Research progress for pathological mechanism and typing of coronary microcirculation dysfunction / 心血管康复医学杂志

ABSTRACT

Some patients have symptoms and signs of angina pectoris and relevant evidence of ischemia,but coronary angiography suggested no obvious coronary stenosis.Part of them is caused by coronary microcirculation dysfunction (CMD),which cannot be clinically identified early due to current techniques.Microcirculation dysfunction is corre-lated with occurrence of major clinical events,which can be used as strong predictor for prognosis.Therefore,un-derstanding of its pathological mechanism is help to guide the diagnosis and treatment.The present article made a re-view on pathological mechanism and typing of CMD.
