Abstract:Background There is a wide variation in reported accuracy of noninvasive stress myocardial imaging as a screening tool for coronary artery disease (CAD). This study was undertaken to determine its current accuracy in a wide spectrum of patients with chest pain syndromes using invasive coronary angiography as the gold standard Methods The patient population consisted of consecutive patients undergoing coronary angiography in whom noninvasive stress imaging, either nuclear or echocardiographic, was performed within 6 months prior to the angiogram. The specificity, sensitivity, positive and negative predictive values, and diagnostic accuracy for detecting ≥ 1 lesions with ≥ 50% diameter coronary stenosis were determined for each modality. Results Of the 227 eligible patients, 141 were men and 86 were women; 70% had significant CAD. The diagnostic accuracy overall was 71% and was no different for nuclear or echocardiographic testing. The positive predictive value (86% vs 52%; P = 0.002) and diagnostic accuracy (83% vs 51%; P = 0.002) were better in men than in women. Interpretation In this study, noninvasive stress imaging lacked the accuracy of a good screening test for significant CAD. This finding was particularly true for women, for whom it was not much better than a coin toss. ... Read more

Product Description
This book presents new aspects on electrophysiological mechanisms and catecholaminergic contributions in the setting of acute and chronic myocardial ischemia. Special emphasis is placed on the full scope from basic molecular and cellular mechanisms to experimental models of close clinical proximity. A number of internationally distinguished scientists present their latest findings in this significant research area within the perimeter of cardiovascular disease which continues to lead mortality statistics in most industrialized countries. Contents of this book cover, in addition to other subjects, release and uptake of catecholamines in ischemia, regulation of receptors, adrenergic contribution to ventricular arrhythmias and mechanisms of ischemic malignant arrhythmias as well as underlying changes in membrane currents and the electrophysiological response to beta-adrenergic blocking drugs. In addition to original contributions, a number of editorial chapters are included for conclusions and future development in these areas. ... Read more
