Insulin resistance as a contributor to myocardial ischaemia independent of obstructive coronary atheroma: a role for insulin sensitisation?
There is good evidence to suggest that insulin resistance and its surrogate markers are at least modest independent cardiovascular risk factors. However, as well as long term effects on atheromatous coronary disease, there is a well described correlation between markers of insulin resistance and endothelial dysfunction. In this review, the evidence for a relation between endothelial dysfunction...
متن کاملPrinzmetal's angina.
Prinzmetal's angina, often referred to as "variant" angina, is a temporary increase in coronary vascular tone (vasospasm) causing a marked, but transient reduction in luminal diameter. This coronary vasospastic state is usually focal at a single site and can occur in either a normal or diseased vessel. Patients are predominantly younger women who may not have the classical cardiovascular risk f...
متن کاملUnstable Coronary Syndromes
A cute coronary heart disease syndromes, including unstable angina, variant angina (Prinzmetal's angina), and acute myocardial infarction are usually caused by a primary decrease in myocardial oxygen delivery.'-15Both unstable angina and Prinzmetal's angina are caused by a primary reduction in myocardial oxygen delivery, but in all probability, the mechanisms responsible for the decrease in myo...
متن کاملNifedipine therapy for Prinzmetal's angina.
A case is described in which nifedipine, a new coronary vasodilator, was effective in relieving attacks of Prinzmetal's angina unresponsive to conventional therapy. The extreme frequency of the anginal attacks provided evidence that lower doses of nifedipine lost their effectiveness approximately 4 hours after administration. A month after initiation of nifedipine, nitrates were withdrawn since...
متن کاملPropagation of arterial thrombi: local and remote contributory factors.
It is a common understanding that the rupture of an atheroma in the coronary arteries is the initial event in the onset of arterial thrombosis resulting in myocardial infarction.1 Ex vivo perfusion experiments using human blood have clearly demonstrated that platelet accumulation occurs immediately when the subendothelial matrix, such as collagen, is exposed to the blood stream.2 However, initi...
