Brief Summary
This is a prospective cohort blinded study with the aim to investigate the prevalence and clinical impact of coronary microcirculatory dysfunction (CMD) in patients with ischemic heart disease, and its association with cerebral small vessel disease (CSVD) and depressive disorders. In addition, CMD and CSVD linkage to systemic inflammation and endothelial function will also be investigated.

Study Arms (1)
Study group
Patients with CAD undergoing FFR-guided revascularisation. FFR, coronary flow reserve (CFR) and the index of hyperemic microvascular resistance (HMR) will be measured with the Doppler guidewire (Combowire, Volcano - Philips corporation) under steady state hyperemia.
Interventions
Coronary Angiography according to clinical indication and Multimodal Coronary Physiology Study (FFR, CFR, HMR) for functional assessment of intermediate coronary lesions
Eligibility Criteria
Patients with stable coronary lesions (stable coronary disease or lesions in non-culprit vessels \>48 hours after acute coronary syndrome) with clinical indication to coronary angiography and intermediate coronary lesions (visual estimation) suitable for FFR-guided revascularization.
You may qualify if:
- Informed Consent available.
- Age ≥ 18 years.
- Stable coronary lesions.
- Indication to FFR: ≥ 1 intermediate coronary lesion (40-80% diameter stenosis) in a principal/secondary vessel with ≥ 2 mm reference diameter.
You may not qualify if:
- Previous myocardial infarction in the territory of distribution of the target vessel.
- Coronary Left Main severe stenosis.
- Aortic valve stenosis (moderate or severe) .
- Severe left ventricle hypertrophy.
- Left ventricle moderate systolic dysfunction (EF \< 35%).
- Contraindications to adenosine.
- Previous CABG with permeable grafts.
- Contraindication to stent implantation.
- Severe anemia.
- Coagulopathies or chronic anticoagulation.
- Platelets \< 75000 o \> 700.000.
- Previous stroke or intracranial hemorrhage.
- Contraindication to MRI.
- Chronic Renal Failure contraindicating gadolinium infusion during MRI: eGFR \< 60 ml/min), hemodialysis, previous renal transplantation.
- Pacemaker/ Implantable Cardioverter Device with contraindication to MRI.
- +2 more criteria
