“…This finding provided experimental support for clinical observations in the mid-1980s, which suggested that post-myocardial infarction patients with a prior history of angina (i.e. myocardial ischaemia) demonstrated a better ejection fraction (Matsuda et al 1984). These data contributed to the concept that exposure to (non-lethal) cardiac ischaemia in the period preceding coronary ischaemia may protect against the impact of reperfusion of the occluded artery on the magnitude of myocardial damage.…”

“…In a study by Matsuda et al 9 , where the ventricular function of 31 patients with total occlusion of the anterior descending coronary artery and stenosis <70% in any other coronary artery was assessed, 16 patients had no history of previous angina. Patients with angina prior to acute myocardial infarction showed better ejection fraction, a lower percentage of abnormalities in contractile segments and in regional motility of the cardiac wall, suggesting that previous angina contributes to preservation of postinfarction ventricular function 7 .…”

“…It has not yet been established whether any of the risk factors has an independent participation in the instability of the plaque for triggering myocardial infarction as the first manifestation of ischemic heart disease 7 . Acute myocardial infarction with no previous angina has been suggested to be more prevalent in young males, and to relate to impairment of a single vessel and a better clinical evolution [8][9][10] . Other studies disagree about the importance of these risk factors 10 .…”

“…Preconditioning is the paradoxical phenomenon by which brief episodes of ischemia increase the tolerance of the heart to a subsequent major ischemic insult. In animal models, preconditioning by brief ischemia is the most powerful intervention capable of limiting the amount of necrosis due to coronary artery occlusion [34,35]; likewise, in the clinical setting, patients experiencing preinfarction angina score significantly better than those in whom myocardial infarction occurs unheralded [36][37][38][39][40][41][42]. Importantly, small amount of oxidants seem to be involved in mediating preconditioning, and antioxidant treatment indeed abolishes preconditioning in experimental models [43][44][45].…”
