concept of atherosclerosis velocity: is it a better measure of cardiovascular risk?

چکیده
in most cases atherosclerosis is the underlying cause of vascular diseases, including heart disease and stroke. it is believed that endothelial injury is the earliest change in the artery wall and that this precedes the formation of lesions of atherosclerosis. recent developments in the field of atherosclerosis have led to a renewed interest in the recognition of the parameter of time in the atherosclerosis process. we believe that the factors determining the time-dependent rate of atherosclerosis progression are important, and it is in this context that we wish to propose for the first time the term “atherosclerosis velocity”. in this review article, we summarize the existing evidence regarding atherosclerosis velocity and discuss the importance of this issue.

We apply our framework in three case-studies, one from communication science, on DBPedia, and one in the legal domain. We des...
