Endothelial dysfunction, increased carotid artery intima-media thickness and pulse wave velocity, and increased level of inflammatory markers are associated with variant angina

Summary Background Endothelial dysfunction and vascular inflammation may be associated with variant angina (VA). Flow-mediated vasodilation (FMD), carotid artery intima-media thickness (IMT), and pulse wave velocity (PWV) are widely used as non-invasive modalities for evaluating atherosclerosis. Met...
