Pathophysiology of Myocardial Infarction With Nonobstructive Coronary Artery Disease: A Contemporary Systematic Review. CJC Open 2024; 6:380-390. [PMID: 38487045 PMCID: PMC10935701 DOI: 10.1016/j.cjco.2023.11.014] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/27/2023] [Accepted: 11/14/2023] [Indexed: 03/17/2024] Open
Abstract
Background Myocardial infarction with nonobstructive coronary artery disease (MINOCA) is defined as acute myocardial infarction (AMI) with angiographically nonobstructive coronary artery disease. MINOCA represents 6% of all AMI cases and is associated with increased mortality and morbidity. However, the wide array of pathophysiological factors and causes associated with MINOCA presents a diagnostic conundrum. Therefore, we conducted a contemporary systematic review of the pathophysiology of MINOCA. Methods A comprehensive systematic review of MINOCA was carried out through the utilization of the PubMed database. All systematic reviews, meta-analyses, randomized controlled trials, and cohort studies available in English or French that reported on the pathophysiology of MINOCA published after January 1, 2013 were retained. Results Of the 600 identified records, 80 records were retained. Central to the concept of MINOCA is the definition of AMI, characterized by the presence of myocardial damage reflected by elevated cardiac biomarkers in the setting of acute myocardial ischemia. As a result, a structured approach should be adopted to thoroughly assess and address clinically overlooked obstructive coronary artery disease, and cardiac and extracardiac mechanisms of myocyte injury. Once these options have been ruled out, a diagnosis of MINOCA can be established, and the appropriate multimodal assessment can be conducted to determine its specific underlying cause (plaque disruption, epicardial coronary vasospasm, coronary microvascular dysfunction, and coronary embolism and/or spontaneous coronary dissection or supply-demand mismatch). Conclusions Integrating a suitable definition of AMI and understanding the pathophysiological mechanisms of MINOCA are crucial to ensure an effective multimodal diagnostic evaluation and the provision of adequate tailored therapies.

Abstract
Professor Maseri pioneered the research and treatment of coronary vasomotion abnormalities represented by coronary vasospasm and coronary microvascular dysfunction (CMD). These mechanisms can cause myocardial ischaemia even in the absence of obstructive coronary artery disease, and have been appreciated as an important aetiology and therapeutic target with major clinical implications in patients with ischaemia with non-obstructive coronary artery disease (INOCA). Coronary microvascular spasm is one of the key mechanisms responsible for myocardial ischaemia in patients with INOCA. Comprehensive assessment of coronary vasomotor reactivity by invasive functional coronary angiography or interventional diagnostic procedure is recommended to identify the underlying mechanisms of myocardial ischaemia and to tailor the best treatment and management based on the endotype of INOCA. This review highlights the pioneering works of Professor Maseri and contemporary research on coronary vasospasm and CMD with reference to endothelial dysfunction, Rho-kinase activation and inflammation.

Abstract
Sex-related differences in the prevalence of cardiac disorders have been elucidated beyond races. Angina/ischemia with nonobstructive coronary artery disease (AINOCA) is often observed in females. Coronary microvascular dysfunction (CMD) and coronary epicardial spasm (CES) are the principal cause of AINOCA. The clinical outcomes of Western patients with CMD were less satisfactory than expected, while the prognosis of Japanese patients with CES treated with medications including calcium channel blockers was favorable. However, the incidence and clinical features of coronary spasm endotypes were different between Western and Japanese populations. Furthermore, sex-related differences in the clinical manifestations and outcomes of patients with different spasm endotypes remain uncertain beyond race. In this article, we will review the sex differences in Japanese AINOCA patients with coronary vasomotor disorders, including CMD and CES, and compare them with those of Western patients.

Abstract
We report a case of vasospastic angina (VSA) following COVID-19 mRNA vaccination. Despite the widespread occurrence of myocarditis, there have been few reports of post-vaccinal VSA. A 41-year-old male patient was referred for chest pain at rest following mRNA vaccination; he had never experienced chest pain prior to vaccination. He was diagnosed by an acetylcholine (Ach) provocation test that showed multivessel vasospasm. After the initiation of treatment with a calcium channel blocker and nitrate, no further exacerbation of chest pain was observed. To our knowledge, this constitutes the first reported case of VSA proven by Ach provocation test after COVID-19 vaccination. The vaccination may increase coronary artery spasticity. VSA should be ruled out in post-vaccine new onset resting chest pain.
