Similarities of ergonovine-induced and spontaneous attacks of variant angina.
Ergonovine has been shown to provoke attacks of variant angina, but a question remains whether spontaneous and ergonovine-induced attacks of variant angina are similar. Seven patients with variant angina undergoing cardiac catheterization were studied during transient episodes of spontaneous and ergonovine-induced rest angina with ST-segment elevation. Clinical, electrocardiographic, left ventr...
متن کاملSpontaneous remission of membranous glomerulonephritis with successful fetal outcome
Membranous glomerulonephritis (MGN) represents an immunologically mediated disease characterized by deposition of immune complexes in the glomerular subepithelial space. Persistent proteinuria at diagnosis predicts poor prognosis. Pregnancy with MGN is a risk of fetal loss and may worsen maternal renal function.Here, we report a lady with MGN and proteinuria achieved spontaneous remission and s...
متن کاملCoronary hemodynamic findings during spontaneous angina in patients with variant angina.
To define more completely regional coronary hemodynamic changes that occur during spontaneous angina pectoris in patients with variant angina, we measured coronary sinus and great cardiac vein blood flow (CSF and GCVF) and aortic and left ventricular pressures before and during spontaneous angina in six patients with variant angina. During spontaneous angina, ECGs in four patients showed eviden...
متن کاملIncreasingly Frequent Angina
A 67-year-old white man presented to Hermann Hospital upon referral from an Austin, Tex, physician for evaluation of recurrent chest pain. Eighteen months before admission the patient first noted episodes of chest discomfort, which he described as a left parasternal sensation of heaviness or tightness variably associated with moderate physical exertion. The discomfort would last 3 to 4 minutes ...
متن کاملSpontaneous coronary artery spasm in variant angina is caused by a local hyperreactivity to a generalized constrictor stimulus.
To assess whether spontaneous coronary artery spasm in patients with variant angina results from local coronary hyperreactivity to a generalized constrictor stimulus or from a stimulus generated only at the site of the hyperreactive segment, the behavior of spastic and nonspastic coronary segments was studied in six patients with variant angina in whom focal coronary spasm developed spontaneous...
