hippocampus is decreased. This is an enzyme that is required in order for acetylcholine (a memory neurotransmitter) to be synthesized‚ making the decrease in choline acetyltransferase enzymes quantitatively related to a large number of neuritic plaques (Grossman & Porth‚ 2014).

NSTEMI and STEMI begins with atherosclerosis which happens when a plaque known as atherosclerotic plaque is formed from years of cholesterol deposits within the artery wall. When this ruptures the platelets clump together to form a blood clot known as a thrombus in a coronary artery (Badimon‚ Padro & Vilahur 2012‚ p. 60). The obstruction

The buildup of plaque occurs over many years. Coronary artery disease often develops over decades going unnoticed‚ until you have
