A Systematic Review on Coronary Heart Disease: A Transient Ischemic Stroke
Abstract: Coronary Heart Disease (CHD) and Transient Ischemic Attack (TIA) are significant cardiovascular and cerebrovascular disorders that often share similar risk factors and underlying pathophysiological processes. CHD involves the narrowing or obstruction of the coronary arteries due to atherosclerosis, resulting in diminished blood flow to the heart. A transient ischemic attack (TIA), often called a "mini stroke," occurs when blood flow to the brain is briefly disrupted, usually due to a …
