Heart Disease And Treatment
Muhtasari
Coronary heart disease and high blood pressure are two of the most common circulatory disorders, and modern medicine treats them with a wide toolkit: physical interventions that restore blood flow directly, drugs that intervene at specific points in the body's chemistry, and, further afield, an entirely different kind of tool built from a single type of antibody produced in the laboratory. This topic covers all of it, from risk factors through to the mechanism of each named treatment.
You need to know how statins and plant stanol esters lower cholesterol by completely different routes, what beta-blockers and ACE inhibitors actually block, how systolic and diastolic blood pressure are defined, and how a monoclonal antibody is produced and used to detect or treat disease.
