摘要: 心绞痛或者心肌梗死传统上被认为是由阻塞性冠状动脉疾病引起的。然而,大量心绞痛患者或者一部分急性心肌梗死患者在接受冠状动脉造影或冠状动脉CT血管成像技术检查未见冠状动脉大血管狭窄或狭窄 < 50%,这些患者中有很大一部分患有冠状动脉微血管功能障碍(Coronary Microvascular Dysfunction, CMD)。CMD已被确定为心脏缺血的原因之一,冠状动脉微血管功能障碍可以单独发生,也可以与阻塞性冠状动脉疾病一起发生。随着侵入性和非侵入性技术的出现,在过去的几年中,冠状动脉微血管系统得到了更广泛的研究。不幸的是,尽管已确定CMD在几种情况下的病理生理学和预后作用,但迄今为止,还没有针对CMD的特异性治疗方法,我们主要讨论目前临床研究产生的潜在的治疗策略。
Abstract: Angina pectoris, or myocardial infarction, has traditionally been considered to be caused by ob-structive coronary artery disease. However, in a large number of patients with angina pectoris or some patients with acute myocardial infarction, coronary angiography or coronary CT angiography showed no coronary artery stenosis or stenosis. 50%, a large proportion of these patients have cor-onary microvascular dysfunction. Coronary microvascular dysfunction has been identified as one of the causes of cardiac ischemia. Coronary microvascular dysfunction may occur alone or in conjunc-tion with obstructive coronary artery disease. With the advent of non-invasive and invasive tech-nologies, the coronary microvascular system has been studied more extensively in the past few years. Unfortunately, although the pathophysiological and prognostic role of coronary microcircula-tion disorders has been established in several conditions. However, to date, there is no specific treatment for CMD, and we mainly discuss the potential treatment strategies arising from current clinical studies.
