Coronary heart disease, disease characterized by an inadequate supply of oxygen-rich blood to the heart muscle (myocardium) because of narrowing or blocking of a coronary artery by fatty plaques (see atherosclerosis). If the oxygen depletion is extreme,
Small changes each day can add up to a much healthier life and decreased risk of developing coronary heart disease. Even losing 10% of excess body weight can dramatically lower heart disease risk. Taking walk breaks at work, scheduling appointments for exercise, exercising with a friend or famil...

To analyse the risk factors of coronary heart disease (CHD), we apply the Bayesian model averaging approach that formalizes the model selection process and deals with model uncertainty in a discrete-time survival model to the data from the Framingham Heart Study. We also use the Alternating ...
The prevalence of coronary heart disease (CHD) risk factors in law enforcement personnel compared to that in the general population was studied by determining the predicted 10-year risk for developing CHD (CHD10, expressed as %) in subjects from the Iowa Department of Public Safety and comparing...
