Fractional flow reserve: current status [PDF]

open access: yesКардіохірургія та інтервенційна кардіологія, 2019
Since the introduction of the fractional flow reserve (FFR) into clinical practice more than 20 years ago, revascularization controlled by the measurement of physiological parameters has become routine.

Invasive coronary physiology in patients with angina and non-obstructive coronary artery disease: a consensus document from the coronary microvascular dysfunction workstream of the British Heart Foundation/National Institute for Health Research Partnership [PDF]

open access: yes, 2022
Nearly half of all patients with angina have non-obstructive coronary artery disease (ANOCA); this is an umbrella term comprising heterogeneous vascular disorders, each with disparate pathophysiology and prognosis.

Improvement of Fractional Flow Reserve after Percutaneous Coronary Intervention Does Not Necessarily Indicate Increased Coronary Flow [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
Coronary flow is expected to increase by epicardial lesion modification after successful percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) in stable angina. According to the concept of fractional flow reserve (FFR), the improvement in FFR after PCI reflects the ...

Evolution from increased cardiac mechanical function towards cardiomyopathy in the obese rat due to unbalanced high fat and abundant equilibrated diets

open access: yesOilseeds and fats, crops and lipids, 2015
The aim of our study was to know whether high dietary energy intake (HDEI) with equilibrated and unbalanced diets in term of lipid composition modify the fatty acid profile of cardiac phospholipids and function of various cardiac cells and to know if the
