Italian study on heart attacks without blocked arteries
Part of Heart & circulation clinical trials.
This study is looking at people who have had a heart attack but whose main heart arteries are not blocked — a condition called MINOCA. By joining, you'll help doctors learn more about this condition and how to best care for people like you.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You must be 18 years old or older.
- You must have a diagnosis of MINOCA — a heart attack with no major blockages in the heart arteries.
- You (or your legal guardian) must sign a consent form agreeing to join the study.

This study uses a special eye scan (OCTA) to look at tiny blood vessels in the eye and see if they can help predict outcomes for people who had a heart attack without blocked arteries (MINOCA). It compares these patients to others with typical heart attacks and healthy people.
This study looks at why some people have chest pain and heart injury signs, but their heart arteries are not blocked. It tests scans of blood flow and heart tissue to better understand the cause and guide care.
This study tests whether an implantable heart rhythm monitor can detect atrial fibrillation (an irregular heartbeat) in people who had a type of heart attack with non-obstructed arteries. The goal is to find a possible reason for the event so doctors can treat it appropriately.
This research study looks at why people with chest pain but clear heart arteries have low fitness. It tests whether a home-based interval training program (short bursts of hard exercise) can improve fitness and quality of life.
This study looks at people who have chest pain but don't have major blockages in their heart arteries. It aims to understand how the tiny blood vessels and artery spasms might be causing symptoms, using special heart tests.
This study looks at people who may have MINOCA (heart attack symptoms with no major artery blockage) or takotsubo syndrome (a temporary stress-related heart condition). The goal is to better understand these causes and how they should be diagnosed and treated.
