Ischemia with non-obstructive coronary artery (INOCA) is a blind spot of coronary artery disease (CAD). Such patients are often reassured but offered no specific care, that lead to a heightened risk of adverse cerebrovascular disease (CVD) outcomes. Epicardial adipose tissue (EAT) is proven to correlate independently with CAD and its severity, but it is unknown whether EAT is a specific and sensitive indicator of INOCA. This review focuses on the INOCA epidemiology and related factors, as well as the association between EAT.
非阻塞性冠状动脉疾病(INOCA)伴缺血是冠状动脉疾病(CAD)的一个盲点。此类患者通常会得到安抚,但不会提供任何特定的护理,这会导致不良脑血管疾病(CVD)结局的风险增加。心外膜脂肪组织(EAT)已被证明与 CAD 及其严重程度独立相关,但尚不清楚 EAT 是否是 INOCA 的特异性和敏感指标。本综述重点介绍了 INOCA 的流行病学及相关因素,以及 EAT 之间的关联。
