What do those cardiologists say? That fat in the blood (triglycerides) causes atherosclerosis? Or dietary fat? Very different things. Regarding the mechanism of atheroma formation, I don't have a list of references handy, but maybe this is a good start: https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC3152836/ https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC3152836/ Also of interest would be the role of high insulin and/or glucose and the damage they can cause to the arterial walls (inflammation is a necessary condition in the formation of atheroma).
