Low-grade endotoxemia and NOX-2 in patients with coronary microvascular angina.
BACKGROUND Endothelial dysfunction and oxidative stress were hypothesized to be involved in the pathogenesis of coronary microvascular angina (MVA). NADPH oxidase-2 (NOX2) activation could provoke increased oxidative stress and endothelial dysfunction ...

Microvascular angina: angina that predominantly affects women [PDF]
In women receiving evaluation for suspected ischemic symptoms, a "normal" diagnosis is five times more common than it is in men. These women are often labeled as having cardiac syndrome X, also known as microvascular angina (MVA). MVA is defined as angina pectoris caused by abnormalities of the small coronary arteries, and is characterized by effort ...

Coronary Microvascular Dysfunction, Microvascular Angina, and Management [PDF]
Recent analyses have found that coronary microvascular dysfunction (CMD) portends a poor prognosis in patients with and without obstructive epicardial coronary artery disease (CAD). Chest pain in the absence of epicardial CAD is a common entity. Angina caused by CMD, microvascular angina (MVA), is often indistinguishable from that caused by obstructive

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 ...

The current gold standard for diagnosis of coronary microvascular dysfunction (CMD) in the absence of myocardial diseases, whose clinical manifestation is microvascular angina (MVA), is reactivity testing using adenosine or acetylcholine during coronary ...
