Coronary heart disease continues to be the leading cause of death in the United States. Current attempts to treat atherosclerosis and coronary artery disease often involve pharmaceutical and surgical treatments. While these treatments are successful in managing the pain from coronary heart disease, they do little to prevent or stop it. There are a number of clinical strategies that are currently being researched to treat atherosclerosis through HDL-increasing therapies. These clinical studies have shown positive effects through nutritional intervention, exercise, stress reduction, and tobacco and alcohol cessation. These treatment options are explored in greater detail, including their potential to halt and even reverse atherosclerosis. The results from these recent studies and how they relate to the mechanism of reverse cholesterol transport are also critically examined. Reverse cholesterol transport is a multistep process resulting in the net movement of cholesterol from peripheral tissues back to the liver via the plasma. The mechanism of reverse cholesterol transport is also further explored in this review.

The article presents the results of an experimental test of the author's program of psychocorrection of emotional states of elderly women with coronary heart disease. The main psychophysiological indicators of the emotional state of elderly women, which affect the development of coronary heart disease, are determined. These include: alexithymia, depression, openness, anxiety, neuroticism, sociability, emotional lability. The following methods of processing the obtained results were chosen, in view of the small number of respondents: Spearman's rank correlation method, Student's T-test; T - Wilcoxon test). Methods used: "Toronto Alexithymic Scale", "Hamilton Scale for Depression", "Hamilton Scale for Anxiety", "Asthenic Scales", "Neuropsychiatric Stress Questionnaire", "Aggression Questionnaire", "FR Questionnaire , according to theoretically determined indicators of the emotional sphere of elderly women with coronary heart disease. It was found that for psychophysiological indicators of depression, anxiety, neuroticism, openness, emotional lability, significance was recorded using Wilcoxon's T-test, which indicates that the change in these indicators occurred as a result of our method with a probability of more than 99%. It is noted that the level of psychophysiological indicators of alexithymia and sociability did not change significantly. We explain the weak influence of the proposed method on these indicators by objective factors. Correction of alexithymia should include a focus on the patient's awareness of their feelings and the ability to express them and should be carried out on the patient comprehensively and over a long period of time. We have identified an important cause of coronary heart disease in elderly women, which is a combination of elevated levels of negative emotions with an intense tendency to suppress their expression in social contacts and interpersonal interaction. The effectiveness of the correctional program has been proved, which can be further used by psychologists as a psychocorrectional component of the general set of measures during outpatient treatment of coronary heart disease and its psychoprophylaxis. We see the prospect of further research in the improvement of the author's comprehensive program, expansion of its corrective spectrum of action and further testing.

Cardiovascular disease, including coronary heart disease (CHD), is the leading cause of death among elderly adults across many European countries. In 2005, the Clinic of Cardiology, Hospital of Lithuanian University of Health Sciences (former Kaunas University of Medicine), started to gather the clinical data of patients with acute and chronic coronary syndromes according to the standards set by the Cardiology Audit and Registration Data Standards Project. The aim of our study was to evaluate one-year mortality after inpatient treatment for acute and chronic coronary syndromes in different risk groups. Material and methods. A total of 3268 patients who were treated for coronary heart disease - acute myocardial infarction, unstable angina, stable angina – at the Clinic of Cardiology, Hospital of Lithuanian University of Health Sciences (former Kaunas University of Medicine) in 2005 were randomly selected. Clinical data of the patients were collected by means of a standardized questionnaire. After one year, 1908 patients were reexamined, and predominant symptoms, treatment during one-year period, outcomes were evaluated. Results. Multiple logistic regression analysis revealed that one-year mortality after acute coronary syndromes was most influenced by age of 70–80 years, history of stroke, Killip class III-IV, and reduced high-density lipoprotein cholesterol levels. For patients who were treated for chronic coronary syndromes, reduced EF (<40%) and increased heart rate (>70 beats per minute) were the strongest independent predictors of one-year mortality. Conclusion. A scoring system for the assessment of mortality risk within one year for patients with acute and chronic coronary syndromes was constructed, which could be useful for cardiologists as well as family physicians for risk evaluation in inpatient and outpatient settings.

The article highlights the results of an empirical study of the psychological components of the emotional state of elderly women with coronary heart disease (CHD), which covered 135 respondents aged 65 to 75 years with coronary heart disease. The aim of the study was to study the psychological components of emotional states of elderly women that can affect the manifestations and course of coronary heart disease, in particular, alexithymia, anxiety, depression, asthenia. It was found that the components of psycho-emotional states of patients with coronary heart disease consist of a set of psychophysiological factors, including: the specifics of emotionally negative states such as anxiety, depression, asthenia, hostility, etc., and the features of the somatic state, themselves manifestations of coronary heart disease and their concomitant changes in the psycho-emotional sphere, in particular the specifics of the traumatic situation for the patient and her personal characteristics. An empirical study found that elderly women with coronary heart disease are characterized by high levels of anxiety, depression, asthenia, mental stress, irritability, suspicion, resentment, neuroticism, secrecy, emotional lability. It is empirically proven that depending on the gender of an individual with coronary heart disease, the psychological components of emotional states differ significantly. It has been studied that women with coronary heart disease have a high level of lability and unstable emotional state. It is established that the emotional state changes rapidly depending on the factors of external and internal stimuli. A labile emotional state is a sign of danger in a person's psychological state, so it can be critical for women with coronary heart disease. Due to the qualitative processing of the obtained results, we found that in the three formed samples - CG, ECG and ECG, the results of the study differed significantly. In the experimental group of men there are no such psycho-emotional phenomena as negativism, irritation, suspicion, resentment and guilt; neuroticism. The results of the control group revealed a high percentage of women at risk. In the experimental group of women, which is the main goal of our study, the outlined phenomena had the highest rate. A number of emotions that contribute to coronary heart disease were identified: dissatisfaction with work, education, life in general; experiencing creative failures, defeats in ambitious desires; insult; frustration caused by the sharp destruction of the usual stereotype of life; constant feeling of inner tension; lack of satisfaction in achieving success; fear; chronic anxiety. From this list of feelings it is clear that they all belong to the register of negative feelings, those that create emotional discomfort. All these feelings are antipodes of feelings that are traditionally considered attributes of a healthy heart, such as: love, courage, courage, joy. The above conditions are special for people with coronary heart disease and have significant differences between male and female groups, and therefore they can be considered as psychophysiological features of elderly women with coronary heart disease. Prospects for further research may be the feasibility of creating a comprehensive program of psychocorrection of emotional states of elderly women with coronary heart disease.
