| 21. | In 1964 he returned to Britain with his young family to teach at the Atheroma Resident Unit in Glasgow.
|
| 22. | Higher pressures increase heart workload and progression of unhealthy tissue growth ( atheroma ) that develops within the walls of arteries.
|
| 23. | These capped fatty deposits ( now called'atheromas') produce enzymes that cause the artery to enlarge over time.
|
| 24. | Because artery walls enlarge at locations with atheroma, detecting atheroma before death and autopsy has long been problematic at best.

| 25. | Because artery walls enlarge at locations with atheroma, detecting atheroma before death and autopsy has long been problematic at best.
|
| 26. | Most methods have focused on the openings of arteries; highly relevant, yet totally miss the atheroma within artery walls.
|
| 27. | TWAR's DNA and proteins keep showing up in atheroma, the fatty, diseased tissue that blocks the coronary arteries.
|
| 28. | If the fibrous cap separating a soft atheroma from the bloodstream within the artery ruptures, tissue fragments are exposed and released.
|
| 29. | In effect, the muscular portion of the artery wall forms small aneurysms just large enough to hold the atheroma that are present.
|
| 30. | Furthermore, a bulge of atheroma may be the cause of turbulent flow, where audible turbulence may be detected with a stethoscope.
