There is limited evidence about mortality risks among women with symptoms of IHD who remain undiagnosed. We re-examined the mortality risks in midlife women who completed the Rose Angina Questionnaire, among a subset of the Royal College of General Practitioners' Oral Contraception Study cohort.

Background: Microvascular angina (MVA) is an important contributor to morbidity and mortality in patients with non-obstructive coronary artery disease. Despite improvements in its recognition and diagnosis, uncertainty remains around the most effective treatment strategy, and more data are needed.
