Coronary Physiology and Atherosclerosis
The coronary vasculature has been traditionally divided into three functional groups: large conductance vessels visible on coronary angiography, which offer little resistance to blood flow; small resistance vessels ranging in size from about 250 to 10 μm in diameter; and veins. Although it has been taught that arterioles (precapillary vessels < 50 μm) account for most of the coronary resistance...

Diabetes has threatened our country with its epidemic nature and problems, and India has the dubious distinction of being the “Diabetes Capital of the World”. Today, the medical community unhappily accepts, and the public should advisably be aware, that diabetes is a coronary heart disease risk equivalent.

Serum lipoprotein(a) [Lp(a)] was determined in 85 healthy controls (control group), in 49 patients with cerebrovascular disease (CVD group), and in 87 patients with acute myocardial infarction (AMI group). Lp(a) concentration was measured using a single radial immunodiffusion method. Because Lp(a) showed a skewed distribution, Lp(a) was plotted in each group on a box plot and analyzed using non...

Moore than 17,000 orthotopic heart transplants have been performed, and the results of all centers reporting to the International Registry show a 1-year survival rate of more than 80%. Heart transplantation has become a routine and effective method for the treatment of end-stage heart disease. Acute cellular rejection or infection are the most common causes of death within the first year after ...
متن کاملA study of iron status in patients with coronary atherosclerosis
Background: It has been demonstrated that free oxygen radicals have a close interaction with lipid peroxidation, causing a modification of low-density lipoproteins (LDL) and facilitating LDL deposition, with the consequent formation of atherosclerosis plaques. Free radical production is catalyzed and accelerated in the presence of iron. This study was conducted to evaluate the possible associ...
