Angina Pectoris Prevalence and Sick Leave Burden 1 Year After Myocardial Infarction With Nonobstructive Coronary Arteries.

ABSTRACT:

Background

Symptom burden and disease effects following myocardial infarction with nonobstructive coronary arteries (MINOCA) are not well studied. We aimed to evaluate the prevalence of angina pectoris, sick leave, and quality-of-life levels 1 year after the index event, using patients with myocardial infarction due to obstructive coronary artery disease (MI-CAD) as controls.

Methods and results

Patients with first-time myocardial infarction, assessed by coronary angiography and registered in the SWEDEHEART (Swedish Web-System for Enhancement and Development of Evidence-Based Care in Heart Disease Evaluated According to Recommended Therapies) registry 2005 to 2022 were eligible and included if attending the 1-year follow-up. Patients with previous coronary intervention, hear
