N-Terminal pro-B-type natriuretic peptide and coronary microvascular dysfunction in women with preserved ejection fraction: A report from the Women's Ischemia Syndrome Evaluation-Coronary Vascular Dysfunction (WISE-CVD) study.

N-Terminal pro-B-type natriuretic peptide and coronary microvascular dysfunction in women with preserved ejection fraction: A report from the Women's Ischemia Syndrome Evaluation-Coronary Vascular Dysfunction (WISE-CVD) study.

<h4>Background</h4>Women with symptoms and signs of ischemia, preserved left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF), and no obstructive coronary artery disease (CAD), often have coronary microvascular dysfunction (CMD), and are at risk of future heart failure with preserved ejection fracti...
