(elevated high sensitivity C-reactive protein, troponin, fibrinogen) 2) adipokines (leptin, adiponectin) 3)
CKD 4) air pollution and ionizing radiation 5) medications (NSAIDs) 6) coronary artery calcification and
carotid wall thickness and 7) microbiome 8) small dense LDL particles and lipoprotein(a) 9)
Hyperhomocysteinemia



List nonmodifiable risk factors for CAD - correct ans:Advanced age, male gender or woman after
menopause, and family history (genetics, shared environmental exposure).

pathogenesis of atherosclerosis.



Atherosclerosis - correct ans:A chronic inflammatory condition that results in damage to the arteries.
Thickening and hardening of the vessels are caused by the accumulation of lipid-laden macrophages
(foam cells) within the arterial walls, leading to the formation of a plaque.

What is the response-to-injury hypothesis in the development of atherosclerotic lesions? - correct
ans:The earliest event in atherogenesis is injury to the endothelium, which could be triggered by
hypertension, circulation of ROS (smoking, pollutants), dyslipidemia, and elevated A1C.



When foam cells accumulate in a significant amount within the arterial wall, they form ______ . What is
then released? - correct ans:a lesion called a fatty streak; inflammatory cytokines, damaging enzymes,
and growth factors.



Growth factors released released in atherogenesis stimulate _______ , which ________ . - correct
