The Study of Age Related Changes in Coronary Arteries and its Relevance to the Atherosclerosis

Ultrasound evaluation of effect of different degree of wrist extension on radial artery dimension at the wrist joint

“…The changes of atherosclerosis happen as early as the fourth decade. [ 8 ] The uniqueness of our study is that we negated the influence of the confounding variables such as gender and age as explained above by including only the young healthy female subjects.…”

Young adults' knowledge and attitudes towards cardiovascular disease: A systematic review and meta‐analysis

“…While atherosclerosis starts in childhood, the clinical manifestation of CVD is not seen until adulthood, in part due to atherosclerosis progressing slowly and the human body being able to compensate as it develops (Deopujari & Dixit, 2010;Hong, 2010). However, CVD is usually associated with older people and not young adults (Rubin & Borden, 2012).…”

Micromorphology of Skeletonized and Pedicled Internal Thoracic and Radial Arteries

“…In most specimens other types of alterations were detected (central picture), namely local or diffuse splitting of internal elastic lamina (central picture, A), reduced tortuosity of the internal elastic lamina (central picture, B), detachment (central picture, C and D), and thickening (central picture, E and F) of the intima, which are considered to be common manifestations of a degenerative process. 13,14 The incidence of ITA and RA degenerative changes is presented in the Table. The study of ITA and RA muscular fibers reported that in the distal segments of both arteries there was no noticeable separate longitudinal muscular layer. Almost the entire thickness of the media is presented by circular layer of myocites, whose orientation was relatively constant in 3 mutually perpendicular planes.…”
