Being sedentary contributes to many CAD risk factors, including high blood pressure,obesity,diabetes, high cholesterol levels, and high triglycerides, a type of fat found in your bloodstream that’s linked to atherosclerosis. When you’re physically fit, your heart works more efficiently. That can ...
Atherosclerosis is the most common cause of heart disease. Ischemia is the lack of sufficient blood so coronary heart disease is sometimes called ischemic heart disease. What Are the Risk Factors for Heart Disease? Multiple risk factors cause coronary heart disease. The most common risk factors ...
Not everyone experiences the same symptoms in the same way. Some people who have atherosclerosis don’t have any symptoms at all until they have a sudden cardiac event such as a heart attack or stroke. What are the risk factors for Coronary Heart Disease? Many factors can increase your risk...
Step-by-Step Solution:1. Understanding Atherosclerosis: Atherosclerosis is a condition characterized by the buildup of fats, cholesterol, and other substances in and on the artery walls. This buildup is often r
Starting as early as childhood, plaque – a combination of cholesterol, fat, and other substances – starts to stick to the walls lining your blood vessels. It builds up over time. That makes arteries harder and narrower, which doctors call “atherosclerosis.“ ...
Moreover, the Atherosclerosis Risk in Communities study [43] found that a high level of physical activity was associated with a lower incidence of dementia and lower decline. However, our results did not change after controlling for overall physical activity, indicating that high levels of walking...
Is coronary atherosclerosis the same as an atheroma? Is hypertension a kind of ischemic heart disease? Is hypertensive heart disease the same as CHF? Is CHD and stable ischemic heart disease the same thing? Is ischemic heart disease genetic? Is coronary artery disease treatable? Is hypertensive ...

TyG index was defined as Ln [fasting triglyceride (mg/dL) × fasting blood glucose (mg/dL)/2]. We used logistic regression and Cox proportional hazards modeling to evaluate the association of TyG index with prevalent EOCAD and incident TLF, respectively. The discriminatory ability of TyG ...
The objective of this work was to study the ability of blood cells and their microparticles to transport monomeric and pentameric forms of C-reactive protein (mCRP and pCRP) in the blood of patients with coronary artery disease (CAD). Blood was obtained from 14 patients with CAD 46 ± 13 ...
