Accurate diagnostic tools and tests are of utmost importance. Contemporary research on microparticles, non-coding RNAs, proteomic characterization, ?, offers detailed molecular characteristics of athero-thrombosis.Prevention is equally important as treatment. The impact of eating habits in prophylaxis of many pathologies, including cardiovascular disease has been documented.Then new pharmacological agents. Managing hypercholesterolemia with PCSK9 inhibitors, shown great potential in efficient lipid lowering to achieve LDL-C treatment goals, as well as reduction in cardiovascular mortality and morbidity.However, therapeutic goals accomplishment requires supervision. Arising number of data support that cardiovascular risk prediction can be improved with imaging modalities displaying atheroma: carotid plaque ultrasonography, coronary calcium score, intravascular ultrasonography, and optical coherent tomography or many others.As atherosclerosis is a progressive disease, it comes the time for more radical management, including endovascular and surgical intervention. There is field for new stent and equipment technologies, new surgical and endovascular techniques, supervision of endovascular procedures with IVUS, OCT, functional flow assessment or cell therapy.From diagnosis to risk stratification, elaborated prevention models, finally to modern and optimized therapeutic intervention. 606 $aResearch & information: general$2bicssc 610 $afamilial hypercholesterolemia 610 $agenetic screening 610 $aatherosclerosis prevention 610 $aearly detection 610 $aatherosclerosis 610 $acigarette smoking 610 $amiR-27b 610 $aperipheral artery disease 610 $asubclinical atherosclerosis 610 $aSCORE 610 $aFramingham 610 $aQRISK 610 $aPROCAM 610 $acardiovascular risk 610 $apulse wave velocity 610 $aintima media thickness 610 $amalondialdehyde low-density lipoprotein 610 $ahigh-risk plaque 610 $acoronary computed tomography angiography 610 $astatin 610 $acardiovascular risk factors 610 $aheart failure 610 $amajor cardiac and cerebral ischemic events 610 $adegenerative aortic stenosis 610 $arisk stratification 610 $avascular resistance 610 $acardiovascular disease 610 $aacute myocardial infarction 610 $aintravascular imaging 610 $astatins 610 $acontrol-theoretic model 610 $alogistic growth 610 $acoronary artery disease 610 $afibrin clot 610 $afibrinolysis 610 $athromboembolism 610 $acarotid intima-media complex 610 $acarotid plaque 610 $amajor adverse cardiac and cerebral events 610 $aprevention 610 $ascores 610 $avitamin D 610 $amyocardial infarction 610 $amales 610 $aCoronary Artery Surgery Study Score 615 7$aResearch & information: general 700 $aKab?ak-Ziembicka$b Anna$4edt$01314105 702 $aKab?ak-Ziembicka$b Anna$4oth 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910566472203321 996 $aThe Prevention and Treatment of Atherosclerosis$93031711 997 $aUNINA
