Coronary Microvascular Dysfunction [PDF]
Arteriosclerosis, Thrombosis, and Vascular Biology, 2021 Over the past couple of decades, accumulating evidence has shown that structural and functional abnormalities of coronary microvasculature are highly prevalent, associated with adverse clinical outcomes in patients with various cardiovascular diseases. The term coronary microvascular dysfunction (CMD) has been coined to refer to this clinical condition

Coronary microvascular dysfunction [PDF]
Minerva Cardioangiologica, 2020 Patients with coronary microvascular dysfunction (CMVD) represent a widespread population and despite the good prognosis, many of them have a poor quality of life with strong limitations in their daily activities because of the angina symptoms.

Inflammation in Coronary Microvascular Dysfunction [PDF]
International Journal of Molecular Sciences, 2021 Chronic low-grade inflammation is involved in coronary atherosclerosis, presenting multiple clinical manifestations ranging from asymptomatic to stable angina, acute coronary syndrome, heart failure and sudden cardiac death. Coronary microvasculature consists of vessels with a diameter less than 500 μm, whose potential structural and functional ...

Coronary microvascular dysfunction: an update [PDF]
European Heart Journal, 2013 Many patients undergoing coronary angiography because of chest pain syndromes, believed to be indicative of obstructive atherosclerosis of the epicardial coronary arteries, are found to have normal angiograms. In the past two decades, a number of studies have reported that abnormalities in the function and structure of the coronary microcirculation may

Coronary Microvascular Dysfunction and Microvascular Angina [PDF]
International Journal of Cardiovascular Practice, 2019 Many patients present with myocardial ischemic symptoms, but fail to be diagnosed of obstructed coronary artery disease, since the normal coronary arteries or no any atherosclerosis stenosis ≥ 50% at coronary angiography. Myocardial ischemia can be caused by either abnormalities of epicardial coronary arteries or coronary microvascular dysfunction (CMD)

Coronary microvascular dysfunction equivalent to left main coronary artery disease
Türk Kardiyoloji Derneği Arşivi, 2017 Coronary microvascular dysfunction, also known as cardiac syndrome X, is a clinical syndrome presenting with typical angina and evidence of myocardial ischemia in the absence of flow-limiting stenosis on coronary angiography. Of patients undergoing

Advances in Coronary Microvascular Dysfunction
Heart, Lung and Circulation, 2009 Considerable focus has been directed towards coronary arterial disease in the management of coronary heart disease, however the coronary microcirculation plays a major role in the regulation of coronary blood flow. Thus while we have multiple medical and revascularisation therapies to treat large vessel coronary artery disease, therapies directed ...

Coronary Microvascular Dysfunction: A Guide for Clinicians
The American Journal of MedicineDysfunction of the coronary microvasculature has become increasingly recognized as an important mechanism of myocardial ischemia in patients without obstructive coronary artery disease. The causes and management of coronary microvascular dysfunction remain poorly understood and are still largely based on extrapolation of epicardial coronary artery ...

Microvascular Dysfunction in the Spectrum of Coronary Instability
The American Journal of Cardiology, 2011 The term "coronary instability" commonly refers to the sequence of events that lead from plaque erosion or rupture to the occurrence of acute coronary syndromes (ACS). However, evidence indicates that coronary microvascular dysfunction plays a relevant pathophysiologic and prognostic role in the setting of ACS, both in ST-segment elevation myocardial ...
