Comparison of nebivolol versus diltiazem in improving coronary artery spasm and quality of life in patients with hypertension and vasospastic angina: A prospective, randomized, double-blind pilot study.

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2020
BackgroundBeta-blockers are often not the preferred treatment for patients with vasospastic angina. However, nebivolol, beta-blocker with nitric oxide-releasing effect, could theoretically improve coronary vasospasm.

Haemodynamic characterisation of different endotypes in coronary artery vasospasm in reaction to acetylcholine

open access: yesInternational Journal of Cardiology: Heart & Vasculature, 2022
Background: Vasoreactivity testing with high-dose acetylcholine is considered vasospasm provocation and low-dose as endothelial function testing. Aims: To assess the changes in reaction to low- and high-dose acetylcholine in the endotypes of CAS as ...

A case report and literature review of myocardial infarction with nonobstructive coronary arteries (MINOCA) possibly due to acute coronary vasospasm induced by misoprostol

open access: yesFrontiers in Cardiovascular Medicine, 2023
Coronary artery vasospasm (CVS), an uncommon cause of acute chest pain, can be provoked by vasoconstriction-induced medications. Misoprostol, a prostaglandin analog, is a safe medication to terminate a pregnancy.

Coronary Artery Vasospasm [PDF]

open access: yesKorean Circulation Journal, 2018
Coronary artery vasospasm (CVS) is an important mechanism of myocardial ischemia and produces any of the manifestations of coronary artery disease from silent myocardial ischemia, to effort-induced angina and variant angina, to acute coronary syndrome including myocardial infarction or sudden cardiac death.

Coronary vasospasm: A narrative review

open access: yesWorld Journal of Cardiology, 2021
Coronary artery vasospasm (CAVS) plays an important role in acute chest pain syndrome caused by transient and partial or complete occlusion of the coronary arteries. Pathophysiology of the disease remains incompletely understood, with autonomic and endothelial dysfunction thought to play an important role.

Severe coronary vasospasm

open access: yesRevista Portuguesa de Cardiologia (English Edition), 2012
A 50-year-old man, with chronic kidney disease and on dialysis, underwent coronary angiography in the context of acute coronary syndrome, which revealed focal lesions (type A) in the proximal left anterior descending and mid circumflex arteries. Ad-hoc angioplasty was performed on both lesions with direct stenting.

Relief of vasospasm with fasudil after off-pump coronary artery bypass grafting: a case study

open access: yesSurgical Case Reports, 2018
Background Coronary vasospasm after coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG) is a rare but potentially lethal complication. It is often refractory to several vasodilators.

Does Coronary Vasospasm Show a Better Prognosis in Out of Hospital Cardiac Arrest: Data from the Korean Cardiac Arrest Research Consortium (KoCARC) Registry

open access: yesAnatolian Journal of Cardiology, 2022
Background: Previous cohort studies focused on relative risk stratification among patients diagnosed with vasospastic angina, and it is unknown how much vasospasm accounts for the cause of out-of-hospital cardiac arrest, and whether prognosis differs ...
