The study is looking at women who have ANOCA, a type of chest pain that happens when the tiny blood vessels in the heart don't work properly, even though the main arteries are clear. The goal is to learn more about these symptoms so doctors can improve diagnosis and care.
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 women who have chest pain but no major blockages in their heart arteries. It uses special tests to understand the cause and gives personalized treatment to help reduce symptoms and improve heart health.
This trial tests if exercise training can help people who have chest pain or shortness of breath even though their main heart arteries are not blocked. It focuses on those with small vessel disease in the heart, also known as INOCA.
This study compares two types of exercise training (high-intensity interval training vs. moderate-intensity continuous training) to see which is better for women with heart disease. You would be assigned randomly to one of the two exercise programs, and the study would last about 6 months.
This trial studies people who have chest pain (angina) due to problems with the heart’s small arteries, not a big blockage. It aims to test whether treatment approaches can help these patients by better understanding the cause of their heart-related symptoms.
