A Review on Coronary Artery Disease and Its Inflammatory Biomarkers
Mrs. Sunanda Sabbithi
A Review on Coronary Artery Disease and Its Inflammatory Biomarkers - pp12-15
Coronary artery disease is the major cause of death worldwide. Plaque accumulation in the walls of the coronary
arteries, which carry blood to the heart, is the cause of coronary artery disease. There are many factors that result in
coronary artery disease, like obesity, smoking, alcohol consumption, etc. CAD is diagnosed using a coronary
angiogram, a Doppler test, etc., but these tests are expensive and are not affordable by all the patients. This review
article shows the readily available and cost-effective biomarkers that are used to diagnose CAD, like WBC, NLR
ratio, C-reactive protein, LDL, MCVand MCH etc., for the patients who are diagnosed with CAD.
