Arterial Remodeling in Smokers (TCA)

Response-to-injury in Patients Undergoing Transradial Coronary Angiography: Arterial Remodeling in Smokers

Cigarette smoking is the most important modifiable cardiovascular risk factor leading to endothelial dysfunction and was suggested to impair arterial regeneration.The aim of the study was to investigate the effect of smoking on vascular response to transradial coronary angiography (TCA).
