Coronary Microcirculation Dysfunction in Patients With Arterial Hypertension [PDF]
The number of articles regarding microcirculation dysfunction in the literature increases. One should bear them in mind especially in case of patients, who declare typical angina, and in whom during coronary angiography we do not reveal significant lesions in coronary arteries.

Invasive Assessment of Coronary Microcirculation: A State-of-the-Art Review
A significant proportion of patients presenting with signs and symptoms of myocardial ischemia have no “significant” epicardial disease; thereby, the assessment of coronary microcirculation gained an important role in improving diagnosis and guiding ...

Assessment of Coronary Microcirculation in Patients With Takotsubo-Like Left Ventricular Dysfunction
The precise mechanism of takotsubo-like left ventricular (LV) dysfunction remains unclear.Eight consecutive patients with takotsubo-like LV dysfunction were studied. In the acute phase and 3 weeks later, the coronary flow velocity spectrum and coronary flow velocity reserve (CFVR) were recorded by Doppler guidewire.

Coronary microvascular dysfunction (CMD) is the pathological basis and pathogenesis of diabetic cardiomyopathy (DCM). Propylene glycol alginate sodium sulfate (PSS) as heparinoid drug has many biological activities. Here, a novel PSS-loaded nanoparticle (PSS-NP) was prepared to study its effect on the CMD of DCM.

Background: Myocardial ischemia-reperfusion (I/R) injury and coronary microcirculation dysfunction (CMD) are observed in patients with myocardial infarction after vascular recanalization. The antianginal drug trimetazidine has been demonstrated to exert a protective effect in myocardial ischemia-reperfusion injury.
