Study finally confirms “inflammatory theory” of heart disease: Findings can be used to develop new treatments that minimize stroke risk
Many people know that plaque buildup is a precursor for heart disease, but what can be done to target this condition? In a recent study published in Nature Medicine, a team from the Icahn School of Medicine at Mount Sinai in New York identified a specific immune cell found in arterial plaque in those who recently suffered a stroke or mini-stroke. Their […]
