Abstract :
In a referral normal cardiac population, endothelium-independent coronary relaxation is nearly always normal, but endothelium-dependent relaxation may be depressed in a significant proportion of patients. Further study of the natural history of referral normal subjects with endothelial dysfunction is necessary to assess the potential cardiovascular risk of this finding in a presumed low-risk population.
