Different definition of microvascular angina [PDF]

open access: yesEuropean Journal of Clinical Investigation, 2015
AbstractWe sometimes encounter patients with microvascular angina (MVA), a disease characterized by anginal pain without abnormal coronary arteriographic findings or coronary spasm. More than 40 years have passed since MVA was first confirmed. The terms ‘syndrome X’, ‘cardiac syndrome X’ and ‘microvascular dysfunction’ have also been used to describe ...

Fluoroscopic methods of assessment of coronary microvascular dysfunction – a review of literature [PDF]

open access: yesБългарска кардиология
A large proportion of patients with angina and evidence of myocardial ischemia do not have obstructive coronary disease. One of the main mechanisms of ischemia/angina with non-obstructive coronary arteries is coronary microvascular dysfunction, which is ...

Combination of Variant and Microvascular Angina [PDF]

open access: yesClinical Cardiology, 2009
AbstractPrinzmetal's variant angina (VA) and cardiac syndrome X (CSX) are two distinct, usually easily recognizable, forms of angina syndromes, caused by epicardial spasm, usually responsible for transient transmural myocardial ischemia at rest and by coronary microvascular dysfunction (CMVD), usually responsible for effort induced subendocardial ...

Plaque Morphology‐Dependent Regression of Tandem Coronary Plaques Under Intensive Lipid‐Lowering Therapy

open access: yesCatheterization and Cardiovascular Interventions, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT We report a 54‐year‐old woman with stable angina who exhibited heterogeneous responses of tandem left anterior descending artery (LAD) plaques to intensive lipid‐lowering therapy. Coronary CT angiography performed at another hospital suggested diffuse disease, and she presented to our clinic for a second opinion.

The invasive investigation of INOCA in the coronary catheterization lab

open access: yesAmerican Heart Journal Plus
Over half of all patients with angina have no angiographically demonstratable obstructive coronary disease, with a significant proportion of these patients having undiagnosed microvascular dysfunction and/or vasospastic angina.

Anxiety Associated With Increased Risk for Emergency Department Recidivism in Patients With Low-Risk Chest Pain [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
Anxiety contributes to the chest pain symptom complex in 30% to 40% of patients with low-risk chest pain seen in the emergency department (ED). The validated Hospital Anxiety Depression Scale-Anxiety subscale (HADS-A) has been used as an anxiety ...

Emulating Six Cardiovascular Outcome Trials of Antidiabetic Drugs in Individuals with Type 2 Diabetes: Analyses Based on Real‐World Databases from Korea and Taiwan

open access: yesClinical Pharmacology &Therapeutics, EarlyView.
With the increasing volume of clinical evidence derived from large‐scale Asian real‐world data (RWD) and the growing interest in its use in regulatory decision‐making, it is important to conduct benchmarking exercises that evaluate whether studies using Asian RWD can generate similar conclusions as randomized controlled trials (RCTs).
