Responses to stimulation of coronary and carotid baroreceptors and the coronary chemoreflex at different ventricular distending pressures in anaesthetised dogs [PDF]
Stimulation of left ventricular mechanoreceptors was believed not only to exert important effects on the circulation, but also to influence the responses to baroreceptor reflexes.

Coronary Collateral Circulation [PDF]
AbstractThe occurrence and influence of coronary collateral circulation and obstruction of the supplying coronary arteries on left ventricular contractility, prevalence of myocardial infarction, and bicycle exercise ergometer test were studied in a random sample of 286 patients with angiographically documented coronary artery disease.

Impaired coronary blood flow at higher heart rates during atrial fibrillation: investigation via multiscale modelling [PDF]
Background. Different mechanisms have been proposed to relate atrial fibrillation (AF) and coronary flow impairment, even in absence of relevant coronary artery disease (CAD). However, the underlying hemodynamics remains unclear.

Stable coronary syndromes: pathophysiology, diagnostic advances and therapeutic need [PDF]
The diagnostic management of patients with angina pectoris typically centres on the detection of obstructive epicardial CAD, which aligns with evidence-based treatment options that include medical therapy and myocardial revascularisation.

Coronary artery endothelial dysfunction is positively correlated with low density lipoprotein and inversely correlated with high density lipoprotein subclass particles measured by nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy. [PDF]
OBJECTIVE: The association between cholesterol and endothelial dysfunction remains controversial. We tested the hypothesis that lipoprotein subclasses are associated with coronary endothelial dysfunction.

Biomarkers of coronary endothelial health: correlation with invasive measures of collateral function, flow and resistance in chronically occluded coronary arteries and the effect of recanalization [PDF]
Objectives: In the presence of a chronically occluded coronary artery, the collateral circulation matures by a process of arteriogenesis; however, there is considerable variation between individuals in the functional capacity of that collateral network ...
