as assessed after half a century. Arch. Gerontol. Geriatr. 43, 13-43], intends to commemorate his human and scientific merits, which remained valid even after long decades after his death. The author of this paper was the last Hungarian pupil of Verzár; therefore, a personal touch of this commemoration could not be avoided and was not even wanted. Verzár was an exceptionally clever and realistic scientist and at the same time, a warm-hearted and honest man, who is remembered with deep respect and love.
