Angina, heart failure with preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF) and coronary microvascular dysfunction (CMD) in the absence of obstructive artery disease (CAD) are more common women associated adverse cardiovascular prognosis. Cardiac magnetic resonance imaging (CMRI) is established for assessment left ventricular (LV) morphology systolic function increasingly used to assess myocardial perfusion diastolic function. Indeed, stress CMRI allows measurement reserve index (MPRI) using...

"Sex and Gender Medicine" is a novel medical discipline that takes into account the effects of sex gender on health women men. The Institute Medicine in USA declared its 2001 2010 statements being woman or man significantly impacts course diseases, therefore, this fact must be considered diagnosis therapy. We evaluated representation Sex clinical training at Cedars-Sinai Medical Center, large, tertiary, non-profit, academic center Western United States.Post-graduate physician trainees...

Women with symptoms and signs of ischemia, preserved left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF), no obstructive coronary artery disease (CAD), often have microvascular dysfunction (CMD), are at risk future heart failure (HFpEF). N-terminal pro-B-type natriuretic peptide (NT-proBNP) is used to evaluate HF myocardial ischemia. Relationships between NT-proBNP CMD not well defined in this population.

Women frequently present with symptoms not typical of angina (NTA) making ischemic heart disease recognition, diagnosis and treatment challenging. We compared mortality in women obstructive coronary artery (CAD) NTA vs (TA). studied 326 Women's Ischemia Syndrome Evaluation (WISE) participants undergoing angiography for suspected myocardial ischemia core-lab measured CAD. TA was defined as sub-sternal chest pain precipitated by physical exertion or emotional stress relieved rest...

Background: Women frequently present with non-typical angina (NTA) making ischemia diagnosis and treatment challenging. We hypothesized that mortality would be higher in women obstructive coronary artery disease (CAD) NTA vs typical (TA). Methods: studied 364 Women’s Ischemia Syndrome Evaluation (WISE) participants signs symptoms of CAD, defined as ≥50% stenosis by WISE angiography core laboratory. TA was sub-sternal chest pain precipitated physical exertion or emotional stress relieved rest...
