Artwork of artery narrowed by atherosclerosis
Atherosclerosis. Illustration of a cross-section through an artery narrowed by atherosclerosis. Fat build-up (yellow) has narrowed the lumen (channel) of the artery thus restricting the blood flow. Red blood cells (red, disc shaped), yellow fatty particles and white blood cells (blue) are seen flowing through the artery. Narrowed arteries such arteries such as this are found most often in people who have a high concentration of cholesterol in their bloodstream. Narrowing of the arteries increases the risk of blood clots forming, and is associated with coronary heart disease and strokes

EDITORS COMMENTS
This artwork captures the detrimental effects of atherosclerosis on our arteries. In this cross-section illustration, we witness the alarming consequences of fat build-up within an artery, resulting in its narrowing and restricting blood flow. The yellow fatty particles symbolize the accumulation that has constricted the lumen or channel of the artery, impeding the smooth passage of vital red blood cells. As we observe this intricate portrayal, it becomes evident that narrowed arteries like these are commonly found in individuals with high cholesterol levels in their bloodstream. This visual representation serves as a stark reminder of how lifestyle choices can impact our cardiovascular health. The presence of white blood cells flowing alongside red blood cells further emphasizes the severity of this condition. Not only does arterial narrowing increase the risk of dangerous blood clots forming but it is also closely associated with coronary heart disease and strokes – two life-threatening conditions that demand immediate attention. Through this thought-provoking artwork by Science Photo Library, we gain insight into arteriosclerotic vascular disease (ASVD) caused by atheroma formation due to hyperlipidemia. It reminds us to prioritize our well-being by maintaining healthy lipid profiles and adopting heart-healthy habits to prevent such debilitating diseases from taking hold.
