| Abstract | The aim of this study was to investigate the relationship between coronary microvascular function and smoking using the 3 parameters fractional flow reserve (FFR), coronary flow reserve (CFR(thermo)), and index of microcirculatory resistance (IMR) in patients with coronary artery disease (CAD). A total of 97 CAD patients with 148 intermediate stenotic lesions were divided into two groups: current and former smokers (Smokers: n = 54), and those who had never smoked (Non-smokers: n = 43). Coronary physiology measurements were made following coronary angiography at rest and during hyperemia induced with intravenous adenosine triphosphate. If a patient had several intermediate lesions, the lesion producing the largest IMR value and minimum FFR(myo) and CFR(thermo) value was selected. Averaged over all patients, the FFR(myo), CFR(thermo), and IMR values were 0.86 ± 0.10, 2.66 ± 1.50, and 20.8 ± 10.7, respectively. There was no significant correlation between FFR(myo) and IMR. There were no significant differences between smokers and non-smokers in FFR(myo) value (median: 0.85 [IQR: 0.74-0.90] versus 0.87 [IQR: 0.83-0.90], P = 0.15) and CFR(thermo) value (median: 1.90 [IQR: 1.56-3.16] versus 2.10 [IQR: 1.50-2.67] U, P = 0.95). The IMR value was significantly greater in smokers (median: 24.2 [IQR: 16.8-32.5] U versus 18.5 [IQR: 15.4-27.0] U, P = 0.04). In multivariate analysis, smoking was an independent predictor of increased IMR. Smoking appears to have a detrimental effect on coronary microvascular function as measured by IMR. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.

NDLI is a conglomeration of freely available or institutionally contributed or donated or publisher managed contents. Almost all these contents are hosted and accessed from respective sources. The responsibility for authenticity, relevance, completeness, accuracy, reliability and suitability of these contents rests with the respective organization and NDLI has no responsibility or liability for these. Every effort is made to keep the NDLI portal up and running smoothly unless there are some unavoidable technical issues.
Ministry of Education, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT), has sponsored and funded the National Digital Library of India (NDLI) project.
