The coronary angiography-derived index of microcirculatory resistance predicts perioperative myocardial injury in stable coronary artery disease patients undergoing PCI. [PDF]
Background: Coronary microvascular dysfunction (CMD) assessed by the index of microcirculatory resistance (IMR) is associated with perioperative myocardial injury (PMI).The angiographically derived index of microcirculatory resistance (caIMR) represents ...

Involvement of Nitric Oxide in Microcirculatory Reactions after Ischemia-Reperfusion of the Rat Urinary Bladder [PDF]
Background: Nitric oxide ( NO) plays a role in inflammation. Our aim was to investigate the role of NO in the microcirculatory changes after ischemia-reperfusion (I/R) of the bladder using intravital videomicroscopy (IVM).

The influence of elective percutaneous coronary intervention on microvascular resistance: a serial assessment using the index of microcirculatory resistance [PDF]
This study investigates whether hyperemic microvascular resistance (MR) is influenced by elective percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) by using the index of microcirculatory resistance (IMR). Seventy-one consecutive patients with stable angina pectoris undergoing elective PCI were prospectively studied.
