Advances in Coronary Microvascular Dysfunction

open access: yesHeart, 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 ...

Microvascular Dysfunction in the Spectrum of Coronary Instability

open access: yesThe 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 ...

[Coronary microvascular dysfunction. An update].

open access: yesRecenti progressi in medicina, 2011
Several studies in the last years have shown that a dysfunction of coronary microcirculation may be responsible for abnormalities in coronary blood flow and some clinical pictures. Coronary microvascular dysfunction, in absence of other coronary artery abnormalities, can cause anginal symptoms, resulting in a condition named microvascular angina (MVA).

Coronary microvascular dysfunction in diabetes mellitus

open access: yesJournal of International Medical Research, 2017
The significance, mechanisms and consequences of coronary microvascular dysfunction associated with diabetes mellitus are topics into which we have insufficient insight at this time.

Body Composition, Coronary Microvascular Dysfunction, and Future Risk of Cardiovascular Events Including Heart Failure

JACC Cardiovascular Imaging, 2023
BACKGROUND Body mass index (BMI) is a controversial marker of cardiovascular prognosis, especially in women. Coronary microvascular dysfunction (CMD) is prevalent in obese patients and a better discriminator of risk than BMI, but its association with ...

Coronary Microvascular Dysfunction in Patients With Heart Failure: Characterization of Patterns in HFrEF Versus HFpEF

Circulation: Heart Failure, 2023
BACKGROUND: Coronary microvascular dysfunction (CMD) is involved in heart failure (HF) onset and progression, independently of HF phenotype and obstructive coronary artery disease.

Prognostic Impact of Coronary Microvascular Dysfunction According to Different Patterns by Invasive Physiologic Indexes in Symptomatic Patients With Intermediate Coronary Stenosis

Circulation. Cardiovascular Interventions, 2023
Background: Coronary microvascular dysfunction is a clinically significant component of ischemic heart disease. There can be heterogenous patterns of coronary microvascular dysfunction defined by invasive physiologic indexes such as coronary flow reserve

Coronary microembolization and microvascular dysfunction

International Journal of Cardiology, 2018
Plaque erosion, fissuring or rupture occurs spontaneously or during coronary interventions. At some residual blood flow, the atherothrombotic debris is washed into the coronary microcirculation, causing physical obstruction, vasoconstriction, inflammation and ultimately microinfarction.

Skeletal muscle adiposity, coronary microvascular dysfunction, and adverse cardiovascular outcomes.

European Heart Journal
BACKGROUND AND AIMS Skeletal muscle (SM) fat infiltration, or intermuscular adipose tissue (IMAT), reflects muscle quality and is associated with inflammation, a key determinant in cardiometabolic disease.

Coronary microvascular dysfunction and its role in heart failure with preserved ejection fraction for future prevention and treatment

American Journal of Preventive Cardiology
Highlights • Coronary microvascular dysfunction may play a role in development of HFpEF.• Common cardiometabolic risk factors contributing ot HfpEF create a pro-inflammatory environment that leads to endothelial dysfunction and improper regulation of ...
