Coronary Arterial Function and Disease in Women With No Obstructive Coronary Arteries [PDF]

Circulation Research, 2022
Ischemic heart disease (IHD) is the leading cause of mortality in women. While traditional cardiovascular risk factors play an important role in the development of IHD in women, women may experience sex-specific IHD risk factors and pathophysiology, and thus female-specific risk stratification is needed for IHD prevention, diagnosis, and treatment ...

Single Coronary Artery [PDF]

Texas Heart Institute Journal, 2015
To the Editor: Njeim and colleagues1 reported on a patient in whom the common trunk arising from the right coronary sinus gave rise to all coronary arteries that supplied the myocardium. This anomaly is called single coronary artery. The authors stated that, after the large common trunk, a right coronary artery (RCA) coursed along the ...

Upregulation of 5-hydroxytryptamine receptor signaling in coronary arteries after organ culture. [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2014
5-Hydroxytryptamine (5-HT) is a powerful constrictor of coronary arteries and is considered to be involved in the pathophysiological mechanisms of coronary-artery spasm. However, the mechanism of enhancement of coronary-artery constriction to 5-HT during

A Single Coronary Artery Originating from the Right Coronary Sinus with a Typical Course of the Right Coronary Artery and the Interarterial Course of the Left Main, Left Anterior Descending, and Left Circumflex as an Example of a Rare Case of High-Risk Coronary Anomaly

Diagnostics, 2022
In the typical course of the coronary arteries, the right coronary artery comes from the right coronary sinus and descends in the right atrioventricular groove. The left coronary artery trunk begins from the left coronary sinus.

Localization of coronary bypass targets in hard-to-see coronary arteries

Journal of Cardiothoracic Surgery, 2023
Background Precise identification of coronary arteries and selection of anastomotic sites are critical stages of coronary bypass surgery. Visualization of coronary arteries is occasionally challenging when the heart is covered with a thick layer of fat ...

Coronary arterial spasm in single right coronary artery [PDF]

Journal of Zhejiang University SCIENCE B, 2009
We presented a case of anomalous single-coronary artery detected incidentally during routine coronary angiography. A 32-year-old male Chinese patient presented with recurrent pre-syncope and six episodes of syncope. Coronary angiography and coronary-computed tomography (CT)-angiography performed by a dual-source computed tomography (DSCT) revealed that
