Popis: Patients with myocardial ischemia exhibit increased left ventricular end-diastolic pressure (LVEDP). The study was to evaluate the relationship between LVEDP measured by left cardiac catheterization and coronary artery disease (CAD) as well as its extent and severity evaluated by coronary angiography (CAG). 912 patients who underwent CAG and left cardiac catheterization were enrolled. There were 313 patients without CAD and 599 with CAD according to CAG. The extent and severity of coronary artery was evaluated by number of vessels and Gensini score. Analyze the correlation of LVEDP and CAD as well as its extent and severity. LVEDP was significantly higher in CAD patients than non-CAD (9.58±5.78 mmHg vs 10.9±5.46 mmHg, P
