This review briefly addresses the clinical presentation, mechanisms and management of patients with chronic primary stable MVA. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

En el presente artículo se expone la evidencia existente sobre el papel potencial que la isquemia miocárdica puede ejercer en la patogenia del síndrome X (AU) Cardiac syndrome X defines patients with typical chest pain, transient ischemic ST segment changes [ibecs.isciii.es]

Finally, CYP2C19 PMs are present in 2–3% of Caucasians ( 21 ), whereas they are found in 11, 21, 23, 35 ). [physiology.org]

There is at present no known cure however a change in lifestyle is important. Patients should start following healthier diets which are low in saturated fats, and should participate in regular physical activities. [en.wikipedia.org]

• Pain

  The pain associated with microvascular angina is normally more intense and it lasts for longer periods of time compared to pain caused by other conditions. For example, a stable angina causes chest pain that goes away when at rest. [en.wikipedia.org]

  The pain/discomfort: May be more severe and last longer than other types of angina pain. May occur with shortness of breath. Often is first noticed during routine daily activities or mental stress. [heart.org]

  If you have any type of chest pain, you should contact your healthcare provider. This is true if you do or don’t already have a diagnosis. [my.clevelandclinic.org]

  Exercises for joint pain For those experiencing joint pain, rehabilitation involving exercises and stretching will help reduce pain and improve functional ability [sheresurgery.nhs.uk]

  This has been based on the fact that patients with cardiac syndrome X have abnormal perfusions cans, a drop in both pH and oxygen saturation of the coronary sinus blood during chest pain and transmyocardiallactate production during stress testing. [ibecs.isciii.es]

• Inflammation

  The decreased enzyme activity of CYP2C19 PM, which decreases the level of EETs, appears to lead to increased inflammation and impaired microcirculation. [physiology.org]

• Coronary Atherosclerosis

  atherosclerosis, impaired LV function and arrhythmias. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

• Chest Pain

  The narrowing of these vessels may lead to lack of oxygen in specific areas of the cardiac muscle causing chest pain. [en.wikipedia.org]

  Causes Spasms within the walls of these very small arterial blood vessels reduce blood flow to the heart muscle, leading to a type of chest pain referred to as microvascular angina. [heart.org]

  If you have any type of chest pain, you should contact your healthcare provider. This is true if you do or don’t already have a diagnosis. [my.clevelandclinic.org]

  This has been based on the fact that patients with cardiac syndrome X have abnormal perfusions cans, a drop in both pH and oxygen saturation of the coronary sinus blood during chest pain and transmyocardiallactate production during stress testing. [ibecs.isciii.es]

• Ischemic Changes

  All MVA cases experiencing chest pain and ischemic changes in the electrocardiogram (ECG) in the exercise stress test underwent cardiac catheterization. [physiology.org]

[…] part of the treatment is regularly visiting the doctor and repeating the tests to make sure the condition was taken care of in full. [en.wikipedia.org]

Treatment of Coronary Microvascular Disease Relieving pain is one of the main goals of treating coronary MVD. Treatments also are used to control risk factors and other symptoms. [heart.org]

Treatment Treatment of MVA includes full control of cardiovascular risk factors and all other conditions that might impair clinical outcomes (i.e. inflammatory status, oestrogen deficiency, high adrenergic activity). [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

Prognosis has been reported to be good in patients with MVA in the absence of conditions known to be associated with increased risk. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

Their arguments are mainly based on the fact that prognosis is good in these patients and that studies with stress echocardiography have consistently failed to show regional wall motion abnormalities, even in patients with typical ischaemic ECG changes [ibecs.isciii.es]

While its recognition is of clinical importance, its prognosis is excellent. (Braunwald, Heart Disease, 4th ed, p1346; Jablonski Dictionary of Syndromes & Eponymic Diseases, 2d ed). [idref.fr]

Outlook / Prognosis What can I expect if I have microvascular angina? Generally, the outlook for someone with microvascular angina is good, but you need to know you have it. Microvascular angina is sometimes not diagnosed correctly, or even at all. [my.clevelandclinic.org]

[…] develop this condition, and there is some evidence that suggests that there are genetic mutations that predispose to the syndrome. [3] Women are more prone to this condition than men, as well as those who have a history of heart disease in the family. [4] Pathophysiology [en.wikipedia.org]

A pathophysiologically based approach should be preferred over a ‘first line’ and ‘second line’ recommendation. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

Prevention of Coronary Microvascular Disease No studies have been done on how to prevent coronary MVD. Researchers don't yet know how or in what way preventing coronary MVD differs from preventing heart disease. [heart.org]

Prevention How can I reduce my risk of developing microvascular angina? There are risks you can’t prevent, such as being female or having an autoimmune condition. [my.clevelandclinic.org]

Node et al. ( 25 ) reported that EETs prevented leukocyte adhesion to the vascular wall by a mechanism involving inhibition of transcription factor, nuclear factor-κB, and IκB kinase. [physiology.org]
