Coronary artery disease (CAD) and ischemic heart (IHD) are often indistinctly used terms. Both combined have generated, over the past years, concerns about sex disparities in their presentation. From an epidemiological perspective, females several disadvantages regarding prevention, diagnosis, treatment of CAD. Most general cardiovascular risk factors affect women more frequently, or with a higher morbidity mortality association. Besides, atypical manifestations uncommon forms CAD represent...
The diagnosis and management of vulnerable plaques are topics high interest in the cardiovascular field. Although imaging techniques like computed tomography angiography (MCTA) ultrasonography (USG) can structurally evaluate atherosclerotic plaques, they limited examining internal cellular processes. Positron emission (PET) molecular imaging, on other hand, highlight these processes, including inflammation, angiogenesis, lipid oxidation. Magnetic resonance (MRI) is also a valuable...
Kommerell diverticulums are an uncommon congenital vascular disease involving aberrant origin of the right or left subclavian artery and a dilation its root. Here, we present case 44-year-old woman with relapse surgically repaired diverticulum.
Microvascular angina refers to chest pain associated with coronary microvascular dysfunction (CMD).A new paradigm in cardiology was entrenched when the WISE studies demonstrated that may be present patients non-obstructive artery disease (NOCAD).Statistically, there is a higher number of cases women.The prevalence NOCAD has been perceived recent years reaching up 20-30% all CAD.60% symptoms not any sign obstructive (OCAD).In 2015, COVADIS group established diagnostic criteria for...
Heart diseases are the main cause of mortality in Mexico, being coronary heart disease most frequent country. Its high prevalence makes important study pathophysiology and search for prognostic factors. Different genes polymorphisms promote atherogenesis artery disease, they affect inflammatory vascular pathological processes. Interferon regulatory factor 5 (IRF5) is associated with it promotes chronic inflammation cytokines release; could trigger immune reactions its activating receptors...
