Effect of Varying Hemodynamic and Vascular Conditions on Fractional Flow Reserve: An In Vitro Study

Journal of the American Heart Association: Cardiovascular and Cerebrovascular Disease, 2016
BackgroundThe aim of this study was to investigate the impact of varying hemodynamic conditions on fractional flow reserve (ratio of pressure distal [Pd] and proximal [Pa] to stenosis under hyperemia) in an in vitro setting.

Encasement of the left anterior descending coronary artery: association with Takotsubo syndrome, and diagnostic and therapeutic options

Global Cardiology, 2023
Myocardial bridging is a rare event, which leads to chest pain, arrhythmias and discussable Takotsubo syndrome (cardiomyopathy). We enrolled 41 patients (33 females, mean age 68.4 years), the majority of whom had Takotsubo cardiomyopathy in any form ...

Coronary Microcirculation Downstream Non‐Infarct‐Related Arteries in the Subacute Phase of Myocardial Infarction: Implications for Physiology‐Guided Revascularization

Journal of the American Heart Association: Cardiovascular and Cerebrovascular Disease, 2019
Background Concerns exist about reliability of pressure‐wire‐guided coronary revascularization of non‐infarct‐related arteries (non‐IRA). We investigated whether physiological assessment of non‐IRA during the subacute phase of myocardial infarction might
