Fractional flow reserve versus angiography in guiding management to optimize outcomes in non–ST-elevation myocardial infarction (FAMOUS-NSTEMI): rationale and design of a randomized controlled clinical trial [PDF]
<p>Background: In patients with acute non–ST-elevation myocardial infarction (NSTEMI), coronary arteriography is usually recommended; but visual interpretation of the angiogram is subjective.

A randomized, placebo-controlled trial of late Na current inhibition (ranolazine) in coronary microvascular dysfunction (CMD): impact on angina and myocardial perfusion reserve. [PDF]
AimsThe mechanistic basis of the symptoms and signs of myocardial ischaemia in patients without obstructive coronary artery disease (CAD) and evidence of coronary microvascular dysfunction (CMD) is unclear.

Fractional flow reserve-guided management in stable coronary disease and acute myocardial infarction: recent developments [PDF]
Coronary artery disease (CAD) is a leading global cause of morbidity and mortality, and improvements in the diagnosis and treatment of CAD can reduce the health and economic burden of this condition.

Exertional chest pain is sometimes more than just coronary atherosclerosis
Clinical case: A 64-year-old male, with cardiovascular risk factors and previous history of bilateral carpal tunnel syndrome, presented with exertional retrosternal pain. The resting echocardiogram was unremarkable.

Liraglutide and Cardiovascular Outcomes in Type 2 Diabetes [PDF]
Background The cardiovascular effect of liraglutide, a glucagon-like peptide 1 analogue, when added to standard care in patients with type 2 diabetes, remains unknown. Methods In this double-blind trial, we randomly assigned patients with type 2 diabetes

BackgroundCoronary microvascular dysfunction can be responsible for both stable angina and acute coronary syndrome (ACS). There are scarce data, however, about comparisons of clinical characteristics and outcomes of these 2 groups of patients.Materials ...

Systemic microvascular dysfunction in microvascular and vasospastic angina [PDF]
Coronary microvascular dysfunction and/or vasospasm are potential causes of ischaemia in patients with no obstructive coronary artery disease (INOCA). We tested the hypothesis that these patients also have functional abnormalities in peripheral small arteries.Patients were prospectively enrolled and categorised as having microvascular angina (MVA ...
