atherosclerosis
Lipoproteins are complexes of lipids and proteins that transport lipids through the bloodstream. They consist of a neutral lipid core surrounded by a phospholipid coat containing apoproteins and cholesterol. The main types of lipoproteins are chylomicrons, VLDL, LDL, HDL, and free fatty acids. Atherosclerosis is characterized by thickening and hardening of the arteries due to lipid accumulation in the arterial wall, which can lead to blockages. Risk factors for atherosclerosis and coronary heart disease include high blood cholesterol levels, diabetes, family history, hypertension, and smoking. Levels of LDL, HDL, and lipoprotein(a) provide information about cardiovascular disease risk.
Atherosclerosis
Atherosclerosis is characterized by plaques that form within arteries and can rupture, causing blockages. It is caused by risk factors like hyperlipidemia, hypertension, smoking, and diabetes that lead to endothelial injury and inflammation. Over time, lesions containing macrophages, smooth muscle cells, and lipids develop and can restrict blood flow or rupture. This disrupts blood vessels and causes complications like heart attack and stroke. The document discusses the pathogenesis of atherosclerosis in detail.
Atherosclerosis
Atherosclerosis is the hardening and thickening of arteries due to plaque buildup within the arterial wall. It is caused by an inflammatory response to injury and risk factors such as high cholesterol, hypertension, smoking, and diabetes. The pathogenesis involves monocytes migrating into the damaged artery and oxidized LDL cholesterol building up in macrophages to form foam cells, which accumulate to create fatty streaks and fibrous plaques that can restrict blood flow. Diagnosis relies on physical exams, imaging tests, and blood tests. Treatment focuses on modifying risk factors through lifestyle changes and medications to lower cholesterol and blood pressure. Current research is exploring new biomarkers for detection and treatments to improve vascular function and reduce cardiovascular events.
atherosclerosis
The document discusses atherosclerosis, which is a disease characterized by endothelial dysfunction, vascular inflammation, and the buildup of lipids and other materials within the inner layer of arterial walls. This buildup forms atherosclerotic plaques that protrude into the arterial lumen. Major risk factors for atherosclerosis include increasing age, male gender, family history, genetic abnormalities, hyperlipidemia, hypertension, cigarette smoking, and diabetes. The consequences of atherosclerosis include heart attacks, strokes, aortic aneurysms, and peripheral vascular disease. Prevention involves lifestyle changes while treatment focuses on controlling risk factors and surgical interventions if needed.

The major risk factors for atherosclerosis are age, male sex, smoking, high blood pressure, and high cholesterol. The buildup of deposits in arteries can reduce blood flow and lead to complications like heart attack or stroke. Treatment focuses on lifestyle changes like a healthy diet and exercise, along with cholesterol-lowering medications as needed.
polycythemia by waheed
This document discusses polycythemia, a disease characterized by an increased number of red blood cells. It describes three main types of polycythemia: absolute polycythemia, which is caused by overproduction of red blood cells in the bone marrow; primary polycythemia, where the levels of white blood cells and platelets are also increased; and relative polycythemia, which results from a decreased blood plasma volume. The document lists potential causes, symptoms, diagnostic tests and treatments to lower the number of red blood cells in cases of polycythemia.
Circulation 2014-melamed-e334-6
- Myocardial infarction is caused by the sudden blockage of arteries that supply the heart muscle, usually due to atherosclerosis where plaque builds up in the artery walls over time.
- Inflammation plays a key role in weakening the fibrous cap of plaque and increasing the risk of cap rupture, which can lead to complete blockage and a heart attack.
- Lifestyle factors like smoking, obesity, and diabetes can increase inflammation and thus heart attack risk, so reducing or eliminating these risk factors may help lower inflammation.

Cvs as-csbrp
Atherosclerosis is a disease involving the hardening and narrowing of arteries from plaque buildup within the arterial wall. The document discusses the pathogenesis of atherosclerosis, which begins with endothelial injury from factors like smoking, inflammation, and hypercholesterolemia. This allows lipids like LDL to accumulate in the arterial intima, where they become oxidized and trigger an inflammatory response involving immune cells and cytokines. Over time, smooth muscle cells and macrophages are recruited, leading to the formation of atherosclerotic plaques containing lipids and cells that narrow the arteries. The document also covers risk factors, clinical implications like heart attacks, and theories of the disease process.
Polycythemia: Causes, symptoms, diagnosis and treatment
Polycythemia is a rare bone marrow disorder, which causes the increase in the production of cells in the blood, mainly red blood cells. The primary function of the red blood cells is to carry oxygen to the different parts of the body.
Polycythemia slide
Due to factors such as genetics, smoking, and living at high altitudes, polycythemia causes an increased number of red blood cells which leads to elevated levels of hemoglobin, hematocrit, and red blood cell count. Symptoms include headache, dizziness, and skin itching. Diagnosis involves blood tests and bone marrow tests. Treatment includes phlebotomy to reduce blood volume, medications to decrease blood cell production, and lifestyle changes like exercise and avoiding tobacco. Nursing care focuses on monitoring for blood clots, administering treatments, providing education, and addressing pain and nutrition needs.
Polycythemia by Dr. Sookun Rajeev Kumar
This document discusses polycythemia, a blood disorder characterized by the overproduction of red blood cells. It defines polycythemia and classifies it as either relative, absolute primary, or absolute secondary. Primary polycythemia, also called polycythemia vera, is caused by a mutation in the JAK2 gene that results in excessive blood cell production. Signs and symptoms include headache, dizziness, itching and red skin. Treatment focuses on phlebotomy to reduce red blood cell counts as well as medications to suppress bone marrow activity.

Atherosclerosis
Atherosclerosis is a disease where plaque builds up inside arteries. It is the leading cause of heart attacks and strokes. The plaque is made up of fat, cholesterol, calcium and other substances found in the blood. Over time, the plaque hardens and narrows the arteries, limiting blood flow. The major risk factors for atherosclerosis are high blood pressure, high cholesterol, smoking, and diabetes. The disease process involves injury to the artery lining, invasion by immune cells, proliferation of smooth muscle cells, and accumulation of cholesterol and other fats that form plaque lesions within the artery wall. Complications arise when plaque ruptures, forms clots, or restricts blood flow, potentially leading to heart attack, stroke or other
Mmc1
This document summarizes the pathology of atherosclerosis and plaque development. It discusses how plaque accumulates within arteries over decades from early adulthood. Plaque is made up of cholesterol-rich lipids that cause inflammation. While most plaques are asymptomatic, some advanced plaques can rupture and cause heart attacks or strokes. Lipid-lowering treatment can change the composition of plaques within months and provide long-lasting clinical benefits for over 10 years after treatment ends by altering the arteries.
Anaemia
Anaemia is a condition where the blood has a lower than normal amount of red blood cells or haemoglobin. It can be caused by blood loss, iron deficiency, kidney disease, poor nutrition, medications, or alcohol use. Symptoms include paleness, fatigue, dizziness, and increased heart rate. Treatment depends on the underlying cause but may include oral iron supplements, intravenous iron, or blood transfusions for severe anaemia.
