Aorta
The aorta is the main artery in the human body, originating from the left ventricle of the heart and extending down to the abdomen, where it splits into two smaller arteries (the common iliac arteries).

Artery
An artery (plural arteries) is a blood vessel that takes blood away from the heart to all parts of the body (tissues, lungs, etc).
New!!: Vascular disease and Artery · See more »
Atheroma
An atheroma is a reversible accumulation of degenerative material in the inner layer of an artery wall.

Blood pressure
Blood pressure (BP) is the pressure of circulating blood on the walls of blood vessels.
New!!: Vascular disease and Blood pressure · See more »
Blood vessel
The blood vessels are the part of the circulatory system, and microcirculation, that transports blood throughout the human body.
New!!: Vascular disease and Blood vessel · See more »
Brain
The brain is an organ that serves as the center of the nervous system in all vertebrate and most invertebrate animals.

Cardiovascular disease
Cardiovascular disease (CVD) is a class of diseases that involve the heart or blood vessels.

Cerebrovascular disease
Cerebrovascular disease includes a variety of medical conditions that affect the blood vessels of the brain and the cerebral circulation.
New!!: Vascular disease and Cerebrovascular disease · See more »
Cholesterol
Cholesterol (from the Ancient Greek chole- (bile) and stereos (solid), followed by the chemical suffix -ol for an alcohol) is an organic molecule.
New!!: Vascular disease and Cholesterol · See more »
Circulatory system
The circulatory system, also called the cardiovascular system or the vascular system, is an organ system that permits blood to circulate and transport nutrients (such as amino acids and electrolytes), oxygen, carbon dioxide, hormones, and blood cells to and from the cells in the body to provide nourishment and help in fighting diseases, stabilize temperature and pH, and maintain homeostasis.
New!!: Vascular disease and Circulatory system · See more »
Disseminated intravascular coagulation
Disseminated intravascular coagulation (DIC) is a condition in which blood clots form throughout the body, blocking small blood vessels.
New!!: Vascular disease and Disseminated intravascular coagulation · See more »
Endothelium
Endothelium refers to cells that line the interior surface of blood vessels and lymphatic vessels, forming an interface between circulating blood or lymph in the lumen and the rest of the vessel wall.
New!!: Vascular disease and Endothelium · See more »
Erythromelalgia
Erythromelalgia, formerly known as Mitchell's disease (after Silas Weir Mitchell), is a rare vascular peripheral pain disorder in which blood vessels, usually in the lower extremities or hands, are episodically blocked (frequently on and off daily), then become hyperemic and inflamed.
New!!: Vascular disease and Erythromelalgia · See more »
Family history (medicine)
In medicine, a family history (FH or FHx) consists of information about disorders from which the direct blood relatives of the patient have suffered.
New!!: Vascular disease and Family history (medicine) · See more »
Hemodynamics
Hemodynamics or hæmodynamics is the dynamics of blood flow.
New!!: Vascular disease and Hemodynamics · See more »
Human body
The human body is the entire structure of a human being.
New!!: Vascular disease and Human body · See more »
Inflammation
Inflammation (from inflammatio) is part of the complex biological response of body tissues to harmful stimuli, such as pathogens, damaged cells, or irritants, and is a protective response involving immune cells, blood vessels, and molecular mediators.

Kidney
The kidneys are two bean-shaped organs present in left and right sides of the body in vertebrates.

Low-density lipoprotein
Low-density lipoprotein (LDL) is one of the five major groups of lipoprotein which transport all fat molecules around the body in the extracellular water.

Lymphocyte
A lymphocyte is one of the subtypes of white blood cell in a vertebrate's immune system.

Macrophage
Macrophages (big eaters, from Greek μακρός (makrós).
New!!: Vascular disease and Macrophage · See more »
Pathogen
In biology, a pathogen (πάθος pathos "suffering, passion" and -γενής -genēs "producer of") or a '''germ''' in the oldest and broadest sense is anything that can produce disease; the term came into use in the 1880s.
New!!: Vascular disease and Pathogen · See more »
Peripheral artery disease
Peripheral artery disease (PAD) is a narrowing of the arteries other than those that supply the heart or the brain.
New!!: Vascular disease and Peripheral artery disease · See more »
Physical examination
A physical examination, medical examination, or clinical examination (more popularly known as a check-up) is the process by which a medical professional investigates the body of a patient for signs of disease.
New!!: Vascular disease and Physical examination · See more »
Raynaud syndrome
Raynaud syndrome, also known as Raynaud's phenomenon, is a medical condition in which spasm of arteries cause episodes of reduced blood flow.
New!!: Vascular disease and Raynaud syndrome · See more »
Redox
Redox (short for reduction–oxidation reaction) (pronunciation: or) is a chemical reaction in which the oxidation states of atoms are changed.
New!!: Vascular disease and Redox · See more »
Renal artery
The renal arteries normally arise off the left interior side of the abdominal aorta, immediately below the superior mesenteric artery, and supply the kidneys with blood.

Renal artery stenosis
Renal artery stenosis is the narrowing of one of the renal arteries, most often caused by atherosclerosis or fibromuscular dysplasia.
