A Retrospective Observational Study Examining Physical Activity Among Adults in the United States With Angina or Coronary Heart Disease.

Introduction:  Coronary heart disease (CHD) involves inadequate blood supply to the myocardium by the coronary arteries due to the formation of atherosclerotic plaque in the vessel lumen. It has a complex etiopathogenesis. Physical activity (PA) and exercise lead to vascular remodeling and improved endothelial function, which, in turn, improves the arterial blood supply to the myocardium.
