Abstract

Objective: Angina is an important clinical symptom indicating underlying coronary artery disease (CAD). Its characteristics are important for the diagnosis and risk stratification of patients with CAD. Currently, we aimed to investigate the association of chest pain characteristics with the presence of obstructive CAD in a contemporary cohort of patients undergoing coronary angiography for suspected stable CAD. Methods: Consecutive patients undergoing coronary angiography for suspected stable CAD (n = 686) in a single university hospital cardiology department were enrolled. Chest pain was classified as typical angina, atypical angina, nonangina chest pain, and lack of symptoms. The presence of significant angiographic CAD was diagnosed by standard coronary angiography. Results: Typical angina symptoms were associated with a higher prevalence of CAD (odds ratio [OR], 3.47, p

Abstract

Background: We aimed to investigate whether the angiographic extent of coronary artery disease (CAD) differs in patients undergoing coronary angiography for stable CAD or acute coronary syndrome (ACS) and identify predictors of CAD extent in these patients. Methods: We enrolled 584 consecutive patients (463 with stable CAD, 121 with ACS) with angiographically established CAD (≥1 stenosis >25%). The Gensini score was used to assess the extent of coronary atherosclerosis. Results: Stable CAD patients had greater Framingham risk score and greater prevalence of hypertension, hypercholesterolemia, and diabetes (p50% stenosis) (OR 2.0, p=0.022). Higher Gensini score was independently associated with (i) higher hsCRP and glucose levels, hypercholesterolemia, and increased age in stable CAD patients (R2 0.15, p
