Descripción
Sumario:In Western countries, cardiovascular disease is the leading cause of death in both women and men. Half of these deaths are attributable to coronary heart disease, mainly caused by atherosclerosis, an obstructive process that begins early in humans and persists through the life of patients who suffer.
