  🫀 Coronary Artery Anatomy Introduction The coronary arteries are vital blood vessels that supply oxygenated blood to the heart muscle (myocardium). Since the heart continuously pumps blood throughout the body, it requires a constant and rich oxygen supply to function effectively. Any obstruction in these arteries can lead to serious cardiac conditions such as angina or myocardial infarction (heart attack). Origin The coronary arteries arise from the ascending aorta , just above the aortic valve , from two openings called the coronary ostia . There are two main coronary arteries: Right Coronary Artery (RCA) Left Coronary Artery (LCA) 1. Right Coronary Artery (RCA) The RCA originates from the right aortic sinus and travels in the right atrioventricular (AV) groove between the right atrium and right ventricle.

Cystic Fibrosis- causes and symptoms

-
Image
Introduction Cystic fibrosis (CF) is a hereditary disorder that primarily affects the lungs and digestive system. It is characterized by the production of abnormally thick and sticky mucus that can clog the airways and obstruct the pancreas. CF is a progressive disease, leading to severe respiratory and digestive problems, and it often results in a shortened lifespan. Causes Cystic fibrosis is caused by mutations in the CFTR (cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator) gene. This gene is responsible for the production of a protein that regulates the movement of salt and water in and out of cells. Mutations in the CFTR gene result in the production of a defective protein, leading to the accumulation of thick mucus in various organs. Symptoms The symptoms of cystic fibrosis can vary widely but commonly include: Respiratory symptoms: Persistent coughing, frequent lung infections (including pneumonia and bronchitis), wheezing, and shortness of breath. Digestive symptoms: Difficu...
