Coronary angiographic morphology in myocardial infarction: A link between the pathogenesis of unstable angina and myocardial infarction [PDF]
It has previously been shown that analysis of coronary morphology can separate unstable from stable angina. An eccentric stenosis with a narrow neck or irregular borders, or both, is very common in patients who present with acute unstable angina, whereas

Progression of Coronary Artery Disease (CAD) from Stable Angina (SA) Towards Myocardial Infarction (MI): Role of Oxidative Stress [PDF]
Introduction: There is now a consensus that atherosclerosis represents a state of heightened oxidative stress which is characterized by lipid and protein oxidation in the vascular wall.

SELL and GUCY1A1 Gene Polymorphisms in Patients with Unstable Angina
Acute ischaemia is mostly caused by the rupture of an unstable atherosclerotic plaque in a coronary artery, resulting in platelet accumulation and thrombus formation, which closes the lumen of the coronary vessel.

Unstable Angina: A Classification [PDF]
The establishment of a prognosis and the approach to the treatment of many diseases is aided greatly by a logical classification. For example, classification of a wide variety of neoplasms by anatomic extent, microscopic appearance, and the presence of special markers now forms the basis for selecting appropriate therapy.

Persistent and selective upregulation of renin-angiotensin system in circulating T lymphocytes in unstable angina. [PDF]
Introduction: Unstable angina is associated with an acute systemic inflammatory reaction and circulating T lymphocytes are activated. We investigated whether in unstable angina with marked immune system activation a selective upregulation of the ...
