Association between Helicobacter pylori Infection and Atherosclerotic Coronary Artery Disease
Background and Objectives: Cardiovascular disease is the most common cause of death in developed countries. In addition to traditional risk factors for cardiovascular disease, nowadays, accumulating evidence indicates that a variety of infections contribute to pathogenesis of atherosclerosis, (We investigated whether Helicobacter pylori infection is related to Prevalence of coronar...
متن کاملEstrogen modulates responses of atherosclerotic coronary arteries.
Although evidence indicates that estrogen replacement therapy reduces risk of coronary heart disease, the mechanism remains unknown. Among the possibilities are that estrogen replacement therapy may 1) inhibit growth of atherosclerotic plaque and 2) decrease the prevalence of transient myocardial ischemia and myocardial infarction by modulating vasomotion in atherosclerotic coronary arteries. U...
متن کاملAtherosclerotic Lesions in Human Coronary Arteries
To investigate the potential role of fluid mechanical factors in the localized genesis and development of atherosclerotic lesions in humans, the exact anatomic locations of atherosclerotic lesions and the flow patterns at such sites in left and right human coronary arteries were studied in detail by flow visualization and high-speed cinemicrographic techniques using five isolated, transparent h...
متن کاملFibrinolytic activity in human atherosclerotic coronary arteries.
The localization of fibrinolytic areas in normal and atheromatous human coronary arteries was studied by the histochemical fibrin slide technique. Fibrinolytic activity was caused by a plasminogen activator. The activator, occasionally observed at sites in the normal endothelial lining, was abundantly present in relation to vessels in the normal adventitia. The pathological adventitia contained...
متن کاملAdrenergic Receptors in Human Atherosclerotic Coronary Arteries
Background—Adrenergic regulation of coronary vasomotion is balanced between 1-adrenergic–mediated ( 1-AR) constriction and 2-adrenergic–mediated ( 2-AR) relaxation. This study aimed at assessing the role of 2-ARs in normal, mildly atherosclerotic, and stenotic human coronary arteries. Methods and Results—During intracoronary (IC) infusion of increasing doses of the 2-AR agonist salbutamol (0.15...
