In the last ten years, major strides have been made in defining the
presence and role of inflammation in atherosclerosis as well as in
injury to the tissues that occurs after episodes of ischemia and
reperfusion. In sixteen chapters, written by world-renowned individuals
from different countries, the role of inflammation and different
mediators in the pathogenesis of atherosclerosis is presented. The
significance of inflammation and possible therapeutic implications is
also described in depth.
This book is of great interest for a wide range of physicians,
researchers, and scientists who may want to study more and develop the
concept of inflammation and atherosclerosis.
