Background: Acute systemic inflammation or infection transiently increases risk of cardiovascular events, but the underlying mechanisms are not fully understood. Although observational studies suggest that inflammation is positively associated with arterial stiffness and blood pressure, the causal relationship...

Background: The cold pressor test (CPT) has been used to detect vasospastic angina, but its sensitivity for predicting vasospasm is low. The aim of this study was to determine if the estimation of coronary flow reserve capacity in the left anterior descending coronary artery using transthoracic Doppler...
