Randomized, crossover, controlled trial on the modulation of cardiac coronary sinus hemodynamics to develop a new treatment for microvascular disease: Protocol of the MACCUS trial

Frontiers in Cardiovascular Medicine, 2023
BackgroundMicrovascular angina (MVA) is a frequent condition for which our understanding of the disease pathophysiology and therapeutic perspectives remain unsatisfactory.

Cutaneous and coronary flow reserve in patients with microvascular angina

, 1992
Microvascular angina is characterized by exercise-induced angina in patients with normal coronary arteries and reduced coronary flow reserve. Recently, a generalized disorder of abnormal vascular reactivity in microvascular angina has been postulated ...

Coronary endothelial function testing may improve long-term quality of life in subjects with microvascular coronary endothelial dysfunction

Open Heart, 2019
Aim Angina pectoris in the absence of obstructive coronary artery disease (CAD) is common and is associated with poor quality of life (QOL). Coronary microvascular endothelial dysfunction is associated with myocardial ischaemia and is a common cause of ...

Wpływ rehabilitacji kardiologicznej na wydolność fizyczną i perfuzję mięśnia sercowego u kobiet z chorobą drobnych naczyń wieńcowych

, 2016
Background: Cardiac syndrome X (CSX) is linked with changes in microcirculation, without significant changes in main coronary vessels. According to European Society of Cardiology 2013 stable coronary artery disease (CAD) criteria, CSX was replaced by ...

Sex-Specific Factors in Microvascular Angina [PDF]

Canadian Journal of Cardiology, 2014
In women presenting for evaluation of suspected ischemic symptoms, a diagnosis of normal coronary arteries is 5 times more common than it is in men. These women are often labelled as having cardiac syndrome X, and a subset of them have microvascular angina caused by microvascular coronary dysfunction (MCD).

Complete Blood Count-Derived Indices as Prognostic Factors of 5-Year Outcomes in Patients With Confirmed Coronary Microvascular Spasm

Frontiers in Cardiovascular Medicine, 2022
BackgroundCoronary microcirculatory dysfunction is a meaningful factor in the development of ischemic heart disease. We investigated the relationship between coronary microvascular spasm and complete blood count indices.MethodsBetween 2010 and 2013, we ...

Microvascular Angina or “Vis a Tergo”

Journal of the American College of Cardiology, 2010
Cannon ([1][1]) has drawn attention to the high prevalence of ischemia-type chest pain with normal coronary angiograms in older women in the CASS (Coronary Artery Surgery Study) and WISE (Women's Ischemia Syndrome Evaluation) studies, and referred to this as microvascular angina.

Reappraisal of Ischemic Heart Disease: Fundamental Role of Coronary Microvascular Dysfunction in the Pathogenesis of Angina Pectoris [PDF]

, 2018
In recent years, it has become apparent that coronary microvascular dysfunction plays a pivotal pathogenic role in angina pectoris. Functional and structural mechanisms can affect the physiological function of the coronary microvasculature and lead to ...

Treatment of Angina and Microvascular Coronary Dysfunction [PDF]

Current Treatment Options in Cardiovascular Medicine, 2010
Microvascular coronary dysfunction (MCD) is an increasingly recognized cause of cardiac ischemia and angina that is diagnosed more commonly in women. Patients with MCD present with the triad of persistent chest pain, ischemic changes on stress testing, and no obstructive coronary artery disease on cardiac catheterization.

Coronary Sinus Reducer: History, Current Applications, and Future Perspectives

Reviews in Cardiovascular Medicine
The coronary sinus reducer (CSR) is a percutaneous device designed to improve coronary blood flow and alleviate symptoms of refractory angina in patients with severe coronary artery disease (CAD) who are unsuitable for revascularization therapy.
