Popis: | Background: Several studies demonstrated that endothelial or atherosclerotic biomarkers, including plasma free insulin-like growth factor-I(IGF-I), soluble CD40 ligand (sCD40L), adiponectin, and leptin have an influence on coronary endothelial function. Hypothesis: The aim of the present study was to investigate whether change of coronary flow velocity of the distal left anterior descending artery (LAD) during the cold pressor test (CPT) with transthoracic Doppler echocardiography (TTE) was associated with these biomarkers in subjects with chest pain and a normal coronary angiogram. Methods: In 190 subjects (mean age, 54±11 years; male:female, 113:77) with chest pain and a normal coronary angiogram, peak diastolic velocity (PDV) of the distal LAD during the CPT with TTE was assessed. Acetylcholine provocation test was performed in 58 subjects (mean age, 51±10 years) who were clinically suspected of vasospasm. CPT%PDV was defined as the percent change in PDV during the CPT. Associations between CPT%PDV and clinical parameters were analyzed. Results: According to multiple regression analysis, CPT%PDV was associated with plasma free IGF-I in the entire study population (β=0.295, P |
