Sent‐Induced Coronary Stenosis in a Previously Noncritical Segment Following PCI: A Case Report

open access: yesClinical Case Reports, Volume 14, Issue 4, April 2026.
ABSTRACT While percutaneous coronary interventions (PCI) with stenting are standard in treating coronary artery disease, rare complications such as stent‐induced de novo stenosis can paradoxically provoke acute coronary syndromes (ACS). We present the case of a 48‐year‐old female (Middle Eastern descent) with a recent history of coronary angioplasty ...

The Role of Inspiratory Muscle Strength in Functional Capacity and Left Atrial Strain in Patients With Heart Failure With Mildly Reduced and Preserved Ejection Fraction

open access: yesClinical Cardiology, Volume 49, Issue 4, April 2026.
In patients with HFpEF and HFmrEF, maximal inspiratory pressure is independently associated with exercise capacity, including peak oxygen uptake and 6‐minute walk distance, as well as left atrial reservoir strain. These findings highlight inspiratory muscle strength as a relevant functional determinant of exercise intolerance, independent of age and ...

Stent Thrombosis: A Narrative Review From Pathophysiology to Therapy

open access: yesClinical Cardiology, Volume 49, Issue 4, April 2026.
Stent thrombosis remains a life‐threatening complication of PCI driven by complex interactions between stent design, procedural factors, thrombogenic milieu, and inflammation. This review integrates pathophysiological mechanisms with contemporary and emerging therapeutic strategies, highlighting optimized PCI, tailored antithrombotic therapy, and novel

Sex‐Specific Associations With Abnormal Myocardial Flow Reserve in Non‐Obstructive Coronary Artery Disease: Insights From a Real‐World Cadmium‐Zinc‐Telluride SPECT Study

open access: yesClinical Cardiology, Volume 49, Issue 4, April 2026.
In 393 NOCAD patients undergoing CZT‐SPECT, LDL‐C was independently associated with abnormal MFR, with a significant sex×MDRD‐eGFR interaction. Female patients showed modest LDL‐C discrimination and distinct perfusion–diastolic phenotypes, suggesting sex‐modified cardiorenal‐microvascular relationships in coronary microvascular dysfunction.

The Potential Role of Baseline FT3/FT4 Ratio as a Prognostic Biomarker for Patients With Ischemic Non‐Obstructive Coronary Artery Disease

open access: yesClinical Cardiology, Volume 49, Issue 4, April 2026.
A low FT3/FT4 ratio indicates a significant increase in the risk of major adverse cardiovascular events in INOCA patients, or a novel biomarker for prognosis. ABSTRACT Background Ischemia with non‐obstructive coronary artery disease (INOCA) is associated with an increased risk of major adverse cardiovascular events (MACE).
