Myocardial Ischemia — Silent or Symptomatic
New England Journal of Medicine, 1988ALTHOUGH "silent ischemia" has recently captured the imagination of investigators and physicians, it is by no means a new concept.

Silent ischemia: To treat or not
American Heart Journal, 1990As worded, the question "Should silent ischemia be treated?" needs to be examined carefully, assuming that silent ischemia is even the correct topic of the question. The way the question is phrased influences the answer. The more the question's permutations are examined, the clearer it becomes that the problem is one of definition.

Current Opinion in Cardiology, 2002
Between the extremes of those who have no coronary disease and those limited by it are those with documented ischemia but no symptoms. Treating these patients in the "murky middle" generates some important questions. Should we treat patients with no symptoms solely on the basis of test abnormalities? Can we make the asymptomatic person better?

Silent Myocardial Ischemia in Hypothyroidism
Thyroid®, 1995In some patients with severe hypothyroidism thyroxine replacement therapy precipitates or aggravates angina pectoris, whereas in other patients angina pectoris is ameliorated or even disappears. The reason for this paradox is unknown. It has been attributed either to reversible endocrine cardiomyopathy in the form of asymmetric septal hypertrophy (ASH)

Silent Myocardial Ischemia: An Update
Medical Clinics of North America, 1988Silent myocardial ischemia is diagnosed by several different techniques and has been documented in all the anginal syndromes. In addition to other factors, its presence may be related to increased pain threshold and increased pain tolerance. Although some patients with painless ischemia may have less extensive coronary artery disease, cumulative ...

Prognostic significance of silent ischemia
Journal of Nuclear Cardiology, 1994This study examined the prognostic predictors in 521 patients with angiographic evidence of coronary artery disease (CAD). All patients underwent exercise single-photon emission computed tomographic thallium imaging. The patients were divided into those with symptomatic ischemia defined as reversible thallium defects, S-T segment depression (or both ...

Silent myocardial ischaemia is a very common phenomenon in patients with coronary artery disease. It may occur in patients with clinical manifestations of angina, be detected during the post-myocardial infarction period or in patients totally asymptomatic. Whatsoever, it is well demonstrated that silent myocardial ischaemia has a very potent prognostic

Treatment of Silent Myocardial Ischemia
Cardiology Clinics, 1986Long-term studies regarding the effect of treatment on prognosis are lacking, but the adverse implications suggested for silent ischemia support aggressive management. Treatment of silent ischemic episodes is possible utilizing a large variety of agents.

Silent Myocardial Ischemia: To Treat or Not to Treat?
Hospital Practice, 1983The risk of infarction and sudden death is considerable in patients with silent ischemia, whether it occurs alone or is interspersed with episodes of angina. The ischemic activity can be modified or even abolished, most effectively with beta-blocker and nitrate therapy.
