Coronary12
- Twenty-one percent of all coronary heart disease deaths in the United States each year are attributed to smoking. (macombgov.org)
- Coronary artery disease (CAD), also called ischaemic heart disease , develops when the major blood vessels, known as the coronary arteries , that supply your heart with blood, oxygen and nutrients become damaged or diseased. (mydynamics.co.za)
