【 摘 要 】

Background-Endothelial dysfunction of coronary arteries with impaired vasodilation has been reported in patients with arterial hypertension. However, the effect of dynamic exercise on coronary vasomotion of a stenotic vessel segment before and after PTCA has not yet been evaluated in these patients, Methods and Results-Coronary vasomotion of a normal and a stenotic vessel segment was studied in 39 patients with coronary artery disease during supine bicycle exercise before and 9+/-3 months after PTCA. Luminal area changes were determined by biplane quantitative coronary arteriography. There were 21 normotensive and 18 hypertensive patients who did not differ with regard to clinical characteristics. Percent area stenosis decreased after PTCA from 90% to 39% (P<0.001) in normotensive and from 86% to 33% (P<0.001) in hypertensive patients. Exercise-induced vasomotion of the normal vessel segment was significantly different between normotensives and hypertensives before (+19% versus +1%, P<0.01) and after (+16% versus +3%, P<0.01) PTCA. Ln contrast, stenotic vessel segments showed vasoconstriction in both normotensive and hypertensive patients (Delta exercise, -11% versus -20%, P=NS), which was reversed after PTCA (+3% versus +2%, P=NS). Conclusions-Normal coronary arteries show reduced vasodilation during exercise in hypertensive patients that may be explained by the presence of endothelial dysfunction, Stenotic vessels demonstrate paradoxical vasoconstriction during exercise in both normotensive and hypertensive patients. PTCA reverses vasoconstriction by elimination of the flow-limiting stenosis and prevention of coronary stenosis narrowing during exercise in normotensive and hypertensive patients.
