Coronary Microvascular Dysfunction: Insights on Prognosis and Future Perspectives by Filippo Luca Gurgoglione, Giorgio Benatti, Andrea Denegri, Davide Donelli, Marco Covani, Mattia De Gregorio, Gabriella Dallaglio, Rebecca Navacchi, Giampaolo Niccoli

“…Coronary microvascular dysfunction (CMD) comprises a wide spectrum of structural and/or functional abnormalities of coronary microcirculation that can lead to myocardial ischemia. Emerging evidence has indicated that CMD is a relevant cause of morbidity and mortality and is associated with a high risk of major adverse cardiovascular events (MACEs) and heart failure with preserved ejection fraction as well as poor quality of life. …”
