Coronary Microvascular Disease

open access: yesTextbook of Vascular Medicine, 2019
Abnormalities in the function and structure of the coronary microcirculation can occur in the absence of obstructive coronary artery disease (CAD). In clinical practice, a significant proportion of patients with chest pain do not have obstructive CAD, and approximately 30–50% of these patients are believed to have coronary microvascular disease (CMD ...

Coronary microvascular dysfunction and inflammation: Insights from the Coronary Microvascular Disease Registry.

Cardiovascular Revascularization Medicine
BACKGROUND Coronary microvascular dysfunction (CMD) is associated with various inflammatory conditions that worsen endothelial dysfunction. This study aimed to investigate the relationship between CMD and inflammation using common inflammatory markers ...

Understanding Patient Characteristics and Coronary Microvasculature: Early Insights from the Coronary Microvascular Disease Registry.

American Journal of Cardiology, 2023
Coronary angiography has limitations in accurately assessing the coronary microcirculation. A new comprehensive invasive hemodynamic assessment method utilizing coronary flow reserve (CFR) and the index of microvascular resistance (IMR) offers improved ...

Coronary microvascular disease: The “Meeting Point” of Cardiology, Rheumatology and Endocrinology

European Journal of Clinical Investigation, 2021
Exertional chest pain/dyspnea or chest pain at rest are the main symptoms of coronary artery disease (CAD), which are traditionally attributed to insufficiency of the epicardial coronary arteries.

Coronary microvascular dysfunction in patients with stable coronary artery disease: The CE-MARC 2 coronary physiology sub-study [PDF]

open access: yesInternational Journal of Cardiology, 2018
In patients with angina undergoing invasive management, no obstructive coronary artery disease (NOCAD) is a common finding, and angina may persist following percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI). Coronary microvascular dysfunction may be relevant.

Haemodynamic and metabolic adaptations in coronary microvascular disease

Heart, 2023
Objective We aimed to evaluate the microcirculatory resistance (MR) and myocardial metabolic adaptations at rest and in response to increased cardiac workload in patients with suspected coronary microvascular dysfunction (CMD). Methods Patients with

Coronary Microvascular Disease in Hypertensives

Clinical and Experimental Hypertension. Part A: Theory and Practice, 1992
Arterial hypertension can badly affect coronary circulation through several mechanisms that are not mutually exclusive, namely, coronary artery disease, left ventricular hypertrophy, and microvascular disease. Theoretical and experimental data suggest that coronary microvascular disease may exist in hypertensives, in whom it can cause both a reduction ...

Coronary microvascular abnormalities in Chagas' disease

American Heart Journal, 1996
Diffuse, multifocal myocytolytic necrosis is one of the most conspicuous histomorphologic finding in both acute and chronic chagasic cardiomyopathy. This morphologic change alone, however, is not specific. Its morphologic character is similar to the micronecrosis observed in a great number of cardiac diseases, particularly the idiopathic ...
