Detailed explanation-1: -Arterial thrombosis is a blood clot in an artery, which can be very serious because it can stop blood reaching important organs.
Detailed explanation-2: -Coronary thrombosis is a blockage of an artery in the heart, which can lead to a heart attack.
Detailed explanation-3: -Ischaemic strokes are the most common type of stroke. They happen when a blood clot blocks the flow of blood and oxygen to the brain. These blood clots typically form in areas where the arteries have been narrowed or blocked over time by fatty deposits (plaques).
Detailed explanation-4: -Thrombotic strokes are strokes caused by a thrombus (blood clot) that develops in the arteries supplying blood to the brain. This type of stroke is usually seen in older persons, especially those with high cholesterol and atherosclerosis (a buildup of fat and lipids inside the walls of blood vessels) or diabetes.
