Primary Care: Clinics in Office Practice, 2013
Coronary artery disease (CAD) is the leading cause of death worldwide. There are several presenting clinical syndromes, including sudden cardiac death. Risk factor analysis can help the primary care provider identify patients who may need more extensive evaluation or treatment.

Coronary Artery Disease and Coronary Artery Bypass Grafting in Behcet's Disease
Journal of Cardiac Surgery, 2005There is a high frequency of pseudoaneurysm formation in patients with Behçet's disease and their inflammed and fragile tissues are difficult to manipulate. Five patients with Behçet's disease were referred to our cardiovascular surgery department for coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG).

Journal of the American Medical Association, 1952
In this article I will use the terms "coronary artery disease," "angina pectoris," "coronary insufficiency," and "heart pain" interchangeably and synonymously. Angina pectoris can be manifested by almost any kind of pain and results from a disproportion between the oxygen demand and the oxygen supply of the myocardium.

Antithrombins and Coronary Artery Disease
American Journal of Clinical Pathology, 1981The naturally occurring antithrombins, primarily anti- thrombin-III, are key modulators of coagulation and appear to protect against increased fibrin deposition. The role of antithrombin-III with respect to atherogenesis and myocardial infarction remains unclear; however, it has been reported that antithrombin-III levels are decreased in many ...

SCREENING FOR CORONARY ARTERY DISEASE
Medical Clinics of North America, 1999Unidentified coronary artery disease remains a significant cause of premature death and morbidity during the prime of life. The availability of effective interventions for the management of ischemia has provoked new interest in screening for this condition in asymptomatic patients, in the hope of reducing the burden of this condition.

Coronary artery calcium, coronary artery disease, and diabetes
Diabetes Research and Clinical Practice, 2001Diabetes is a known risk factor for cardiovascular disease, which is the leading cause of death in the US. Most sufferers are unaware that they have coronary artery disease, and death is often quite sudden. Electron beam computed tomography (EBCT) is a non-invasive procedure that detects coronary artery disease (CAD) by measuring the amount of coronary

Pathophysiology of Coronary Artery Disease
Clinics in Geriatric Medicine, 1996Atherogenic risk factors provoke chronic injury to the endothelium in certain parts of the arterial tree leading to dysfunctional endothelium. Lipid accumulation, macrophage formation, and smooth muscle cell proliferation are key events in the initial slow progression of atherosclerotic lesions (phase 1).

Alcohol and coronary artery disease
International Journal of Cardiology, 1994Alcohol affects the heart and circulation in several ways. Chronic alcohol consumption can be associated with a variety of cardiovascular disorders, ranging from hypertension and stroke to heart failure and sudden death. At the same time an inverse correlation has been found between moderate drinking and incidence of coronary artery disease, perhaps ...

Echocardiography in coronary artery disease
Current Opinion in Cardiology, 1992Echocardiography has come a long way since its beginnings in the early days of M-mode. Today echocardiography is a useful tool in the management and diagnosis of coronary artery disease. It is used in the emergency room to aid in the exclusion or confirmation of acute coronary syndromes and in their management.

Echocardiography and coronary artery disease
The International Journal of Cardiac Imaging, 1993Echocardiography is playing an increasingly important role in the management of patients with coronary artery disease. With the addition of new digital technology and new technological advances, such as multiplane transesophageal echocardiography and intravascular ultrasound, there is every expectation that this use of cardiac ultrasound will grow even
