http://www.msd.nl/cs5_2_1.html
Instabiele angina pectoris is een tijdelijk zuurstoftekort in de hartspier door een aandoening van de kransslagaders; meestal is er sprake van vernauwde kransslagaders door atherosclerose (vetafzetting in het bloedvat). Instabiele angina pectoris ontstaat wanneer er beschadigingen optreden in de vetafzettingen aan de binnenzijde van de kransslagaders. Het lichaam probeert dat te herstellen. Tijdens het herstelproces klonteren bloedplaatjes samen op de beschadigde plek. Door de vernauwing die ontstaat, is de doorstroming van het bloedvat verminderd en kan minder zuurstofrijk bloed het hart bereiken.
Het gevolg kan zijn dat een stolsel een kransslagader plotseling helemaal afsluit. Het gedeelte van het hart dat zuurstof toegevoerd kreeg door die kransslagader sterft dan af. Dat noemen we een acuut hartinfarct of hartaanval. Als de hartaanval niet zo ernstig is, ontstaat op de plaats van het afgestorven gedeelte een litteken, dat uiteindelijk bindweefsel wordt. Het hart pompt dan wel door, maar op de plaats van het litteken werkt de hartspier niet meer. Als de hartaanval een groot deel van de hartspier aantast, overlijdt de patiënt.

Lipoprotein Lipase and Severity of Angina Pectoris (return to The combination of a high level of plasma triglycerides and a low level of high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C) is considered a potent risk factor for coronary artery disease. The combination is associated with low plasma levels and activity of lipoprotein lipase (LPL), the enzyme crucial for the removal of triglyceride-rich lipoproteins. To determine whether low LPL activity is associated with subjective and objective indices of myocardial ischemia, a consortium of Dutch and Canadian universities studied a sample of men taking part in the Regression Growth Evaluation Statin Study (REGRESS). All 884 subjects had angiographically documented coronary artery disease with stenosis exceeding 50% in one major vessel. When the subjects were grouped into quartiles by LPL activity, the quartile with lowest activity had the highest subjective level of myocardial ischemia, as measured by the New York Heart Association angina classification, and the highest objective degree of myocardial ischemia, as measured by the number, duration, and burden of ischemic episodes observed during ambulatory ECG monitoring. The quartile with lowest LPL activity also had the lowest levels of HDL-C and the highest levels of triglycerides. The differences between the lowest and highest quartiles were statistically highly significant.

PREVENT HEART DISEASE
This site assists in opposing heart disease by providing educational information based on medical journal data citing the role of cigarettes in adverse effects generally , and at this site, specifically, their role in causing heart disease. Cigarettes contain toxic chemicals and impair the immune system. This combination makes cigarettes a risk factor in heart disease.
Cigarettes contain toxic chemicals . Deaths are " natural and probable consequences ." Heart disease typically involves prior tobacco-induced impaired breathing, the same factor in children who die of SIDS
Being exposed to others' TTS for a mere 30 minutes can kill you.286 J Am Med Ass'n (#4) (24 July 2001).
"Chapman, of England, long ago (1802) described as 'tobacco heart' a hypertrophy and dilation of the heart due to tobacco."—John H.

In this article: What is angina pectoris? What happens in the heart? What causes an angina attack? Are angina attacks predictable?
You've never had a problem climbing upstairs with the groceries. You could always keep up with your children or grandchildren with little effort. But recently you've noticed a pressure, a suffocating or squeezing pain, or discomfort in your chest that seems to be triggered by certain activities or emotions. You know that stopping to rest helps the pain or discomfort go away. If you have mentioned these attacks to your doctor, she or he may have told you that you have angina . And, if that is the case, you know you may also need to take short-acting nitroglycerin under the tongue or as a spray to help relieve attacks. This section of LifeHeart.com explains what angina is, what causes it, and how it is diagnosed. Angina is serious. Some people with angina may discover they are unable to participate fully in activities they enjoy. Others may find they are unable to continue working on a regular basis. Your doctor will help you find the best treatment plan available to help control your angina attacks. With your treatment plan in hand, you can take steps to begin regaining control of your life. Learning more about angina is an important part of this process.

Book Series: DEVELOPMENTS IN CARDIOVASCULAR MEDICINE Volume 158 Although there are many books on angina, few are devoted to the important problem of how to evaluate drug efficacy in angina pectoris. Drug Evaluation in Angina Pectoris has two fundamental aims: the first is to review the methodological aspects of drug evaluation in stable and unstable angina pectoris; the second is to provide a logical and methodological background for future studies aimed at assessing the ability of medical treatment to improve prognosis. Part I updates the pathophysiology, clinical presentation and prognosis of angina pectoris. Part II aims to `put in numbers' the symptoms and signs of myocardial ischemia, starting from a revision of the currently used parameters. It is extremely important to quantify the variability of the disease for the correct design of clinical trial, a subject dealt with in Part III, which also discusses some clinico-pharmacological aspects of therapy. Part IV is a critical review of the drugs currently used for the treatment of stable and unstable angina, and particularly considers some important unresolved issues concerning their use. The current FDA and EC guidelines for the evaluation of antianginal drugs are briefly discussed in Part V, giving clinical investigators insight into how antianginal drugs are evaluated by regulatory agencies and what is considered as proof of a valid efficacy/tolerability ratio.

Book Series: DEVELOPMENTS IN CARDIOVASCULAR MEDICINE Volume 152
Angina pectoris with normal coronary arteriograms is a common entity which has puzzled cardiologists almost since the advent of coronary arteriography. Despite major advances in the understanding of the pathophysiology of angina in recent years and a multitude of studies on the subject, the cause and mechanisms underlying the syndrome of angina with normal coronary arteries remain unknown. Indeed, results of investigations are controversial and speculation still prevails regarding the nature of the so called `Syndrome X'.
Almost every important aspect of Syndrome X has been tackled in the book and the reader is exposed not only to the cardiologists' opinion, but also to the authoritative views of the gastroenterologists, gynaecologists and psychiatrists, extremely well represented in this monograph. The book deals with `cardiologists' Syndrome X' and not the metabolic entity termed `Syndrome X'. The possible connection between the two, however, is discussed.
Angina with Normal Coronary Arteries: Syndrome X contributes to the understanding of Syndrome X and helps clinicians manage their Syndrome X-patients better and investigators to open new avenues for research.

Angina, or angina pectoris, is the medical term for chest pains behind the breastbone. Angina pectoris is Latin for squeezing of the chest. Angina is a specific type of pain in the chest caused by inadequate blood flow through the blood vessels (coronary vessels) of the heart muscle (myocardium). Angina, characterized by chest pain, is a symptom of a condition called myocardial ischemia , which occurs when the heart muscle isn't getting as much blood as it needs to function.
Angina is not a disease itself. It is the primary symptom of

Introduction General Information Heart Stents ... Angina pectoris is the medical term for chest pain due to coronary heart disease. Angina is a symptom of a condition called myocardial ischemia , which occurs when the heart muscle does not get the oxygen it needs to do a certain level of work. Angina can be triggered by exercise, sexual intercourse, acute stress or large meals ingested in a short period of time. It can also be triggered by tests. Angina is felt in many different ways
Chest discomfort, pain, tightness or pressure are symptoms of angina. There may also be pain in the neck, jaw, back, left arm or both arms. This may be accompanied by a rapid heart beat, interruptions of the normal heart beat, profuse sweating, nausea or shortness of breath. Angina may be a single symptom or a combination of the abovementioned symptoms.
