As such, robotic-assisted minimally invasive direct coronary artery bypass (MIDCAB) enables coronary revascularization through robotic harvesting of the left internal mammary artery (LIMA), followed ...

Coronary artery calcium (CAC) is an excellent predictor of atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease (ASCVD) risk. Limited data exist on the age at which CAC transitions to nonzero among young adults. We ...

Women with chronic coronary disease have more frequent angina and worse health status than men, despite having less coronary artery disease (CAD). We examined whether perceived stress and depressive ...

Traumatic coronary dissection can be induced by the guide catheter, wire manipulation, equipment in the coronary artery (imaging probes, ‘mother-and-child catheters’) or excessive balloon and stent ...

Coronary artery disease, CAD, is a condition where the arteries that supply blood to the heart muscle become clogged and narrow, making it difficult for blood and oxygen to reach the muscles of ...

What is an ACA in a child? An anomalous coronary artery (ACA) is a heart defect. This is something your baby is born with (congenital). In ACA, the blood vessels that supply blood to your child’s ...

The aim of this study is to describe the literature on the relationship between motor-cognitive DTT and cognitive performance (CP) in individuals with coronary artery disease (CAD) and/or heart ...

Acute coronary syndromes are sudden episodes of reduced or no blood flow and therefore oxygen delivery to part of the heart, usually as a result of narrowing or blockage of an artery.

Coronary artery disease (CAD), or the narrowing of the coronary arteries, is the leading cause of morbidity and mortality throughout the world. Atherosclerosis, or the buildup of plaque in the ...

Around 40% of all patients undergoing angiography are found to have normal coronary arteries or non-obstructive coronary artery disease (NOCAD). Despite the high prevalence, this is a group who rarely ...

When PAD is diagnosed, it often means that coronary artery disease (CAD) also is present. The American College of Cardiology reports that some 42% of people living with CAD also have PAD. While mild ...

But once the plaque gets big enough, the artery can become so narrow that not enough oxygen-rich blood can get through. This can cause pain or discomfort, especially during exercise. Coronary heart ...
