The notion that atherosclerosis carries features of an inflammatory disease has existed for quite some time. As early as 1856, Rudolf Virchow in his Textbook on Pathology mentioned the term “coronaritis”. Almost 150 years later, following the elucidation of major cardiovascular risk factors in the 1950s Framingham Study, Russell Ross entitled his 1999 review on mechanisms of atherosclerosis …

Myocardial infarction is often caused by the rupture of unstable plaque in atherosclerosis with mild-to-moderate stenosis. Research has revealed that local tissue inflammation is closely involved in the rupture of atherosclerotic plaque.1 Stabilization of atherosclerotic plaque by strictly managing the risk factors for coronary artery disease is a crucial strategy to prevent the recurrence of…

Mounting evidence suggests that atherosclerosis begins in early childhood,1,2 possibly already during foetal life.3 This underscores the importance of primary prevention in early life. As many people suffering from atherosclerotic disease lack conventional risk factors (e.g. heredity, dyslipidaemia, smoking, obesity, diabetes and hypertension), interest has gradually increased in research on 'non…

Coronary Artery Spasm and Adventitial Inflammation
Coronary artery spasm plays an important role in the pathogenesis of a wide range of ischaemic heart disease, not only in variant angina, but also in other forms of angina pectoris and myocardial infarction.1,2 Recent studies have demonstrated that coronary spasm is also as frequently noted in European people as in Asian people.3
