CLINICOPATHOLOGIC CORRELATIONS Coronary Atherosclerosis in Subjects with Mitral Stenosis
نویسنده
چکیده
The coronary arteries were examined in 60 specimens from patients with mitral stenosis. In three, localized obstruction was nonatherosclerotic in nature (in one, arterial dysplasia; in two, embolic). In 18 of the remaining 57 cases (31.5%), significantly obstructive atherosclerosis in one or more segments of the coronary arterial system was found. This represented 46% of the males and 27% of the females.

ABSTRACT Free radicals and lipid peroxidation have been proposed to play a role in the pathogenesis of atherosclerosis. Reactive Oxygen species can induce the oxidation of low-density lipoproteins and LDL oxidation has been shown to be responsible for plaque formation in the vessel wall. However living cells and organisms are very well equipped with defense systems against the damaging...

Background and Aim: Many studies have shown a positive relationship between inflammatory factors and coronary artery disease (CAD). It has been proved that the total white blood cell count is an independent risk factor for CAD.A few studies have revealed the relationship between differential white blood cell count and CAD. The aim of this study was to investigate the correlations between corona...
متن کاملCorrelations between measures of atherosclerosis change using carotid ultrasonography and coronary angiography.
Few studies have examined the correlation between change in carotid artery intima-media thickness (IMT) and change in coronary artery disease. In the Cholesterol Lowering Atherosclerosis Study, current nonsmoking men with coronary artery disease were randomized to colestipol-niacin or placebo. Among 133 subjects with baseline and on-trial coronary angiography and carotid ultrasonography, colest...
