angina pectoris
Myocardial infarction occurs when the blood flow to the myocardium is suddenly reduced or stopped due to constriction or occlusion of coronary arteries leading to myocardial damage.
Coronary Heart disease caused by atherosclerosis or the build-up of plaque on the inner walls of the arteries.
Heart disease typically does not cause fatty deposits in the arteries. Rather the process is the other way around: an unhealthy diet high in fat and cholesterol causes a build up of fatty deposits, and these deposits lead to heart diseases such as Coronary Heart Disease.
Coronary Heart disease caused by atherosclerosis or the build-up of plaque on the inner walls of the arteries.
atherosclerosis is a condition where plaque builds up in your arteries. This can narrow the artery, reducing blood flow and oxygen perfusion. In the case of the coronary system this reduced perfusion can lead to chest pain or a heart attack. this condition can be worsened if the plaque build up ruptured. the body will respond to this by building a clot around the area, further reducing blood flow and oxygen. worst case scenario this will lead to an acute myocardial (AMI) causing cell death to cardiac muscle.
Stress can produce chronic increases in adrenaline levels, and have related those changes to an increased risk of heart disease. It can constrict the coronary arteries in such a way that blood flow to the heart muscle is reduced. Finally may lead to death
Arteriosclerotic cerebrovascular disease is a condition of reduced blood flow to the brain. The cause of this condition is hardening of the arteries caused by buildup of plaque.
IHD stands for Ischemic Heart Disease, which is a condition characterized by reduced blood supply to the heart muscle due to a blockage in one or more of the coronary arteries. This can lead to symptoms like chest pain (angina) and increase the risk of heart attacks.
Aginia Pectoris Angina is a type of chest pain or discomfort caused by reduced blood flow to the heart muscle. Angina (an-JI-nuh or AN-juh-nuh) is a symptom of coronary artery disease. When you have coronary artery disease

Ischaemic Heart Disease (coronary artery disease or CAD) is a condition in which atheroma (fatty deposits) builds up in the linings of the walls of the coronary arteries. This causes a narrow artery and reduced blood flow to the heart muscle. This process can occur in other arteries of the body. Important arteries which, if affected can have medical consequences, are the carotid arteries in the neck, (which supply blood to the brain), and the femoral /popliteal arteries in the legs. In these situations a bruit (noise) may be heard over the area affected (i.e. carotid or femoral arteries), through a stethoscope. Atheroma at a certain point, results in obstruction to the blood flow of the coronary arteries, which leads to the inability to provide adequate oxygen to the cardiac muscle, therefore an inability to meet demand. Therefore when the heart has to work harder (i.e. in exercise, or in certain medical conditions, such as hyperthyroidism or anaemia insufficient blood reaches the heart muscle. The muscle is then said to be ischaemic. Ischaemia can also occur from coronary artery spasm, or when the heart is enlarged from increased strain, such as in high blood pressure (hypertension) or tightness at the root of the main blood vessel leading from the heart (aortic stenosis). In practice, a reduction in coronary artery diameter by 50% or more, on coronary arteriogram is judged significant, and will most likely cause symptoms of angina. Myocardial Ischaemia is manifested in central chest pain, causing stable angina, unstable angina and myocardial infarction (MI).
Atherosclerosis is a condition in which an artery wall thickens as a result of the buildup of fatty materials. Atherosclerosis results in a reduced flow of blood in the affected artery. Atherosclerosis can develop in the coronary arteries, which supply blood to the heat muscle.
