Nitrate supplement for chest pain in women
Part of Heart & circulation, Pain clinical trials.
This trial tests whether taking a simple nitrate supplement (similar to the nitrates in beets) can improve blood flow in the tiny vessels of the heart for women who have chest pain but no blockages in their major arteries. It may help if your heart's small vessels aren't working as well as they should.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.

- You are a woman aged 18 or older.
- You have had chest pain that led to a heart catheterization or CT scan of your heart arteries within the last 2 years.

This trial tests a diabetes medication called SGLT2 inhibitors to see if it can improve blood flow to the heart and reduce chest pain in women who have small vessel heart disease (microvascular dysfunction) but not blocked large arteries. Participants will take the medication and be monitored for symptom relief and heart function improvements.
This study helps women with chest pain or heart symptoms who have normal-looking coronary arteries (the blood vessels that feed the heart). Researchers will perform specialized heart tests to understand why you have symptoms, then tailor treatment based on your specific condition.
This study tests whether different exercise intensities combined with a beetroot-based nitrate supplement can improve blood vessel health in post-menopausal women who do not currently exercise regularly.
This trial tests whether adding a nitrate supplement to metformin helps people with prediabetes. It looks at how the two treatments interact, especially when you start exercising. The study might help you if you have prediabetes, are between 18 and 60 years old, and don't exercise much.
This trial tests whether a common food additive (nitrates) can help your heart recover faster when you have a serious pulmonary embolism. It is for people with a recent clot and signs of heart strain, but who are not on specific blood thinners or other nitrate medicines.
This study tests whether taking a nitrate supplement (from foods like beets) while doing a guided exercise program helps older adults get more health benefits from exercise. Researchers want to see if nitrates improve heart and muscle function.
