Therapeutic modulation of the natural history of coronary atherosclerosis: lessons learned from serial imaging studies Despite advances in risk prediction, preventive and therapeutic strategies, atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease remains a major public health challenge worldwide, carrying considerable morbidity, mortality and health. Treatment for atherosclerosis is often critical when it affects the arteries leading to your heart, a condition known as coronary artery disease (CAD). Natural History of Diabetic Coronary Atherosclerosis by Quantitative Measurement of Serial Coronary Computed Tomographic Angiography: Results of the PARADIGM Study. Author(s): Kim, Ung. This is because atherosclerosis is the underlying medical problem in most patients with any of the following illnesses: Coronary artery disease — In this chronic (long-lasting) disease, atherosclerosis narrows the coronary arteries, the arteries that supply blood to the heart muscle. This can lead to the chest pain called angina.

Role of endothelial shear stress in the natural history of coronary atherosclerosis and vascular remodeling: molecular, cellular, and vascular behavior. J Am . Atherosclerosis is a disease in which the wall of the artery develops abnormalities, called lesions. These lesions may lead to narrowing due to the buildup of atheromatous plaque. Initially, there are generally no symptoms. When severe, it can result in coronary artery disease, stroke, peripheral artery disease, or kidney problems, depending on which arteries are affected.

Background and Purpose—Knowledge of the natural history of stenoses due to intracranial atherosclerosis may be useful for evaluating possible treatments such as angioplasty.. Methods—We retrospectively reviewed records over a 7-year period to identify patients with intracranial atherosclerotic stenoses and serial tative measurements of stenoses were made in a blinded.

Atherosclerosis can create life-threatening blockages in the arteries of your heart, without you ever feeling a thing.

Fact of Fancy #9: The concept that inﬂammation plays a role in the progression of atherosclerosis is a new idea. Answer #9: Fancy. Discussion: Recent research work has identiﬁed molecular and cel-.

The extent of stress-induced myocardial ischemia is an important determinant of outcome in patients with stable coronary artery disease. The natural history of atherosclerotic lesions was previously investigated with intracoronary imaging, mainly focusing on plaque composition without accounting for the potential impact of mechanical stress exerted on the plaque itself by intracoronary.

Objectives This study aimed to determine the rate and extent of plaque progression (PP), changes in plaque features, and clinical predictors of PP in patients with diabetes mellitus (DM).

Thus. endothelial nuclear shape and orientation e.g., elongated, flow-direction oriented nuclei in segments with stable flow; round, less ordered nuclei in segments with unsteady, turbulent flow and possibly the density of endothelial nuclei depend upon stresses secondary to flow dynamics.Imaging of adverse coronary plaque features has advanced greatly over the past decade and improved our understanding of the highly complex and dynamic nature of coronary atherosclerosis.

Moreover, adverse non-invasive plaque imaging and assessment of the adverse coronary plaque burden is an exciting novel approach for identifying the vulnerable. Stone GW, Maehara A, Lansky AJ, et al, for the PROSPECT Investigators. A prospective natural-history study of coronary atherosclerosis.
