    <h1>Stable angina (angina pectoris)</h1>
    Stable angina is a medical condition that affects the heart. The
    most common causes are atherosclerosis and spasms of the
    epicardial artery. Typical symptoms include:
    <ul>
      <li>chest discomfort</li>
      <li>feeling of tightness, heaviness, or pain in the chest</li>
    </ul>
    Both stable angina and a heart attack result in chest pain, but
    a heart attack will have chest pain lasting at least
    10 minutes at rest, repeated episodes of chest pain at rest
    lasting 5 or more minutes, or an accelerating pattern of chest
    discomfort (episodes that are more frequent, severe,
    longer in duration, and precipitated by minimal exertion).
    <br>
    Risk factors for stable angina include:
    <ul>
      <li>Age</li>
      <li>Gender</li>
      <li>Systolic blood pressure</li>
      <li>Smoking</li>
      <li>Total cholesterol and/or cholesterol:HDL ratio</li>
      <li>Coronary artery disease</li>
    </ul>
    The initial treatment for stable angina is usually drug therapy
    with aspirin, beta blockers, ACE inhibitors, and/or nitroglycerine.
    Future episodes of stable angina can sometimes be prevented by
    stopping smoking, weight management, and increased physical activity.
