A prospective study of autopsy-determined measures of atherosclerosis In aortas and coronary and cerebral arteries was completed for a group of 83 men who were free of clinical cardiovascular disease and cancer when they entered the Cooperative Lipoproteln Phenotyplng Study In 1970. Total cholesterol minus high density llpoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C) was significantly associated with measures o...

The focus is how the role of cytokines in atherosclerosis as a chronic inflammatory disease, it known that regulate complex responses atherosclerotic plaques, especially IL-1β. Sambiloto (Andrographis paniculata) plant with various pharmacological activities. Andrographolide (AND) main bioactive compound diterpene lactone group. This literature study aims to assess potential AND on proinflammat...

Cardiovascular disease and cancer remain the leading causes of hospitalization death worldwide. Prostate (PC) is one most common malignant diseases in men. Epidemiological studies have shown that majority patients with PC die not from but cardiovascular diseases, particularly coronary heart disease. In recent years, several examined relationship between atherosclerosis PC, suggesting a stronger...

The most common localizations for upper extremity atherosclerosis are the subclavian artery and brachiocephalic trunk. Significant stenosis of occurs in 2% population 7-11% patients with manifest cardiovascular disease. Revascularization is indicated symptomatic or asymptomatic coronary disease planned surgical revascularization. In addition to atherosclerosis, other causes appearance include d...

Abnormalities of the vascular endothelium contribute to all stages of atherosclerosis from lesion development to clinical cardiovascular disease events. Recognized risk factors, including diabetes mellitus, hypertension, dyslipidemia, cigarette smoking, and sedentary lifestyle are associated with endothelial dysfunction. A variety of pharmacological and behavioral interventions have been shown ...

Although for most children the process of atherosclerosis is subclinical, dramatically accelerated atherosclerosis occurs in some pediatric disease states, with clinical coronary events occurring in childhood and very early adult life. As with most scientific statements about children and the future risk for cardiovascular disease, there are no randomized trials documenting the effects of risk ...

Cardiovascular disease, resulting from atherosclerosis, is a leading cause of global morbidity and mortality. Genetic predisposition and classical environmental risk factors explain much of the attributable risk for cardiovascular events in populations, but other risk factors for the development and progression of atherosclerosis, which can be identified and modified, may be important therapeut...

Abstract Cardiovascular disease remains the leading cause of death worldwide. In spite cardiovascular prevention, there is residual risk not explicable by traditional factors. Metal contamination even at levels previously considered safe in humans may be a potential factor for atherosclerosis. This review examines evidence that 2 metals, lead, and cadmium, demonstrate sufficient toxicological e...

Atherosclerosis is a focal disease of the arterial wall that leads to cardiovascular disease (CVD), the biggest cause of morbidity and mortality in Western societies. CVD, a group of disorders of the heart and the vasculature, includes atherosclerosis, high blood pressure, coronary heart disease, congestive heart failure, stroke and congenital heart defects. The World Health Organization report...
