The risk of coronary heart disease increases with a larger waistline and high triglyceride levels,according to a new research.
Heart Attack - Overview

However, both factors combined showed the highest risk of CAD.

Outcomes of Blood-pressure Control for Diabetes and Coronary Artery Disease Patients Examined
Study says patients with hypertension, diabetes and coronary artery disease who maintained their systolic blood pressure at less than 130 mm Hg did not have improved cardiovascular outcomes

Respiratory Stress Test can Spot Significant Coronary Artery Disease
A non-invasive Respiratory Stress Response (RSR) is able to measure the existence of significant coronary artery disease (sCAD.

Obstructive Coronary Artery Disease can be Predicted by Family History
People with a family history of early signs of coronary artery disease are at higher risk of developing obstructive coronary artery disease and plaque in their arteries.
