ST-segment fluctuation induced by treadmill exercise test in patients with angina pectoris

Antilipolytic therapy in angina pectoris. Reduction of exercise-induced ST segment depression.

A double-blind cross-over study was performed on 12 men sith stable angina pectoris in order to determine the effect of antilipolytic treatment on exercise tolerance and exercise-induced electrocardiographic changes. The men were exercised to the onset of anginal pain using a reproducible and standardized ergometric load. A nicotinic acid analogue was used to reduce plasma free fatty acids and ...

Body surface distribution of exercise-induced ST depression in patients with angina pectoris.

In 38 patients with angina pectoris, 87 unipolar lead electrocardiograms were recorded from different sites over the entire thoracic surface both before and after submaximal treadmill exercise. The site of exercise-induced ST depression on the body surface was correlated with the findings of the coronary arteriography. The number of leads which showed exercise-induced ST depression was 7.2 +/- ...

Maximal exercise testing in patients with spontaneous angina pectoris associated with transiet ST segment elevation. Risks and electrocardiographic findings.

Six patients with spontaneous angina associated with transient ST segment elevation had a multistate maximal exercise (bicycle) test. In 5 patients, typical electrocardiographic changes were recorded during exercise, namely ST segment elevation often accompanied by an increase in the voltage of the R wave and a widening of the QRS complex. Four of these patients developed severe rhythm disturba...

Anticardiolipin and Antiphospholipid Antibodies in Iraqi Patients with Angina Pectoris

Reproducibility of a multi-stage near maximal treadmill test for exercise tolerance in angina pectoris.

A retrospective analysis was made of the reproducibility of a treadmill exercise tolerance test performed on patients with angina pectoris to an end point of moderately severe (3+) angina. One hundred and forty tests (70 pairs) in 63 patients were found to meet criteria for inclusion in the study. In 30 patients a comparison of the first test the patient had ever had with a subsequent test reve...
