Coronary microvascular dysfunction (CMD) in post-percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) target vessels is increasingly recognized as a critical determinant of adverse cardiovascular outcomes, yet its prevalence and prognostic implications remain poorly characterized. We conducted a systematic review and meta-analysis to determine the prevalence of CMD in post-PCI target vessels and its associated clinical outcomes.
We conducted a systematic review and meta-analysis of observational studies using quantitative coronary physiological assessments to evaluate CMD in post-PCI target vessels. Databases (PubMed, Embase, Web of Science) were searched from inception to January 2025. The pooled Prevalence, multivariable-adjusted hazard ratio (HR) and 95% confidence interval (CI) for clinical outcomes were calculated using random-effects models.
A total of 21 observational studies involving 6,632 patients were included. The pooled prevalence of CMD in post-PCI target vessels was 41.66% (95% CI: 34.18%-49.34%). Subgroup analyses revealed numerical variations in CMD prevalence across assessment methods, sex, clinical diagnoses, and target vessels, though intergroup differences did not reach statistical significance (all > 0.05). The pooled prevalence of CMD was numerically higher in females (46.22% vs. 36.73% in males), patients with acute coronary syndrome (42.37% vs. 36.04% in chronic coronary syndrome), and those assessed via non-wire-based methods (44.72% vs. 35.65% in wire-based methods). CMD prevalence was comparable across target vessels (left anterior descending artery: 37.34%, left circumflex artery: 38.50%, right coronary artery: 39.09%). Patients with post-PCI thrombolysis in myocardial infarction (TIMI) flow grade ≤2 exhibited higher CMD prevalence than those with TIMI flow grade 3, with a statistically significant difference (75.36% vs. 37.26%, = 0.0012). CMD in post-PCI target vessels was independently associated with a 3.10-fold increased risk of major adverse cardiovascular events (95% CI: 2.06-4.67) and a 4.66-fold risk of cardiac death or heart failure readmission (95% CI: 3.13-6.93).
CMD in post-PCI target vessels is prevalent (approximately 40%) and independently associated with a elevated risk of adverse cardiovascular outcomes. Standardized diagnostic criteria and targeted interventions are urgently needed to improve outcomes in this population.

经皮冠状动脉介入治疗(PCI)后靶血管的冠状动脉微血管功能障碍(CMD)越来越被认为是不良心血管结局的关键决定因素,但其患病率和预后意义仍未得到充分描述。我们进行了一项系统评价和荟萃分析,以确定PCI后靶血管中CMD的患病率及其相关临床结局。
我们对使用定量冠状动脉生理评估来评估PCI后靶血管中CMD的观察性研究进行了系统评价和荟萃分析。从数据库建立至2025年1月检索数据库(PubMed、Embase、Web of Science)。使用随机效应模型计算临床结局的合并患病率、多变量调整风险比(HR)和95%置信区间(CI)。
共纳入21项涉及6632例患者的观察性研究。PCI后靶血管中CMD的合并患病率为41.66%(95%CI:34.18%-49.34%)。亚组分析显示,CMD患病率在评估方法、性别、临床诊断和靶血管之间存在数值差异,尽管组间差异未达到统计学意义(均>0.05)。女性CMD的合并患病率在数值上更高(46.22%对男性的36.73%)、急性冠状动脉综合征患者(42.37%对慢性冠状动脉综合征患者的36.04%)以及通过非基于导丝的方法评估的患者(44.72%对基于导丝的方法的35.65%)。各靶血管的CMD患病率相当(左前降支动脉:37.34%,左旋支动脉:38.50%,右冠状动脉:39.09%)。PCI后心肌梗死溶栓(TIMI)血流分级≤2的患者比TIMI血流分级为3的患者表现出更高的CMD患病率,差异有统计学意义(75.36%对37.26%,=0.0012)。PCI后靶血管中的CMD与主要不良心血管事件风险增加3.10倍(95%CI:2.06-4.67)以及心脏死亡或心力衰竭再入院风险增加4.66倍(95%CI:3.13-6.93)独立相关。
PCI后靶血管中的CMD很常见(约为40%),并且与不良心血管结局风险升高独立相关。迫切需要标准化的诊断标准和针对性干预措施来改善该人群的结局。
