Your heart is a pump that circulates blood to your lungs and the rest of your body. The surface of your heart is covered with blood vessels called coronary arteries, which supply your heart muscle with blood. Coronary heart disease happens when fatty deposits build up on the walls of your...
The structure of the heart and the coronary blood supply of wild mammals, including that of threatened species, are poorly understood. This study set out to describe the heart, aortic arch branching and coronary distribution of Myrmecophaga tridactyla, and to compare it with anatomical descriptions...

Introduction of Heart Diseases 心脏病介绍 1 The heart is like any other muscle, requiring oxygen and nutrient-rich blood for it to function. The coronary arteries that supply blood to the heart muscle spread across the surface of...
supply of oxygen and nutrients to the heart muscle, a heart attack can result. However, atherosclerosis may maintain a stable pattern for several years or even decades if the plaques grow slowly or remain relatively stationary. These patients may not notice worsening of angina during the time of...
8. A coronary stent is a tube placed in the coronary arteries that supply the heart to keep the arteries open to treat coronary heart disease. 9. The study is the first major one to research how the role fitness plays in the development of coronary risk factors in healthy young adults. ...
In some, a substantial part of the coronary blood supply may depend on the RV. This RV-dependent coronary circulation may determine survival after RV decompression (RVD): RVD may cause RV “steal” in the presence of fistulae alone and ischemia, coronary isolation, or myocardial infarcti...
Coronary heart disease (CHD) is a leading cause of death in both men and women in the UK according to the NHS.
Noun1.coronary artery bypass graft- open-heart surgery in which the rib cage is opened and a section of a blood vessel is grafted from the aorta to the coronary artery to bypass the blocked section of the coronary artery and improve the blood supply to the heart ...
