Increased dose of adenosine and the relationship between the resting full-cycle ratio and fractional flow reserve [PDF]
Background: Intermediate coronary artery stenosis can be evaluated with fractional flow reserve (FFR) and resting full-cycle ratio (RFR) to determine if the stenosis is functionally significant.

Comparison of Nitroglycerin-Induced Pressure Ratio Drop and Resting Full-Cycle Ratio in a Pressure Wire Study. [PDF]
Background/Objectives: The acute drop in distal coronary pressure (Pd)-to-aortic pressure (Pa) ratio after intracoronary nitroglycerin (NTG-Pd/Pa) administration is an acceptable estimate of fractional flow reserve (FFR). We aimed to compare the diagnostic performance of NTG-Pd/Pa with that of the resting full-cycle ratio (RFR) in predicting the binary

Usefulness of the Hybrid RFR-FFR Approach: Results of a Prospective and Multicenter Analysis of Diagnostic Agreement between RFR and FFR—The RECOPA (REsting Full-Cycle Ratio Comparation versus Fractional Flow Reserve (A Prospective Validation)) Study [PDF]
Background. The resting full‐cycle ratio (RFR) is a novel resting index which in contrast to the gold standard (fractional flow reserve (FFR)) does not require maximum hyperemia induction.

Differential Impact of Renal Function on the Diagnostic Performance of Resting Full-Cycle Ratio in Patients With Renal Dysfunction. [PDF]
Background: Physiological assessments using fractional flow reserve (FFR) and resting full-cycle ratio (RFR) have been recommended for revascularization decision making. Previous studies have shown a 20% rate of discordance between FFR and RFR. In this context, the correlation between RFR and FFR in patients with renal dysfunction remains unclear. This

Quantitative flow ratio (QFR) is a novel angiography-derived index aimed to assess the functional relevance of coronary stenoses without pressure wires and adenosine. Good diagnostic yield with the hyperemic fractional flow reserve (FFR) have been reported, while data on the comparison of QFR to non-hyperemic pressure ratios (NHPR) are scarce.In this ...

Microvascular resistance reserve: insights into discordant resting and hyperemic epicardial coronary physiology [PDF]
IntroductionDiscordance between resting and hyperemic epicardial physiology is commonbut mechanistically unclear. Microvascular resistance reserve (MRR), a novelindex of vasodilatory capacity, may provide insight.
