The protocols offer a more accurate way to detect atherosclerosis and assess cardiovascular risk before symptoms appear, ...

A drug candidate, previously successful at treating severe fatty liver disease, reduces atherosclerosis—a primary driver of ...

A drug candidate, previously successful at treating severe fatty liver disease, reduces atherosclerosis - a primary driver of cardiovascular death worldwide - in large mammals, a study suggests.

It is a serious condition because if the aorta ruptures at that spot, it can lead to life-threatening severe internal bleeding and other serious complications. Aortic atherosclerosis: This occurs when ...

Objective Examine if two inexpensive measures of atherosclerotic vascular diseases (ASVD), abdominal aortic calcification (AAC) and high-sensitivity cardiac troponin I (hs-cTnI) provide complementary ...

Aortic atherosclerosis: This occurs when plaque (made up of substances like cholesterol and calcium) collects and hardens inside the aorta blocking the free flow of blood through it and weakening ...

In the control group, there were no atherosclerotic lesions and no macrophages in the aortic wall. The combination of an atherogenic diet and balloon denudation of the aorta induced significant ...

Abdominal aortic calcification is one of the earliest indicators of atherosclerotic calcification and is vital in predicting ...

A CLINICAL picture of either acute or chronic renal failure may occur when atheromatous material, dislodged from a severely atherosclerotic aorta, obstructs small renal arteries. Only a small ...

Main outcome measures: Detection of the presence of atherosclerosis-like lesions and mineralisation in aortic valves, and morphometrical measurement of the size of lesions. Conclusions: ...
