Significant progress has been achieved in reducing this buildup using prescription drugs, surgery, and lifestyle changes. Plaque development may be lowered by eating a diet high in veggies, fruit, and cereal grains, exercising often, and giving up drinking. These drugs, which are often used to lower cholesterol, are useful in avoiding the accumulation of plaque. The goal of vascular endovascular procedures like stent implantation alongside catheterization is to physically clear plaque coming from arteries. Novel surgical approaches are also being explored, including as atherectomy surgery, a catheter-based approach to plaque removal. The treatment of dyslipidemia and its related cardiovascular problems has been improved as a result of these developments in plaque clearance.}, DOI = {} }
