Standard exercise stress testing attenuates peripheral microvascular function in patients with suspected coronary microvascular dysfunction

Abstract Background The effect of exercise on the microvasculature of patients with suspected coronary microvascular dysfunction (CMD), assessed by reactive hyperemia peripheral arterial tonometry (RH-PAT; EndoPAT), is unknown. The present study aimed to determine if standard clinical exercise stres...
