| MethodsStudy design Patients who underwent coronary angiography in our center between January 2012 and December 2013 were evaluated in this prospective case-control study. This study included 37 patients (19 males, 18 females; mean age 51±7 years) with typical complaints of angina, ischemia on an exercise test and normal coronary arteries as detected by angiography (the CSX group) and 47 patients (24 males, 23 females; mean age 51±8 years) who met the following criteria: 1) their complaints were in line with aObjective: Cardiac syndrome X (CSX) is characterised by typical exertional chest pain, a positive response to exercise testing, and a normal coronary angiography. The relationship of CSX with myocardial fibrosis and ischemia has been clearly demonstrated in previous studies. In addition, fragmented QRS (fQRS) has been reported in the literature as an indicator of myocardial fibrosis. The aim of this study was to investigate the frequency of fQRS in patients with CSX.Methods: This prospective case-control study included 37 patients (CSX group) with typical complaints of angina, ischemia on an exercise test, and normal coronary arteries as detected by angiography and 47 patients (control group) with normal coronary arteries. Echocardiographic examinations were performed according to the recommendations of the American Society of Echocardiography. Continuous variables were expressed as mean±standard deviation (SD), and the qualitative variables were expressed as a percentage or ratio. Data were compared statistically with Shapiro–Wilk test, Student’s t-test, Mann-Whitney U, chi-square and Fisher exact test … |
