2016, International Journal of CardiologyCitation Excerpt :The prevalence of MI in patients with variant angina can be derived from the data obtained by H. Yasue et al., according to which the survival rate of patients with variant angina at 1, 3, 5, and 10 years was 98%, 97%, 97%, and 93%, respectively, whereas the survival rate without MI at 1, 3, 5, and 10 years was 86%, 85%, 83%, and 81%, respectively [324]. The role of coronary vasospasm in the pathogenesis of MI was established in the work of T. Fukai et al., who showed that intracoronary ergonovine maleate induced coronary vasospasm in 75% of patients with MI and no significant coronary stenosis [325]. Furthermore, coronary vasospasm occurred in the infarct-related coronary arteries in all patients, and, importantly, multi-vessel coronary vasospasm occurred in 69% of patients [325].

2013, Journal of the American College of CardiologyCitation Excerpt :Infants, elderly patients, and patients with hepatic dysfunction lack sufficient plasma cholinesterase to metabolize the drug (1003) and therefore are at high risk of adverse effects with cocaine use. The basis for coronary spasm has been demonstrated in both in vitro (1003) and in vivo (999,1004–1008) experiments in animals and humans. Reversible vasoconstriction of rabbit aortic rings has been demonstrated with cocaine in concentrations of 10−3 to 10−8 mol per liter.
