Facts about heart disease, of course. Wikipedia has lots of good information. Get to it...

Chuck Norris can rip a human's heart out with his bare hands, while its still pumping blood!

i would definitely include some facts about heart disease. maybe like how many people have it, what causes it, how many people die from it each year/month/week/day/hour, you know, the basics!
4 :
The epidemiology, who it affects, symptoms, long term effects, procedures known to imporve the condition, medications known to improve the condition, things an individual can do to prevent the problem or slow the onset of the problem.
5 :
I would start out with causes.Then statistics.And then prevention.
6 :
Who is more at risk and why. What tests are done to prove heart disease in patients What kinds of diseases affect the heart and what they can cause What can be done to help people with heart disease Maybe at the end throw in some new things that science is working on that isnt quite done yet to show the route we are taking in medicine
7 :
ummmmm....the facts that you glean from studying heart disease i should think.
8 :
Without knowing specifics, (such as what grade level or class this is for, science vs. health class), I'd say include: what is it what causes it risk factors how many people have it what patients can do current advances in medicine
9 :
Depends on which level you are working at. A web site I like that has alot of info is 'heartsite.com' General info that might give you ideas on your project. Good luck. Maybe you could even arrange an interview with a doc or practiontioner in a cardiology dept or office.!

"The FACT that coronary atherosclerosis gets worse JUST AS FAST or FASTER when cholesterol goes DOWN as when it goes up the OPPOSITE of exposure response should have led scientists to question the whole Lipid Hypothesis - but no one did" - Dr. Uffe Ravnskov

show first the body system affected, causes, signs and symptoms, diagnosis or detection method, then treatment or cure... you can add the history of the disease, statistics, and the function of the system affected(which is the circulatory system) for extra credits...

wikipedia is good

These are the things you should put in your report: INTRODUCTION: (A brief intro about your report) Background Pathophysiology Etiology Epidemiology (Frequency, Mortality/Morbidity, Age, Sex, Race) HISTORY Signs and Symptoms Past medical history Physical findings Causes DIFFERENTIAL DIAGNOSES (different disease that could mimic your topic) WORKUP STUDIES (Supporting studies that could help diagnose your topic) Laboratory Studies Imaging Studies Other Test Procedure TREATMENT Pretreatment Peri treatment Post treatment MEDICATIONS FOLLOWUP That should do it. If you are going to search the net, try to look for articles on eMedicine and you will know what I'm talking about. Their report is very comprehensive
