Angina pectoris is a disease marked by brief attacks of chest pain or discomfort caused by deficient oxygenation of the heart muscles, usually due to impaired blood flow to the heart. There are three main types: stable angina precipitated by activity and relieved by rest; unstable angina that worsens over time and can occur at rest; and Prinzmetal's angina caused by spasms of the coronary arteries. Risk factors include modifiable factors like smoking, high cholesterol, and lack of exercise as well as non-modifiable factors like older age, family history, and diabetes. Treatment aims to relieve symptoms, slow disease progression, and prevent future heart attacks through drugs like nitrates for acute attacks and beta block
Angina is chest pain caused by reduced blood flow to the heart muscles. It's not usually life threatening, but it's a warning sign that you could be at risk of a heart attack or stroke. With treatment and healthy lifestyle changes, it's possible to control angina and reduce the risk of these more serious problems.

Angina, also known as angina pectoris, is chest pain or discomfort that occurs when part of your heart muscle does not get enough oxygen-rich blood. It is a common symptom of coronary heart disease, which develops when the arteries of the heart become partially or totally blocked
Angina pectoris occurs when your heart muscle (myocardium) does not get enough blood and oxygen. Not enough blood supply is called ischemia.
Angina can be a symptom of coronary artery disease (CAD). This is when arteries that carry blood to your heart become narrowed and blocked. This can happen because of:
Hardening of arteries (atherosclerosis)
A blood clot
Plaque in an artery that can rupture (unstable plaque)
Poor blood flow through a narrowed heart valve
Lessened pumping of the heart muscle
Coronary artery spasm
There are 2 other forms of angina pectoris. They are:
Microvascular angina. This used to be called Syndrome X. It causes chest pain with no coronary artery blockage. The pain is caused by from poor function of tiny blood vessels that lead to the heart, arms, and legs. It is more common in women.
Variant angina pectoris. This is also called Prinzmetal's angina. It is rare. It occurs almost only at rest, not after exercise or stress. It usually occurs between midnight and 8 a.m. It can be very painful. It is related to spasm of the artery. It is also more common in women.
Angina pectoris is the medical term for chest pain or discomfort due to coronary heart disease. It occurs when the heart muscle doesn't get as much blood as it needs. This usually happens because one or more of the heart's arteries is narrowed or blocked, also called ischemia.
Angina pectoris is a medical condition resulting in chest pain or discomfort. Angina pectoris occurs when the heart is not getting enough blood supply. the pain related to angina is temporary, but if left untreated can make serious heart complications inevitable.
Angina pectoris by student at ahram canadian universityMenna-Allah Ashraf
angina pectoris types , causes and symptoms this presentation is very interactive for medical students studying angina pectoris with its various types ...it's also suitable for raising the awareness of public about angina ....I wish it's useful for you all .
The most common type is an ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI), caused by a complete blockage of a coronary artery. Non-ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (NSTEMI) occurs when the blockage is partial. Another type, called a coronary artery spasm, involves temporary narrowing of the coronary arteries. Advanced Medical Group's best cardiology specialists employ state-of-the-art diagnostic tools like angiograms and stress tests to identify these heart attack types accurately. Timely intervention through medications, angioplasty, or bypass surgery significantly improves outcomes, ensuring patient well-being and recovery.
Angina is a type of chest pain caused by reduced blood flow to the heart. It is a symptom of coronary artery disease. Angina, which may also be called angina pectoris, is often described as squeezing, pressure, heaviness, tightness or pain in your chest. Some people with angina symptoms describe angina as feeling like a vise is squeezing their chest or feeling like a heavy weight has been placed on their chest. Angina may be a new pain that needs evaluation by a doctor, or recurring pain that goes away with treatment

How to Make a Field invisible in Odoo 17Celine George
It is possible to hide or invisible some fields in odoo. Commonly using “invisible” attribute in the field definition to invisible the fields. This slide will show how to make a field invisible in odoo 17.
Operation “Blue Star” is the only event in the history of Independent India where the state went into war with its own people. Even after about 40 years it is not clear if it was culmination of states anger over people of the region, a political game of power or start of dictatorial chapter in the democratic setup.
The people of Punjab felt alienated from main stream due to denial of their just demands during a long democratic struggle since independence. As it happen all over the word, it led to militant struggle with great loss of lives of military, police and civilian personnel. Killing of Indira Gandhi and massacre of innocent Sikhs in Delhi and other India cities was also associated with this movement.
