There are numerous pathophysiological mechanisms unequally responsible for the cardiac syndrome X development. The most important is endothelium and smooth muscle cells dysfunction that can intensify vasoconstriction and depress both endothelium-dependant and endothelium-independent vasodilatation, finally leading to coronary micro vascular dysfunction as the basis of the cardiac syndrome X pathogenesis. Together with other possible mechanisms of pathogenesis, studying the importance of increased cell membrane Na+-Li+-countertransport activity seems promising. If was found that a significant number of patients with cardiac syndrome X have increased Na+-Li+-countertransport activity, which is an in vitro marker of Na+-H+-antiporter. Therefore, it is important to measure Na+-Li+-countertransport speed in patients with coronary heart disease, because its high levels increases the chance for cardiac syndrome X, which is a coronary heart disease with no anatomic signs of coronary arteries involvement.

Abstract Background: Cardiac syndrome X (CSX) is regarded as a form of ischemic heart disease with functional coronary microvascular abnormalities. This abnormal functioning of coronary microvasculature, often associated with endothelial dysfunction, results in a reduced coronary blood flow reserve. The incidence of CSX in patients undergoing invasive diagnostics for coronary heart disease was approximately 20–30%. Moreover, about 60–70% of CSX patients are female. The CSX symptoms are often debilitating and sufferers have a poor quality of life, with costly demand for healthcare services. METHODS The quasi-experimental survey was conducted in a teaching hospital. In this study, 100 Iranian outpatients who were referred to the heart clinic were recruited by randomized sampling. CSX patients were asked to fill out the demographic characteristics form and questionnaires in pre-test then after the period of intervention has been performed the post-test. Results: The independent t-test for continuous variable and chi - square test for categorical variables were used. There was no significant difference between two groups for all demographic of intervention and control groups, and RM-Manova was done for main research variables. The result revealed that score of knowledge on CSX risk factors was significantly higher in the experimental group (mean = 20.96) & (SD = 1.77), compared with the control group (mean = 16.32) & (SD = 3.12). Conclusion The mobile health messaging intervention significantly is useful for CSX Patients. The educational programs and Lifestyle modification represent a highly effective and low-cost intervention in order to improve the adherence to a healthy lifestyle among cardiac patients.

Caga Status

Cytotoxin-associated gene A (CagA) may induce a persistent systemic inflammatory response in cardiac syndrome X (CSX). We aimed to evaluate relationship of CagA status and high sensitivity C-reactive protein (hs-CRP) in CSX patients. Sixty CSX patients and 60 gender matched controls were enrolled. Plasma samples were tested in terms of the presence of IgG antibody to Helicobacterpylori (anti-H. pylori) and CagA (anti-CagA) using ELISA method. Also, plasma level of hs-CRP was measured by ELISA method. CSX patients were detected to have significantly higher plasma hs-CRP level in comparison with the control ones (3.64 ± 3.07 vs. 0.54 ± 0.49, µg/ml, P = 0.0001). Plasma levels of hs-CRP in CSX patients with anti-CagA+ were significantly higher than those in anti-CagA(-) (CSX: 4.66±3.63 vs. 2.58±1.95 µg/ml, P = 0.011). Also, plasma levels of hs-CRP in the controls with anti-CagA+ were significantly higher than those in anti-CagA- (1.05±0.68 vs. 0.32±0.31 µg/ml, respectively, P = 0.004). The present data suggested that CagA status was probably associated with susceptibility to severe CSX by causing inflammation. The evidence for this hypothesis indicated that levels of hs-CRP increased in anti-CagA+ patients compared to the anti-CagA- ones.
