Potential infectious etiologies of atherosclerosis: a multifactorial perspective.

S O'Connor1, C Taylor, L A Campbell, S Epstein, P Libby.   

Abstract

Coronary heart disease (CHD) contributes substantially to illness and death worldwide. Experimental studies demonstrate that infection can stimulate atherogenic processes. This review presents a spectrum of data regarding the link between CHD and infection. In addition, the need for improved diagnostic tools, the significance of multiple pathogens, and potential intervention strategies are discussed.
