Angina pectoris may arise from obstructive coronary artery disease (CAD) or in the absence of significant CAD (ischemia with nonobstructed coronary arteries [INOCA]). Therapeutic strategies for patients with angina and obstructive CAD focus on reducing cardiovascular events and relieving symptoms, whereas in INOCA the focus shifts toward managing functional alterations of the coronary circulation. In obstructive CAD, coronary revascularization might improve angina status, although a significant percentage of patients present angina persistence or recurrence, suggesting the presence of functional mechanisms along with epicardial CAD. In patients with INOCA, performing a precise endotype diagnosis is crucial to allow a tailored therapy targeted toward the specific pathogenic mechanism. In this expert opinion paper, we review the evidence for the management of angina, highlighting the complementary role of coronary revascularization, optimal medical therapy, and lifestyle interventions and underscoring the importance of a personalized approach that targets the underlying pathobiology.
心绞痛可由阻塞性冠状动脉疾病(CAD)引起,也可在无明显 CAD 时发生(非阻塞性冠状动脉的缺血 [INOCA])。心绞痛合并阻塞性 CAD 患者的治疗策略侧重于减少心血管事件和缓解症状,而 INOCA 则侧重于管理冠状动脉循环的功能改变。在阻塞性 CAD 中,冠状动脉血运重建可能会改善心绞痛状况,但仍有相当一部分患者存在心绞痛持续或复发,这表明在存在心外膜 CAD 的同时还存在功能性机制。对于 INOCA 患者,进行精确的表型诊断至关重要,这有助于针对特定的致病机制进行个体化治疗。在本专家意见文件中,我们回顾了心绞痛管理的证据,强调了冠状动脉血运重建、最佳药物治疗和生活方式干预的互补作用,并强调了针对潜在病理生物学的个体化方法的重要性。
