CRP and the relation with heart disease
Cardiovascular diseases are the leading causes of mortality and morbidity in industrialized and developing countries. Many efforts have been undertaken during the last decades to identify environmental, behavioral and genetic factors modulating the risk of cardiovascular diseases.It will explain the role of CRP - an acute-phase protein- as indicator of potential cardiovascular disease as well as a predictor of the risk for heart disease and future heart attack
Linsuffisance cardiaque aiguë = Acute heart failure
Acute heart failure is one of the oldest described medical conditions. However, although its clinical symptomatology is fairly obvious and known to everyone: dyspnea, liver pain, crackles on auscultation, the epidemiology has only been explored for very recent years. In all of the cardiology and resuscitation books of the past 40 years, acute heart failure has been considered a catch-all ranging from acute simple lung edema in hypertensive crisis to cardiogenic shock following heart attack. myocardium. It was all called "acute heart failure." This book is based on the recent Recommendations of the European Society of Cardiology and the European Society of Intensive Care Medicine which advocate the designation "Acute heart failure syndrome" in which the decompensation of heart failure chronic, hypertensive surge, cardiogenic shock, right heart failure, and high output heart failure are separate entities.
Chlamydia Atherosclerosis Lesion : Discovery, Diagnosis, and Treatment
This book presents current understanding on the specific pathological features of the C. pneumoniae arterial lesion and the unique morphological features and life cycle of C. pneumoniae in atheromatous arteries. It is important for every medical practitioner to be aware of this disease. All internal medicine physicians, intensivists, family medicine practitioners, infectious disease and immunology physicians should be aware of the impact of C. pneumoniae, the specific pathological features, and methods of diagnosing the lesion. This book presents a unique review of this important
Anticoagulants and coronary artery disease
Blood thinners are medicines that help blood flow smoothly through your veins and arteries. There are two. The first is called anticoagulants (Warfarin, Heparin, Enoxaparin) and The second class of blood thinners is called antiplatelet (Aspirin, Ticagrelor , Clopidogrel). . Coronary arteries supply blood to the heart muscle. Coronary artery disorder or disease can have serious implications by reducing the flow of oxygen and nutrients to the heart muscle. This can lead to a heart attack and possibly death. Atherosclerosis. Medications to reduce the risk of blood clots, such as anticoagulants (including aspirin) and antiplatelet. , in particular aspirin, are effective in preventing platelet activation and thus thrombus formation and Clopidogrel is an inhibitor of platelet activation.
