Brief Summary:
The purpose of the study is to identify the causes of chest pain in patients experiencing chest pain with no signs of narrowing in the coronary arteries of the heart.
Detailed Description:
A significant number of patients with ischemic heart disease do not exhibit coronary obstruction, leading to their symptoms being attributed to coronary microvascular dysfunction, a condition known as ischemia with no obstructive coronary artery disease (INOCA). Despite a considerable patient population affected by INOCA, the specific mechanisms underlying this microvascular dysfunction are not fully understood, often resulting in a lack of targeted treatment. There is evidence to suggest that exercise capacity is linked to coronary microvascular function, an area yet to be explored.
This study aims to identify mechanisms underlying Coronary microvascular dysfunction (CMD) in angina and to assess whether exercise training can improve the condition. In study part I 30 patients with impaired coronary microvascular function and 30 asymptomatic controls will be studied to identify vascular and related molecular mechanisms underlying INOCA by investigating microvascular function in the heart and in cutaneous tissue, skeletal muscle, and adipose tissue.
