pubmed:abstractText |
Cardiac allograft vasculopathy represents the leading cause of death in heart transplant recipients who survive more than 1 year. Functional endothelial abnormalities are sensitive measures of the early development of cardiac allograft vasculopathy, but the relative importance of large and small coronary vessel abnormalities has not been evaluated. The purpose of the study was to distinguish between large and small coronary endothelial dysfunction in patients early after heart transplantation and to test the hypothesis that microvascular endothelial responses can be preserved in the presence of epicardial endothelial dysfunction.
