Mashup Score: 0Evaluation of Coronary Microvascular and Endothelial Function in the Cardiac Catheterization Laboratory - Current Treatment Options in Cardiovascular Medicine - 10 month(s) ago
Purpose of review Coronary endothelial and microvascular dysfunction leads to chronic angina (ANOCA) and ischemia (INOCA) in the absence of obstructive epicardial coronary artery disease. These highly prevalent conditions have been associated with increased morbidity and mortality. Comprehensive coronary reactivity testing (CRT) is performed in the cardiac catheterization laboratory to definite…

Mashup Score: 4Atrial Fibrillation and Endothelial Dysfunction - 3 year(s) ago
Atrial fibrillation (AF) is the most common cardiac arrhythmia, and coronary atherosclerosis is the leading cause of death in the United States and worldwide. Endothelial dysfunction is the earliest clinically detectable form of atherosclerosis. Control of shared AF and coronary atherosclerosis risk factors improves both AF-free survival and vascular endothelial function. Decades of AF research…

Mashup Score: 1Compositional change of gut microbiome and osteocalcin expressing endothelial progenitor cells in patients with coronary artery disease - 3 year(s) ago
Osteogenic endothelial progenitor cells (EPCs) contribute to impaired endothelial repair and promote coronary artery disease (CAD) and vascular calcification. Immature EPCs expressing osteocalcin (OCN) has been linked to unstable CAD; however, phenotypic regulation of OCN-expressing EPCs is not understood. We hypothesized that gut-microbiome derived pro-inflammatory substance, trimethylamine…

Mashup Score: 29
Myocardial infarction with non-obstructive coronary arteries (MINOCA) was first described over 80 years ago. The term has been widely and inconsistently used in clinical practice, influencing various aspects of disease classification, investigation and management. MINOCA encompasses a heterogenous group of conditions that include both atherosclerotic and non-atherosclerotic disease resulting in…
