OBJECTIVE: To investigate the diagnostic validity of coronary computed tomography angiography (cCTA) in vasospastic angina (VA) and factors associated with discrepant results between invasive coronary angiography with the ergonovine provocation test (iCAG-EPT) and cCTA. MATERIALS AND METHODS: Of the 1397 patients diagnosed with VA from 2006 to 2016, 33 patients (75 lesions) with available cCTA data from within 6 months before iCAG-EPT were included. The severity of spasm (% diameter stenosis [%DS]) on iCAG-EPT and cCTA was assessed, and the difference in %DS (Δ%DS) was calculated. Δ%DS was compared after classifying the lesions according to pre-cCTA-administered sublingual nitroglycerin (SL-NG) or beta-blockers. The lesions were further categorized with %DS ≥ 50% on iCAG-EPT or cCTA defined as a significant spasm, and the diagnostic performance of cCTA on identifying significant spasm relative to iCAG-EPT was assessed. RESULTS: Compared to lesions without SL-NG treatment, those with SL-NG treatment showed a higher Δ%DS (39.2% vs. 22.1%, = 0.002). However, there was no difference in Δ%DS with or without beta-blocker treatment (35.1% vs. 32.6%, = 0.643). The significant difference in Δ%DS associated with SL-NG was more prominent in patients who were aged < 60 years, were male, had body mass index < 25 kg/m², and had no history of hypertension, diabetes, or dyslipidemia. Based on iCAG-EPT as the reference, the per-lesion-based sensitivity, specificity, positive predictive value, negative predictive value, and accuracy of cCTA for VA diagnosis were 7.5%, 94.0%, 60.0%, 47.1%, and 48.0%, respectively. CONCLUSION: For patients with clinically suspected VA, confirmation with iCAG-EPT needs to be considered without completely excluding the diagnosis of VA simply based on cCTA results, although further prospective studies are required for confirmation.
目的:探讨冠状动脉 CT 血管造影(cCTA)在痉挛性心绞痛(VA)中的诊断价值,以及与血管内冠状动脉造影(iCAG-EPT)与 cCTA 检查结果不一致相关的因素。
材料与方法:从 2006 年至 2016 年诊断为 VA 的 1397 例患者中,纳入了 33 例(75 处病变)患者,这些患者在 iCAG-EPT 前 6 个月内有 cCTA 数据。评估 iCAG-EPT 和 cCTA 上的痉挛严重程度(%直径狭窄 [%DS]),并计算 %DS 差异(Δ%DS)。根据 cCTA 前舌下含服硝酸甘油(SL-NG)或β受体阻滞剂的应用情况对病变进行分类后,比较 Δ%DS。将病变进一步分为 iCAG-EPT 或 cCTA 上≥50%的 %DS 定义为显著痉挛,评估 cCTA 相对于 iCAG-EPT 对识别显著痉挛的诊断性能。
结果:与未接受 SL-NG 治疗的病变相比,接受 SL-NG 治疗的病变的 Δ%DS 更高(39.2% vs. 22.1%,=0.002)。然而,接受或未接受β受体阻滞剂治疗的病变之间 Δ%DS 无差异(35.1% vs. 32.6%,=0.643)。在年龄<60 岁、男性、体重指数<25kg/m²且无高血压、糖尿病或血脂异常病史的患者中,与 SL-NG 相关的 Δ%DS 差异更为显著。基于 iCAG-EPT 作为参考,cCTA 对 VA 诊断的病变水平基于敏感性、特异性、阳性预测值、阴性预测值和准确性分别为 7.5%、94.0%、60.0%、47.1%和 48.0%。
结论:对于有临床疑似 VA 的患者,在没有完全排除 VA 诊断的情况下,需要考虑进行 iCAG-EPT 检查确认,尽管需要进一步的前瞻性研究来证实。
