  • Alpha high-density lipoprotein deficiency

    Tangier disease is caused by a mutation in the ATP-binding cassette A1 (ABCA1) gene, which produces severe high-density lipoprotein (HDL) deficiency syndrome. Tangier illness is a genetic metabolic ailment that is highly rare. It induces reverse cholesterol transport (RCT) dysfunction, which leads to cholesterol deposition in peripheral tissue cells and a variety of clinicopathological alterations, including dyslipidemia and the early beginning o  Read More

  • Atherosclerosis

It may end up restricting blood flow to the organs and tissues. Although healthy arteries are quite flexible and elastic, their walls may harden over time. It can burst altogether in extreme conditions. It is often limited to a heart problem, but any body part can be affected by t  Read More

  • Atrial fibrillation

    Atrial Fibrillation is an irregular and extremely rapid heartbeat, the same leading to forming of blood clots in the heart. A-fib heightens the risk of strokes, heart failure and other heart complications. It results in fast, pounding palpitations, shortness of breath and weakness. While A-fib is not a serious condition, it does call for immediate medical attention to prevent stroke. Cure/medications for Atrial fi  Read More

  • Autosomal dominant long qt syndrome

    Many people who have long QT syndrome don't have any signs or symptoms. You might be aware of your condition only because of: Results of an electrocardiogram (ECG) done for an unrelated reason A family history of long QT syndrome Genetic testing results Fainting is the most common sign of long QT syndrome. Fainting (syncope) occurs when the heart temporarily beats in an unorganized way  Read More

  • Eisenmenger complex

    Eisenmenger syndrome affects some people who have structural heart defects from birth, more specifically, a ventricular septal defect (VSD) or another shunt. A VSD is a hole in the heart that connects the left and right ventricles. It interferes with the flow of blood from the heart to the lungs, which results in abnormal blood circulation. People with this condition are born with a hole between the two pumping chambers of their hearts.  Read More

  • Idiopathic dilated cardiomyopathy

    When the heart's pumping sides/chambers start growing unusually large, the valves and muscles start stretching and thinning. It is the disease called Idiopathic Dilated Cardiomyopathy. The disease begins with the left side of the heart as the swelling of the heart chambers makes it difficult for the heart to pump enough blood to different parts of the body. Cure/Treatments/Medications:Cure and treatments of  Read More

  • Long qt syndrome type 1

    The potassium ion channels in the heart do not function properly in long QT syndrome type 1, which causes interference with the electrical activity of the heart. In people with LQT1, emotional stress or physical activity, especially swimming, can cause arrhythmias (abnormal heartbeats).LQT1 patients are more likely to experience torsades de pointes, the most dangerous type of ventricular tachycardia. Altho  Read More

  • Non-obstructive hypertrophic cardiomyopa...

    Non-obstructive hypertrophic cardiomyopathy is a condition in which the heart muscle becomes enlarged and stiff. This can make it difficult for your heart to pump blood effectively, causing symptoms such as shortness of breath, chest pain, dizziness, fatigue and fainting spells.In some cases, you may also be diagnosed with mitral valve prolapse (MVP), which is caused by a defect in the valve separating your  Read More

  • Superior vena cava syndrome

    Superior vena cava syndrome (SVC) is a condition that occurs when the vein that carries blood from the head, neck, and upper chest back up to the heart is blocked.The symptoms of SVC depend on which veins are affected, but they can include chest pain, headaches, swelling around the eyes and face, and difficulty swallowing or speaking.The risk factors for SVC include:Being over 40 yea  Read More

  • Thromboangiitis obliterans

    Thromboangiitis obliterans is a rare disease in which blood vessels of the hands and feet become blocked. A non-atherosclerotic, segmental inflammatory condition known as Buerger's disease (thromboangiitis obliterans) typically affects the small and medium-sized arteries, veins, and nerves in the upper and lower extremities. The origin is uncertain; however, it includes immunological and coagulatio  Read More

  • Vacterl association

    The causes of Vacterl association disease (VAD) are unknown, but it's been linked to certain viruses like West Nile and Zika. When infection with a virus happens during pregnancy, it can cause VAD in the fetus or newborn. VAD can also be caused by exposure to other substances like toxic chemicals, radiation, and certain medicines during pregnancy.There are many risk factors for viral association.  Read More
