(Wiley-Blackwell) City center residents who took part in a study were almost twice as likely to suffer from coronary artery calcification (CAC), which can lead to heart disease, than people who lived in less polluted urban and rural areas. Researchers spoke to 1,225 people, including 251 (20 percent) who lived ...

Researchers at UC have confirmed that fat surrounding the outside of arteries in humans - particularly the left coronary artery - may influence the onset of coronary artery disease, or atherosclerosis, which is the leading cause of death in the U.S. These findings, presented at the American Heart Association's Arteriosclerosis, ...

(University of Cincinnati Academic Health Center) Researchers at the University of Cincinnati have confirmed that fat surrounding the outside of arteries in humans -- particularly the left coronary artery -- may influence the onset of coronary artery disease, or atherosclerosis, which is the leading cause of death in the US.

Scientists at the University of Southampton in the UK, have made a discovery that improves our understanding of how arteries control blood pressure. The finding is expected to lead to better treatments for cardiovascular or heart disease. Led by Dr Graham Burdge, Reader in Human Nutrition at ...

High fat diets cause damage to blood vessels earlier than previously thought, and these structural and mechanical changes may be the first step in the development of high blood pressure. These findings in mice, by Marie Billaud and colleagues from the University of Virginia School of Medicine in the US, ...

(University of Calgary) New research from the University of Calgary's Hotchkiss Brain Institute shows that by using a CT scan, doctors can predict which patients are at risk of continued bleeding in the brain after a stroke. This vital information will allow doctors to utilize the most powerful blood clotting ...

A new comparison of the procedures to help prevent strokes by removing or relieving blockages in the arteries of the neck concludes they are equally effective at halting repeat blockage. Two years after treatment with either surgery or a minimally invasive treatment using wire coils called stents, the re-blockage rate ...

Opening blocked neck arteries with a metal stent or surgery were equally durable, in research presented at the American Stroke Association's International Stroke Conference 2012.
