Answer 1

Vascular disease:

1. Vascular disease includes illnesses that affect the circulatory system.
2. They include conditions such as aneurysm, atherosclerosis, heart diseases, stroke, Raynaud's disease, and vasculitis.
3. The risk factors associated with the development of these diseases are age, diabetes, family history, obesity, smoking, and lack of physical exercise.
4. Vascular diseases cannot be inherited, but some hereditary characteristics increase the risk of developing such conditions.
5. The main causes of this disease are the buildup of plaque in the blood vessels and blockages in the blood vessels.
6. A history of vascular diseases in one's family only contributes to increasing the risk but is not solely responsible for the condition.
