“I think of xanthelasma as a potential external clue to an internal risk profile, not as proof that someone has coronary artery disease.”
What Dr. Adedapo Iluyomade has said
“In an overdose, how someone gets to cardiac arrest depends on the drug involved... stimulants such as cocaine or methamphetamine can "directly overwork the cardiovascular system, triggering life-threatening heart rhythms, coronary artery spasm, heart attack or extreme elevations in blood pressure," whereas opioids such as fentanyl can "suppress, or even stop, breathing, causing oxygen levels to fall and eventually lead to cardiac arrest."”
