Genetic Insights Into Coronary Microvascular Disease [PDF]
Coronary microvascular disease (CMVD) affects the coronary pre‐arterioles, arterioles, and capillaries and can lead to blood supply–demand mismatch and cardiac ischemia. CMVD can present clinically as ischemia or myocardial infarction with no obstructive

Novel Biomarkers of Coronary Microvascular Disease [PDF]
Coronary microvascular disease in the absence of myocardial diseases has traditionally been diagnosed through coronary reactivity testing in the cardiac catheterization laboratory. Compared with invasive procedures, blood-based biomarkers may have reduced cost, less risk of physical harm and greater accessibility, making them ideal for an outpatient ...

Coronary Microvascular Disease in Contemporary Clinical Practice [PDF]
Coronary microvascular disease (CMD) causes myocardial ischemia in a variety of clinical scenarios. Clinical practice guidelines support routine testing for CMD in patients with ischemia with nonobstructive coronary artery disease. Invasive testing to identify CMD requires Doppler or thermodilution measures of flow to determine the coronary flow ...

Takotsubo syndrome is a coronary microvascular disease: experimental evidence [PDF]
Background and aims Takotsubo syndrome (TTS) is a conundrum without consensus about the cause. In a murine model of coronary microvascular dysfunction (CMD), abnormalities in myocardial perfusion played a key role in the development of TTS.
