Abstract

In addition to a disruption of yellow plaque, vasospasm may also play a role in thrombotic occlusions of coronary arteries in small cases of infarction. Macroscopic vascular injury and thrombus seemed to be unnecessary for vasospasm culminating in myocardial infarction.

Cardiovascular Diseases: Risk Factors

Cardiovascular disease is a significant health concern. Risk factors include hypertension, obesity, dyslipidemia and smoking. Women who are postmenopausal are at an increased risk of heart disease. Here is the latest research for risk factors of cardiovascular disease.

Blood Clotting Disorders

Thrombophilia includes conditions with increased tendency for excessive blood clotting. Blood clotting occurs when the body has insufficient amounts of specialized proteins that make blood clot and stop bleeding. Here is the latest research on blood clotting disorders.
