Product Description
This book provides up-to-date research on Angina pectoris, which is commonly known as angina, and is a chest pain due to ischemia (a lack of blood and hence oxygen supply) of the heart muscle, generally due to obstruction or spasm of the coronary arteries (the heart's blood vessels). Coronary artery disease, the main cause of angina, is due to atherosclerosis of the cardiac arteries. The term derives from the Greek ankhon ("strangling") and the Latin pectus ("chest"), and can therefore be translated as "a strangling feeling in the chest". It is common to equate severity of angina with risk of fatal cardiac events. There is a weak relationship between severity of pain and degree of oxygen deprivation in the heart muscle (i.e. there can be severe pain with little or no risk of a heart attack, and a heart attack can occur without pain). ...

Angina pectoris with normal coronary arteriograms is a commonentity which has puzzled cardiologists almost since the advent ofcoronary arteriography. Despite major advances in the understanding ofthe pathophysiology of angina in recent years and a multitude ofstudies on the subject, the cause and mechanisms underlying thesyndrome of angina with normal coronary arteries remain unknown.Indeed, results of investigations are controversial and speculationstill prevails regarding the nature of the so called `Syndrome X'.Almost every important aspect of Syndrome X has been tackled in thebook and the reader is exposed not only to the cardiologists' opinion,but also to the authoritative views of the gastroenterologists,gynaecologists and psychiatrists, extremely well represented in thismonograph.
