Cardiovascular diseases (CVD) and strokes produce immense health and economic burdens globally. Coronary Artery Disease (CAD) is the most common type of cardiovascular disease. Coronary Angiography, which is an invasive approach for detection and tre...
Coronary heart disease (CHD) is one of the severe health issues and is one of the most common types of heart diseases. It is the most frequent cause of mortality across the globe due to the lack of a healthy lifestyle. Owing to the fact that a heart ...
Arterial hypotension during the early phase of anesthesia can lead to adverse outcomes such as a prolonged postoperative stay or even death. Predicting hypotension during anesthesia induction is complicated by its diverse causes. We investigated the ...
