To explore the clinical application of magnetocardiography (MCG) as a diagnostic tool for patients with myocardial infarction with non-obstructive coronary arteries (MINOCA).
Approach:
Case Series: The study presents two cases of patients diagnosed with non-ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (NSTEMI) confirmed as MINOCA, who underwent MCG despite normal serial ECG findings.
Key Findings:
MCG detected infarction-related waveform features in both patients despite normal ECGs.
Cardiac catheterization confirmed no coronary artery stenosis in both cases.
Cardiac magnetic resonance (CMR) validated the diagnostic accuracy of MCG.
Interpretation:
Limitations:
The study is based on a small case series, limiting generalizability.
Further larger-scale investigations are needed to validate the findings.
In a randomized crossover trial of insulin-treated patients receiving hemodialysis, real-time continuous glucose monitoring did not improve the primary hypoglycemia outcome but increased time in range and reduced time above range vs capillary testing.
