	Arteriosclerosis (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-20)
		Arteriosclerosis and atherosclerosis involve the buildup of deposits on the insides of the artery walls, which causes thickening and hardening of the arteries.
		In arteriosclerosis, the deposits are composed largely of calcium; in atherosclerosis, the deposits consist of fatty substances.
		Peripheral atherosclerosis, also called arteriosclerosis obliterans, is a type of peripheral vascular disease in which the lower limbs are affected.

	Arteriosclerosis; Treatment, Arteriosclerosis symptoms, Arteriosclerosis diet
		Arteriosclerosis refers to the thickening of the walls of the arteries.
		Arteriosclerosis is usually preceded by atherosclerosis, a kind of fatty infiltration in the inner lining of the blood vessel walls.
		Arteriosclerosis results in the loss of elasticity of the blood vessels and a narrowing of the smaller arteries, which interferes with the free circulation of the blood.

	Arteriosclerosis
		This is has sometimes been called "lead pipe disease." Calcium content is what atherosclerosis and arteriosclerosis have in common, but in atherosclerosis it occurs in concentrations called plaques; in arteriosclerosis it occurs diffusely.
		Atherosclerosis provides the plaque which narrows the artery and arteriosclerosis stiffens the arteries so that they cannot expand with each heart beat to compensate for the blockage caused by plaque formation.
		This potentiation is by virtue of the fact that when plaque develops in the presence of arteriosclerosis, the stiffened and inflexible blood vessel wall does not have the ability to compensate by expanding with the increased blood pressure of each heart beat.

	Atherosclerosis - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Some sources draw a distinction between "Arteriosclerosis", "Atherosclerosis", and "Arteriolosclerosis".
		In these contexts, "Atherosclerosis" is used when referring to larger arteries, and "Arteriolosclerosis" is used when referring to arterioles, with "Arteriosclerosis" used as a parent of both terms.
		Atherosclerosis is commonly referred to as a "hardening" or "furring" of blood vessels, but this is an oversimplification.

	Arteriosclerosis / Atherosclerosis
		Unfortunately, some people with arteriosclerosis or atherosclerosis have no symptoms until one or more arteries are so hardened that they cause a medical emergency.
		Arteriosclerosis and atherosclerosis can occur in arteries anywhere in your body, but the disease most often affects arteries in your heart, brain, kidneys, abdominal aorta and legs.
		In arteriosclerosis, the walls of your arteries become hard and thick, sometimes interfering with blood circulation.
