Background: Coronary microvascular dysfunction (CMVD) is often suggested in patients with typical chest pain and abnormal stress test results that are indicative of myocardial ischaemia, in whom coronary angiography fails to show fixed stenosis inepicardial coronary arteries. The efficacy of pharmacologic treatment on clinical outcome remains to be determined.Aim: To determine the relationship between CMVD and epicardial fat thickness (EFT).Methods: A case-controlled study was conducted on 124 patients, aged 40–91 years. A matched set of 62 symptomatic and 62 asymptomatic patients underwent an exercise electrocardiogram and transthoracic echocardiography. Coronary angiography was performed in patients with abnormal exercise test results. Pa...
