Article Synopsis
- The study aimed to determine if the extent of angina radiation (AR) could help predict the severity of coronary artery disease (CAD) in patients with stable angina.
- Patients were divided into two groups based on the extent of their anginal radiation; group 1 had limited radiation to the chest and back, while group 2 had more widespread radiation, including remote areas like the jaw and wrists.
- While no significant difference in CAD distribution was found between the two groups, patients with remote AR showed a high sensitivity for multi-vessel CAD, suggesting that specific anginal patterns can help in assessing coronary health.
Recognition of coincidence of cerebral vascular disease is of importance in patients with coronary artery disease. One hundred and seventy-three patients who underwent coronary angiography were also studied by angiography of subclavian arteries and abdominal aorta. The majority of the patients (128/173; 74%) were men.

The presence of disease in more than 1 area clearly has important implications on management. One hundred and seventy eight patients had angiographic evaluation of their peripheral arteries and abdominal aorta after routine diagnostic coronary angiography.
