The purpose of this study is to clarify the relation between coronary stenosis and its background in patients with angina pectoris.
The subjects were 35 cases, aged 36-64 years without congenital heart disease, valvular disease, cardiomyopathy, myocarditis and myocardial infarction. As the items, age, coronary artery diameter, left ventricular mass, ejection fraction, aortic diameter, QRS voltage, ST-T changes, Master's two step test, atherogenic index, GTT, obesity index, cigarettes and blood pressure were taken. Each item was classified into two categories and then analyzed by quantification theory type III.
As the result of this study, the obvious correlations were observed in following three groups; 1) severe coronary stenosis, ST-T ischemic change and positive in Master's two step test. 2) hypertension and left ventricular hypertrophy. 3) increased atherogenic index and diabetes mellitus.
