Ischemia refers to the condition in which the muscles of the heart do not get an adequate supply of oxygen. This mostly happens because of reduced blood flow to the cardiac muscles either due to complete blockages or due to a partial block in the blood vessels that carry blood. This condit...
Brain:This can cause astroke. Legs:Doctors call this “critical limb ischemia.” It’s a severe condition you can get withperipheral artery disease(PAD). That’s a condition where you have plaque build-up in the arteries of your leg. It causes intensepain, even when you’re resting. If...
How can a stroke cause aphasia? What is acute myocardial ischemia? Why does ischemic heart disease lead to dilated cardiomyopathy? What is a cerebrovascular accident (stroke)? Explain what happens to brain cells and the consequences of the event. What causes coronary artery calcification? What type...
Ischemia can be developed in any part of the body, affecting any tissue. Ischemia can cause heart attacks andstroke, especially in cardiac ischemia or lack of blood flow to the heart. In very rare cases, ischemia can affect the intestines causing pain in the abdomen, blood in stools and al...
Myocardial ischemia or myocardial infarction can damage the heart, reducing the heart’s pumping function and causing fatal cardiac arrhythmias. If the coronary artery is completely blocked, it will cause a heart attack. This is viewed as the leading cause of death in patients with cardiovascular ...
It can reveal several different heart problems, including ischemia, heart attacks, rhythm disorders, long-standing strain on the heart from high blood pressure, and certain valve problems. It gives clues as to the underlying cause of cardiac symptoms. The test takes just a few minutes. You lie...
A leading hypothesis is that NDEs are caused by a lack of oxygen (hypoxia) or blood flow (ischemia) to the brain, which can trigger hallucinations and out-of-body experiences. The spike in brain activity, seen in the aforementioned studies, may also play a role in these vivi...
Do not drink alcohol.Alcohol can cause more stomach damage. Alcohol also increases the risk for stomach cancer. When should I seek immediate care? You have bloody bowel movements, bloody vomit, or vomit that looks like coffee grounds.
Faculty Group Practice - 1 -Ischemia means a "reduced blood supply". Ischemic Vascular Disease (IVD) is where a waxy substance called plaque (plak) builds up inside blood vessels, and restricts the normal flow of blood. When plaque builds up in the arteries, the condition is called (ATH-...
function. It is a typical representative of phthalide compounds. It is mostly found in Umbelliferae plants such as Chinese angelica angelica and Chuanxiong. It has anti-atherosclerotic effects, anti-inflammatory and analgesic effects, anti-Alzheimer's effects, and the treatment of cerebral ischemia-...
