121 High Diagnostic Yield in Patients Presenting with Acute Chest Pain, Positive Troponins but non-obstructive Coronaries by Cardiovascular Magnetic Resonance imaging with Conventional and Novel T1 Mapping Techniques. by Ferreira, V, Dall'Armellina, E, Piechnik, S, Karamitsos, T, Francis, J, Choudhury, R, Channon, K, Kharbanda, R, Forfar, C, Ormerod, O, Prendergast, B, Banning, A, Kardos, A, Newton, J, Friedrich, M, Robson, M, Neubauer, S

“…INTRODUCTION: Up to 10% of patients presenting with chest pain and elevated troponin levels demonstrate non-obstructive coronary arteries on angiography, posing a clinical challenge in diagnosis, prognosis and management. …”

The warm-up effect protects against ischemic left ventricular dysfunction in patients with angina. by Kelion, A, Webb, T, Gardner, M, Ormerod, O, Banning, A

“…Global LV ejection fraction and volume changes and regional ejection fraction for nine LV sectors were calculated for each acquisition. RESULTS: Onset of chest pain or 1 mm ST depression was delayed and occurred at a higher rate-pressure product during the second exercise test. …”

Does a selective adenosine A(1) receptor agonist protect against exercise induced ischaemia in patients with coronary artery disease? by Kelion, A, Webb, T, Gardner, M, Ormerod, O, Shepherd, G, Banning, A

“…RESULTS: The onset of chest pain or 1 mm ST depression was delayed and occurred at a higher rate-pressure product during the second exercise test following either placebo or GR79236. …”

Can a selective adenosine A1-agonist protect against exercise-induced ischaemic left ventricular dysfunction? by Kelion, A, Webb, T, Gardner, M, Ormerod, O, Banning, A

“…During the second of two ex tests following either placebo or drug, the onset of chest pain or 1mm ST depression was delayed and occurred at a higher rate-pressure product, whilst the mean REF of ischaemic sectors increased (P<0.05). …”
