SEVERE or intractable chest pain, associated with sweating, vomiting, precipitate fall of arterial blood pressure, fever, and evidence of shock or collapse, clearly indicates a diagnosis of acute myocardial infaretion. In marked contrast is the entity of angina pectoris, with its paroxysms of chest pain after effort, typical radiation of pain into the arm, feeling of viselike constriction in th...

Four patients with variant angina pectoris exhibited reproducible exercise-induced chest pain and ST-segment elevation. Coronary arterial spasm was documented with arteriography during exercise-induced ST-segment elevation (three patients) or after intravenous administration of ergonovine maleate (one patient). Our observations show that in patients with variant angina exercise can trigger coro...

abstract despite sophisticated conventional medical treatment and the continued development and improvement of coronary revascularization modalities in recent years, a significant number of patients still suffer from refractory angina pectoris and cannot be successfully managed. advances in therapeutic options have led to an increase in the average of life expectancy even in such no-option pati...

A haemodynamic and myocardial metabolic study was performed to compare effects of maximal atrial pacing and the cold pressor test (CPT) in patients with angina pectoris. Twelve patients (group I) had angiographically severe coronary artery disease, while 16 patients (group II) had normal coronary angiograms. At maximal pacing, angina developed in all patients in group I, and myocardial lactate ...

This systematic review aims to evaluate current evidence for the benefit and side effect of oral Panax notoginseng preparation for coronary heart disease (CHD). We included 17 randomized clinical trials (17 papers and 1747 participants). Comparing with no intervention on the basis of conventional therapy, oral Panax notoginseng did not show significant effect on reducing cardiovascular events, ...

PURPOSE The present study aimed to investigate the relationship between the severity of coronary artery disease (CAD) and level of Lipoprotein (LP)(a). METHODS The study included 52 CAD patients and a control group consisting of 38 individuals. The patients were classified into three groups based on the clinical form of CAD (stable angina pectoris, SAP, unstable angina pectoris, UAP, and myoc...
