21. In 1964 he returned to Britain with his young family to teach at the Atheroma Resident Unit in Glasgow. 22. Higher pressures increase heart workload and progression of unhealthy tissue growth ( atheroma ) that develops within the walls of arteries. 23. These capped fatty deposits ( now called'atheromas ') produce enzymes that cause the artery to enlarge over time. 24. Because artery walls enlarge at locations with atheroma , detecting atheroma before death and autopsy has long been problematic at best. 25. Because artery walls enlarge at locations with atheroma, detecting atheroma before death and autopsy has long been problematic at best. 26. Most methods have focused on the openings of arteries; highly relevant, yet totally miss the atheroma within artery walls. 27. TWAR's DNA and proteins keep showing up in atheroma , the fatty, diseased tissue that blocks the coronary arteries. 28. If the fibrous cap separating a soft atheroma from the bloodstream within the artery ruptures, tissue fragments are exposed and released. 29. In effect, the muscular portion of the artery wall forms small aneurysms just large enough to hold the atheroma that are present. 30. Furthermore, a bulge of atheroma may be the cause of turbulent flow, where audible turbulence may be detected with a stethoscope.
