Pathophisiology
Coronary artery disease (CAD) is the most Common type of heart disease, also referred to as coronary heart disorder. Coronary arteries are the essential blood vessels that supply your heart with blood, oxygen and nutrients. CAD occurs when these that provide blood to coronary heart muscle turn out to be hardened and narrowed. Atherosclerosis (regularly known as “hardening” or “clogging” of the arteries) is the buildup of cholesterol and fatty deposits (referred to as plaques) on the internal walls of the arteries. These plaques can avert blood go with the flow to the center muscle by clogging the artery or via causing abnormal artery tone and function.
Statistics

The age adjusted Death Rate is 71.31 per 100,000 of population ranks Sweden 121 in the world.
Treatment

Various drugs that are used to treat CAD are Cholesterol-modifying medications, Beta blockers, Nitroglycerin, Angiotensin-converting enzyme (ACE) inhibitors and angiotensin II receptor blockers (ARBs). Some of the Procedures to restore and improve blood flow like Angioplasty and stent placement (percutaneous coronary revascularization), Coronary artery bypass surgery.
Major Research
Some of the Major researches on Coronary artery disease in Sweden are Long-Term Risk of Stroke in Patients with Type 1 and Type 2 Diabetes Following Coronary Artery Bypass Grafting, Do socioeconomic factors modify the association between preoperative antidepressant use and survival following coronary artery bypass surgery?
