Special Issue on：Coronary Heart Disease

Call for Papers

Coronary heart disease (CHD) is a narrowing of the blood vessels (coronary arteries) that supply oxygen and blood to the heart. It is a major cause of illness and death.

Coronary heart disease is generally caused by atherosclerosis - when plaque (cholesterol substances) accumulates on the artery walls, causing them to narrow, resulting in less blood flow to the heart. Sometimes a clot may form which can obstruct the flow of blood to heart muscle. Coronary heart disease commonly causes angina pectoris (chest pain), shortness of breath, heart attack (myocardial infarction) and other symptoms.

In this special issue, we intend to invite front-line researchers and authors to submit original research and review articles on exploring Coronary Heart Disease.

Authors should read over the journal’s Author Guidelines carefully before submission, Prospective authors should submit an electronic copy of their complete manuscript through the journal Paper Submission System.

Please kindly notice that the“Special Issue’’ under your manuscript title is supposed to be specified and the research field “Special Issue- Coronary Heart Disease”should be chosen during your submission.
