Stable angina pectoris with no obstructive coronary artery disease is associated with increased risks of major adverse cardiovascular events

Abstract

Patients with stable angina and normal coronary arteries or diffuse non-obstructive CAD have elevated risks of MACE and all-cause mortality compared with a reference population without ischaemic heart disease.
