Once after the purification the purified blood is sent to the lungs for oxygenation i.e. for mixing the blood with oxygen…

Coronary heart disease (CHD) is a chronic disease accounting for over half of all cases…

DEFINITION of Spinal Arteriovenous Malformations is the rare abnormal tangle of blood vessels in the spinal cord. Untreated spine AVM can permanently damage your spinal cord.

The oxygen depleted blood and then passes into the veins that drain blood from the spinal cord to the heart and lungs. In the spine the blood passes…

Less common echocardiographic findings of IE include pseudoaneurysm, fistula, or valve perforation. The American…

Back in the 1950’s a cardiologist by the name of Meyer Friedman starting piecing together some clues he observed in the waiting area of his cardiology practice. Searching for some sort of cause for so many patients having high cholesterol and high blood pressure, and determining that there hadn’t been any change in diet in the general population, he made an observation. He noticed that some of the chairs had worn in awkward locations, like the front of the armrests. He concluded that it must be…
