Table 3. Comparison of myocardial blood flow between CMD and normal patients.
Variable | CMD patients (n=50) | Control patients (n=52) | t | P |
---|---|---|---|---|
LAD rMBF (mL/g/min) | 0.88±0.14 | 0.81±0.17 | 1.569 | 0.123 |
LAD sMBF (mL/g/min) | 1.32±0.33 | 2.47±0.74 | −7.192 | <0.001 |
LCX rMBF (mL/g/min) | 0.80±0.15 | 0.83±0.15 | −0.677 | 0.502 |
LCX sMBF (mL/g/min) | 1.12±0.43 | 2.35±0.66 | −7.882 | <0.001 |
RCA rMBF (mL/g/min) | 0.84±0.16 | 0.80±0.19 | −0.736 | 0.465 |
RCA sMBF (mL/g/min) | 1.41±0.47 | 2.66±0.96 | −5.876 | <0.001 |
Values are given as mean ± SD. CMD, coronary microvascular dysfunction; MBF, myocardial blood flow; rMBF, rest MBF; sMBF, stress MBF; LAD, left anterior descending; LCX, left circumflex; RCA, right coronary artery.
