Secondary hypertension : This type results from an underlying condition such as kidney disease, hormonal disorders, or the use of certain medications. Artery Damage : Hypertension damages the inner lining of your arteries, making them less elastic and more prone to plaque buildup.

The role of 4-hydroxynonenal (4-HNE), which is the most abundant stable product of lipid peroxidation, in vascular calcification has been poorly investigated.METHODS:Serum was collected from patients with chronic kidney disease and controls, and the levels of 4-HNE and 8-iso-prostaglandin F2α were measured.

Heart bypass surgery, or coronary artery bypass graft surgery (CABG), is performed to treat patients with severe coronary artery disease (CAD). This condition occurs when the blood vessels that supply blood to the heart become blocked or narrowed by plaque buildup.

PAD is a serious, progressive cardiovascular disease primarily caused by a buildup of fatty plaque in the blood vessels, or atherosclerosis. This plaque narrows the blood vessels and reduces blood flow to the legs and feet, which may significantly impair physical function, walking performance and quality of life.

IntroductionAtherosclerosis, the hardening and narrowing of the arteries, occurs due to the buildup of plaque on the inner walls of the arteries which can result in reduced blood flow to the organs and tissues. Risk factors such as smoking, chronic kidney disease, and aging can contribute to plaque formation.

Atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease (ASCVD), caused by plaque buildup in arterial walls, is one of the leading causes of disability and death worldwide.1,2 1,2 ASCVD causes or contributes to conditions that include coronary artery disease (CAD), cerebrovascular disease, and peripheral vascular disease (inclusive of aortic aneurysm).3
