[Could the understanding of racial differences prevent idiosyncratic anesthetic reactions?].

Revista brasileira de anestesiologia

Vale NB, Delfino J, Vale LF.
PMID: 19475278
Rev Bras Anestesiol. 2003 Apr;53(2):258-77.

BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES: There are several unanswered questions about the interethnic variability in anesthetic and adjuvant drugs responses. Current pharmacogenetic developments are taking us to the verge of being able to identify inherited racial differences which could predict individual...

A case of variant angina developing transient collateral circulation during vasospasm.

Korean circulation journal

Lee WS, Kim DH, Park KS, Woo SI, Shin SH, Jun K, Cheon W, Jeong ES, Park SD.
PMID: 21607175
Korean Circ J. 2011 Apr;41(4):220-3. doi: 10.4070/kcj.2011.41.4.220. Epub 2011 Apr 30.

Variant angina is characterized by spontaneous episodes of angina, usually occurring in the morning and having ST segment elevation on the electrocardiogram. However, in the case presented here, vasospasm and angina was shown by ergonovine without ST elevation. The...

Gender differences among korean patients with coronary spasm.

Korean circulation journal

Lee JH, Lee H, Bae MH, Kwon YS, Lee JH, Ryu HM, Park Y, Yang DH, Park HS, Cho Y, Chae SC, Jun JE, Park WH.
PMID: 19949588

BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES: The gender differences among Korean patients with coronary spasm have not been defined. We thus determined the gender differences among Korean patients with coronary spasm.SUBJECTS AND METHODS: Patients with chest pain and/or syncope who were admitted...

Refractory coronary artery spasm after minimally invasive direct coronary artery bypass grafting.

The Korean journal of thoracic and cardiovascular surgery

Ju MH, Kim JB, Kim HJ, Choo SJ.
PMID: 22263171
Korean J Thorac Cardiovasc Surg. 2011 Aug;44(4):288-91. doi: 10.5090/kjtcs.2011.44.4.288. Epub 2011 Aug 18.

Postoperative coronary arterial spasm is a rare but potentially fatal complication. A 51-year-old male patient with a history of a reactive ergonovine stress test coronary angiogram developed refractory coronary artery spasm after undergoing minimally invasive direct coronary artery bypass...

Rho-associated kinase 2 polymorphism in patients with vasospastic angina.

Korean circulation journal

Yoo SY, Kim J, Cheong S, Shin DH, Jang J, Lee C, Tahk SJ, Shin JH, Choi SY, Yoon MH.
PMID: 22787471
Korean Circ J. 2012 Jun;42(6):406-13. doi: 10.4070/kcj.2012.42.6.406. Epub 2012 Jun 28.

BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES: Recent studies indicate that in response to vasoconstrictor stimuli, the small GTPase RhoA and its down-stream effector, Rho-associated kinase 2 (ROCK)/Rho-kinase, are associated with hypercontraction of the vascular smooth muscle of coronary arteries through augmentation of...

Does a negative ergonovine provocation test truly predict freedom from variant angina?.

Korean circulation journal

Kim YG, Kim HJ, Choi WS, Im MS, Yoon CH, Suh JW, Choi DJ.
PMID: 23613700
Korean Circ J. 2013 Mar;43(3):199-203. doi: 10.4070/kcj.2013.43.3.199. Epub 2013 Mar 31.

Ergonovine provocation test is known to be very sensitive for diagnosing variant angina. The patient described in this study initially presented with atypical chest pain and underwent coronary angiography and ergonovine provocation tests, which were negative. The patient was...

Direct evidence of sympathetic hyperactivity in patients with vasospastic angina.

American journal of cardiovascular disease

Boudou N, Despas F, Rothem JV, Lairez O, Elbaz M, Vaccaro A, Lebrin M, Pathak A, Carrié D.
PMID: 28695054
Am J Cardiovasc Dis. 2017 Jun 15;7(3):83-88. eCollection 2017.

BACKGROUND: The autonomic nervous system is reported to be involved in the pathogenesis of vasospastic angina (VSA). Studies based on heart rate variability analysis have shown conflicting results with both a reduction and an enhancement of sympathetic nervous system...

Spontaneous coronary artery spasm detected by computed tomography coronary angiography: Provoked spasm site similar to intracoronary injection of ergonovine but not acetylcholine.

Journal of cardiology cases

Sueda S, Kohno H.
PMID: 31762835
