Elements of Ischemic Heart Disease
Perspectives in Biology and Medicine, 1977Ischemic heart disease is the leading cause of death in the United States [I]. Previously termed coronary heart disease [2], this disease causes about 35 percent of deaths, twice as many as are caused by malignant neoplasms or cancer. Considering the number of people of various ages in the population of the United States [3] and the prevalence of ...

Copper and ischemic heart disease
Biological Trace Element Research, 1983Absolute or relative deficiency of copper is hypothesized to be of prime importance in the etiology of ischemic heart disease. According to recent estimates, only 25% of the diets in the United States contain the 2 mg of copper thought to be required daily by adults.

Ischemic Heart Disease: An Update
Seminars in Nuclear Medicine, 2020Ischemic heart disease is a dynamic process of atherosclerosis of the coronary arteries or functional alterations of coronary circulation that can be modified by lifestyle, pharmacological therapies, and revascularization. Such treatment may result in disease stabilization or regression.

Ischemic heart disease in pregnancy
Seminars in Perinatology, 2014While ischemic heart disease in reproductive-age women is rare, cardiac disease is a leading cause of maternal mortality. In turn, coronary artery disease is one of the most common causes of maternal cardiac death. The incidence of coronary artery disease in pregnancy may be rising due to the increasing prevalence of comorbid risk factors.

Platelets and Ischemic Heart Disease
New England Journal of Medicine, 1980It is generally held that impairment of coronary-artery blood flow is a major cause of angina pectoris, myocardial infarction, ventricular arrhythmias, and sudden cardiac death.

Surgery for ischemic heart disease
Current Opinion in Cardiology, 1993Surgical treatment of ischemic heart disease continues to evolve, and specific criteria are available to guide management. The benefit of placing the left internal mammary artery to the left anterior descending artery is well known, and there are newer data, not including survival benefit, supporting the use of two internal mammary arteries. The role

Oxygen in ischemic heart disease
American Heart Journal, 19710 xygen has been used for years in patients with ischemic heart disease without attention to its indication or effects, both beneficial and detrimental. It has been assumed that an increase in arterial PO, would result in increased delivery of oxygen to hypoxic areas of the myocardium followed by improvement in cardiac function and, hopefully ...

Warfarin for Ischemic Heart Disease
Cardiology in Review, 2001Oral anticoagulation is one of the oldest ways for preventing secondary ischemic heart disease. With the introduction of aspirin, and low-dose aspirin in particular, the interest in oral anticoagulants has diminished, given the inherent bleeding risk.

Prostaglandins and ischemic heart disease
The American Journal of Medicine, 1981There is an abundance of information suggesting that prostaglandins are involved in the development and clinical expression of atherosclerosis. Many studies demonstrate a relationship between prostaglandins and the risk factors for peripheral and coronary artery disease.

Ischemic heart disease: An overview
The American Journal of Cardiology, 1975The studies on natural history of ischemic heart disease are reviewed and the major predictors of mortality identified. The severity of the coronary atherosclerosis and the status of ventricular function are found to be more important predictors of survival than the clinical presentation.
