Lean and Obese Coronary Perivascular Adipose Tissue Impairs Vasodilation via Differential Inhibition of Vascular Smooth Muscle K+ Channels [PDF]
, 2015 OBJECTIVE: The effects of coronary perivascular adipose tissue (PVAT) on vasomotor tone are influenced by an obese phenotype and are distinct from other adipose tissue depots. The purpose of this investigation was to examine the effects of lean and obese

Journal of the American College of Cardiology, 2009 ![Figure][1] As part of the workup for pulmonary hypertension, a 59-year-old man underwent coronary angiography. This demonstrated a single coronary artery arising from the right sinus of valsalva, which gave off 3 branches that supplied the entire left ventricle.

Plaque in superficial femoral arteries indicates generalized atherosclerosis and vulnerability to coronary death: An autopsy study [PDF]
, 2008 ObjectivesRisk factors for atherosclerosis have limited ability to identify persons at high risk of coronary heart disease. Assessment of subclinical atherosclerosis in peripheral arteries might improve this limitation.

Journal of Cardiac Surgery, 1980 Coronary artery spasm is a transient reduction in lumen diameter of an epicardial coronary artery of sufficient degree to produce objective evidence of myocardial ischemia in the absence of any significant increase in heart rate or blood pressure. In this article are summarized pathophysiological observations, the coronary angiographic anatomy of ...

Diagnosis and Management of Anomalous Coronary Arteries with a Malignant Course
Interventional Cardiology: Reviews, Research, Resources, 2019 Although the prevalence of anomalous coronary artery from the opposite sinus (ACAOS) in the general population is low, more frequent use of invasive and non-invasive imaging to rule out coronary artery disease has seen an increase in absolute numbers of ...
