If high blood pressure is not treated, the accumulated pressure on the walls of the arteries can make them more vulnerable. This is called arteriosclerosis, when the arteries become narrowed and promote the accumulation of plaque. Coronary artery disease occurs when the arteries that supply blood ...
Arteriosclerosis is the condition of the arterial walls where there is a development of thickness and hardening and atherosclerosis is a type of this condition where there is significant plaque buildup. Learn about arteriosclerosis and atherosclerosis, the causes of these conditions, the risk factors...

When you regularly pursue an aerobic form of exercise, you help to protect your cardiovascular system from arteriosclerosis (which is otherwise inevitable) and you increase your metabolic rate, which helps protect against fat - a precursor to many degenerative diseases. Exercise also protects you ...
High blood pressure can damage the blood vessels, leading to arteriosclerosis. In the retina, it can result inretinopathy(damaged retina) and cause: Bleeding in the eye Blurred vision Vision loss If diabetes is also present, the risk of hypertensive retinopathy is even higher. ...

[38]. High calcium and high homocysteine could promote arteriosclerosis by up-regulating BMP2, OC, and down-regulating of OPN. This may be the reason why AS plaques are prone to calcification [39]. Additionally, high homoarginine reinforces VSMCs osteogenic transition and vascular calcification ...
the diagnosis of hypertensive nephropathy (5) were as follows: i) primary hypertension; ii) >5 years of sustained hypertension before proteinuria; iii) persistent proteinuria (generally mild to moderate) withless visible components detected by microscopic examination; iv) retinal arteriosclerosis or .....
Complications from diabetescan causearteriosclerosis(hardening of the arteries) which can lead to lowered blood flow to the brain, causing vertigo symptoms. Changes in hormones duringpregnancyalong withlow blood sugarlevels can causepregnantwomen to feel dizziness or vertigo, especially during the first ...
How does the blood and heart work with other systems to maintain homeostasis and predict possible conditions that would occur if it does not happen? If systemic blood pressure started to rise, what adjustments could you make to the afferent and/or efferent arterioles of the glomerulus to...
