The Miracle in Your Body and Mind  

Monday, March 17, 2008

Hello world……

I would like to invite you my friends to discuss about miracle. What is miracle? Most people think that a miracle is an extra ordinary aspect that we found very seldom in our life. However, the real fact is, we find the miracle very often in our life. Actually, we see and experience miracles every day, every hour, every minute and even every second in our life. We only do not realize or do not consciously aware that miracles happened in our life in every second. In every inhale and exhale of our breaths.

Not many of us, realize that every inhale we suck 1022(10 with 22 zero) atoms from the universe. Do we remember that our body consist of around 100 trillions cells or 20 thousand times of the number of all human beings in the world? Do we aware that each of our cell doing millions different things in one single second? Each cell coordinate their activities in very synchronize and precise ways to support life. In our body, there are around 250 different kinds of cells like blood, bones, hair, heart, flesh, liver, skin cells etc…..etc…….Are they only common thing like stuff that we can buy in a grocery store or in the hypermarket? No, they are all miracles of our life which we do not feel and aware consciously.

Those trillions of cells were only started from one ovum which is fertilized by a sperm cell that continuously splitting and duplicating themselves until a real whole completely body built. The diameter of a cell is only between 1/200 mm until ¼ mm (ovum cell). There are unlimited interesting things about the miracle in our life. If we really understand and aware on this, we can use this miracle as a power to heal our body and soul for the health of ourselves and those we love. We discuss the power of miracle healing, quantum healing, metaphysical healing, non-local, unlimited power to find the truth of happiness, health and prosperity. However, in the posted articles in this blog we will concentrate firstly on the miracle power of proper diet and nutrition. That can work wonder and so powerful to protect your health from serious expensive medical problems. If you follow my guidance carefully, you will feel like having an overall health insurance.

For those who do not understand the power of miracle, happiness and health will cost them a lot of money, very expensive that no body can avoid. In the miracle world you will find that, you can discover health, happiness and peace of mind that cost you only faith, a simple skill and knowledge about diet and healthy life concept, prayers or affirmations, happy words and relaxing state.

Let us together my friends, uncover the secret of miracle and be conscious, be aware on the unlimited potentials that all of us already have in our thoughts, mind, soul and body. If you are smart and wise then let us spread this appeal to help people around the world to be healthy and happy free from worry and problem of life.

Coronary Artery Disease

Diagram of the Coronary Arteries

Coronary artery disease (CAD) affects almost 13 million Americans, making it the most common form of heart disease. CAD and its complications, like arrhythmia, angina pectoris, and heart attack (also called myocardial infarction), are the leading causes of death in the United States. CAD most often results from a condition known as atherosclerosis, which happens when a waxy substance forms inside the arteries that supply blood to your heart. This substance, called plaque, is made of cholesterol, fatty compounds, calcium, and a blood-clotting material called fibrin. Doctors have found that there are 2 kinds of plaque: hard and soft.

Most people know about hard plaque and how it can cause a heart attack. If hard plaque builds up in the arteries that supply blood to your heart, the blood flow slows or stops. This decreases the amount of oxygen that gets to the heart, which can lead to a heart attack.

But doctors have now found that even though some heart attacks are caused by hard plaque, most heart attacks are caused by soft or vulnerable plaque. A vulnerable plaque is an inflamed part of an artery that can burst. This can lead to the formation of a blood clot, which can lead to heart attack.

What causes atherosclerosis?

Scientists think the disease starts when the very inner lining of the artery (the endothelium) is damaged. High blood pressure, high levels of cholesterol and triglycerides in the blood, and smoking are believed to lead to the development of plaque.

What are the symptoms?

Atherosclerosis may be present for years without causing symptoms. This slow disease process can begin in childhood. In some people, the condition can cause symptoms by the time they reach their 30s. In others, they do not have symptoms until they reach their 50s or 60s. But, as the blockage gets worse, the slowed blood supply to the heart may begin to cause something called angina pectoris, a Latin phrase that means, "strangling in the chest." Patients often say that angina is like a squeezing, suffocating, or burning feeling in their chest. The pain usually happens when the heart has an extra demand for blood, like during exercise or times of emotional stress.

Angina tends to start in the center of the chest but may move to your arm, neck, back, throat, or jaw. Some people say they feel numbness or a loss of sensation in their arms, shoulders, or wrists. An episode usually lasts no more than a few minutes and goes away with rest.

For certain patients with CAD, angina may not be present. Sometimes the lack of oxygen to the heart (called ischemia) does not cause any pain. In these cases, people are said to have silent ischemia.

How is CAD diagnosed?

Your doctor will take a medical history, ask about your symptoms, listen to your heart with a stethoscope, and perform certain tests, often including a chest x-ray. Here is a list of other tests that your doctor may order.

  • A baseline electrocardiogram (ECG or EKG), which records your heart's electrical activity while you sit quietly. An exercise ECG, also known as a stress test, will show how your heart responds to increasing exercise. Both tests are designed to show if your heart is not working properly, most likely due to a lack of oxygen.
  • An exercise thallium test, also called a nuclear stress test, which uses a radioactive substance that is injected into your bloodstream to show how blood flows through your arteries. Doctors can see if your heart muscle is damaged or dead, or if you have a serious narrowing in an artery. For people who cannot take an exercise test, medicines can be given that make your heart beat as if you were exercising.
  • Echocardiography, which uses sound waves to produce an image of the heart to see how it is working.
  • Coronary angiography, which is performed in the cardiac catheterization laboratory. After you are given medicine to relax you, dye is injected into your bloodstream to give doctors an x-ray "movie" of heart action and blood flow through your valves and arteries (called an angiogram). Doctors can see the number of blockages that you have and how serious those blockages are. Doctors often use this test to find out which treatment option may be best for you.
  • Positron emission tomography (PET) scanning, which uses information about the energy of certain elements in your body to show whether parts of the heart muscle are alive and working. A PET scan can also show if your heart is getting enough blood in order to keep the muscle healthy.

How is CAD treated?

Medicines

A number of medicines can help relieve the angina pain that comes with CAD. People who have severe angina are often given a number of different medicines. Aspirin may also be given to patients with angina, because it decreases the chances of blood clots forming at the sites of the blockages.

  • A medicine called nitroglycerin (nitro) can widen or dilate the arteries and improve blood flow to your heart. Nitro can be given through a skin patch, pills, an ointment, or a spray.
  • Beta-blockers "block" the chemical or hormonal messages sent to your heart. When you are under physical or emotional stress, your body sends signals to your heart to work harder. Beta-blockers block the effect these signals have on your heart, so they reduce the amount of oxygen your heart demands.
  • Calcium channel blockers can help to keep your arteries open and reduce your blood pressure by relaxing the smooth muscle that surrounds the arteries in your body. The oxygen demand of the heart is also reduced by these medicines.

Percutaneous Interventions and Surgery

Because medicines cannot clear blocked arteries, a severely narrowed coronary artery may need more treatment to reduce the risk of a heart attack. Two major options are available: percutaneous interventions (also called transcatheter interventions) or coronary artery bypass surgery.

Both therapies have good track records among carefully selected patients. The decision to go with either option depends on how much narrowing there is, how many arteries are affected, the location of the narrowing, how much heart muscle is at risk, and individual patient factors, such as age and overall health.

Percutaneous Coronary Interventions

Illustration of balloon angioplasty Angioplasty, which opens narrowed arteries, is performed by interventional cardiologists. They use a long, thin tube called a catheter that has a small balloon on its tip. They inflate the balloon at the blockage site in the artery to flatten the plaque against the artery wall. Angioplasty is also called percutaneous transluminal coronary angioplasty (PTCA).

Here is how the procedure works: A thin wire (called a guide wire) is inserted into an artery in the leg and is guided to the site of narrowing in the coronary artery. The catheter is slipped over this guide wire and positioned at the blockage, where the balloon is inflated. After treatment, the guide wire, catheter, and balloon are removed. The hospital stay and recovery time for angioplasty is shorter than that of bypass. But about 35% of patients are at risk for more blockages in the treated area. This is called restenosis. Restenosis usually happens within 6 months after angioplasty.

A stent procedure is used along with balloon angioplasty. It involves placing a mesh-like metal device into an artery at a site narrowed by plaque. The stent is mounted on a balloon-tipped catheter, threaded through an artery, and positioned at the blockage. The balloon is then inflated, opening the stent. Then, the catheter and deflated balloon are removed, leaving the stent in place. The opened stent keeps the vessel open and stops the artery from collapsing. Restenosis rates with this procedure are generally around 15% to 20%.Illustration of stenting procedure

Because restenosis is a problem with the stent procedure, doctors have been trying to find ways to keep arteries with stents open. Some newer stents are covered with medicines that help keep the artery from closing up again. These are called coated stents or drug-eluting stents.

Atherectomy
may be an option for certain patients who cannot have balloon angioplasty. A high-speed drill on the tip of a catheter is used to shave plaque from the artery walls.

Laser ablation uses a catheter that has a metal or fiberoptic probe on the tip. The laser uses light to "burn" away plaque and open the vessel enough so that a balloon can further widen the opening.

Illustration of percutaneous transmyocardial revascularizationPercutaneous transmyocardial revascularization (PTMR) is performed by a cardiologist in the cardiac catheterization laboratory. After the area is numbed with anesthesia, the cardiologist inserts a catheter in an artery in the leg that leads to the heart. A laser is then fed through the catheter and used to create tiny holes in the heart muscle. These holes become channels for blood to flow to oxygen-starved areas of the heart. Researchers believe that the procedure may cause new vessels to form, reducing the pain of angina. PTMR is currently being used on patients who have not responded to other treatments such as medicines, angioplasty, or coronary artery bypass surgery.


Surgery

Coronary artery bypass surgery involves "bypassing" blood flow around one or more narrowed vessels. To do this, the surgeon removes a vein from the thigh (called the saphenous vein) or uses an artery from the upper part of the chest wall (called the internal mammary artery) to reroute blood flow in the chest. Sometimes, an artery from another area of the body may be used. This surgically removed vessel is called a graft. The graft may be cut into sections for use in routing blood flow around blocked coronary arteries. After making an incision in the chest, the surgeon connects a graft at points above and below the blockage to restore blood flow.

  • Minimally invasive coronary artery bypass is a less invasive bypass surgery technique. The incision is smaller, and the procedure may be done while the heart is still beating. This reduces the risk of complications. The procedure may reduce patient recovery time, which decreases cost. This operation is only used for patients whose blockages can be bypassed through this smaller incision and whose risk of complications is low.

Illustration of transmyocardial laser revascularization

  • Transmyocardial laser revascularization (TMLR) involves the use of a laser to create tiny channels in the lower left chamber of the heart (the left ventricle), which may increase blood flow within the heart. Surgeons make an incision in the left side of the chest. While the heart is still beating, the surgeons use the laser to make between 20 and 40 tiny (one-millimeter-wide) channels through the oxygen-deprived heart muscle and into the left ventricle. These channels give a new route for blood to flow into the heart muscle, which may reduce the pain of angina. TMLR is generally considered less invasive than open heart procedures. It involves only a small incision, and patients usually do not need a blood transfusion. And because the procedure is done on a beating heart, surgeons do not need to use a heart-lung machine. Although the procedure has been approved by the Food and Drug Administration, TMLR is only being used on patients who have not responded to other treatments such as medicines, angioplasty, or coronary artery bypass surgery.
