Alzheimer's disease is a neurological disease that causes cognitive regression by causing widespread damage to the neurons and neuronal connections in the brain. Alzheimer's disease begins with the loss of neuronal connections in areas of the brain involved with memory and continues to progressivel...
It is hidden with the main cause of type 2 which is presumably a bacteria/yeast/microbe that infects rotten red meat (given how much an old ham sandwich will put up the blood sugar of a diabetic - compared with an old turkey sandwich). Whatever the microbe is, it is very prevalent in...
Usually, high cholesterol does not produce any symptoms and you may not know your blood cholesterol is too high. Too much cholesterol can build up in your arteries, causing atherosclerosis, or hardening of the arteries. This restricts blood flow through the arteries and can lead to serious medic...
The narrowing of blood vessels and arteries is caused byPeripheral artery diseaseand may hinder the circulation of blood. It mostly affects the legs resulting in poor blood circulation around that area. With this condition, you may also suffer fromatherosclerosiswhich is the build-up of plaque in...
Single-cell transcriptome revealed that Fibroblast-like VSMCs are present in atherosclerosis plaque [23], AA in MFS [33], and normal AA [34]. Nevertheless, the markers used to mark fibroblast-like VSMCs and mesenchymal-like VSMCs in single cell sequencing overlapped, creating confusion over ...
One of the major contributors to arterial thrombosis is atherosclerosis. In addition to contributing to altered blood flow, atherosclerotic plaques are associated with vascular dysfunction and chronic inflammatory signaling, which leads to chronic platelet activation.28-30 Furthermore, the inflammatory state...
A patient with atherosclerosis has plaque buildup in his coronary arteries that reduce their radius by 15%. How much does this reduce the blood flow in the arteries? What is one way that his body might be able to restore the flow rate?
In this article, we'll discuss the importance of nutrition, how protein and fat fit into the picture, how to reduce fat and more. You'll learn about vitamin and mineral supplements, special needs diets and how important drinking water is. We'll cover: The Importance of Water Water is ess...
Angiotensin II is formed from angiotensin I in the blood by the enzyme angiotensin converting enzyme (ACE). (Angiotensin I in the blood is itself formed from angiotensinogen, a protein produced by theliverand released into the blood.)
Bacteria from periodontal diseases could enter your bloodstream from the head to the arteries in your heart. When that happens, you may have atherosclerosis or the hardening of the arteries’ inner walls. Consequently, the plaques formed in your arteries could impede blood flow to your heart and...
