Coronary Artery Disease

Brief summary

Prospective interventional study, open, non-comparative and non-randomized. The research concerns physiological parameters of the coronary and ocular blood circulation. At the coronary level, the curves of pressure and Doppler flow will be extracted from ComboMap® (Philips). The coronary microvascular resistances, basal and hyperemic, will be determined by the average ratio of the distal pressure and flow. At the ocular level, a fundus oculi and an OCTA (angiography by tomography in optical coherence) examination will be performed. The measures of the FFR and the coronary microvascular resistance will be determined by a guidewire allowing measures of pressure and by a guidewire allowing measures of Doppler flow (ComboWire®, Volcano), in 123 patients with intermediate stenosis of the left anterior descending artery (LDA). Topological parameters characterizing the retinal area and choriocapillaries will be determined by statistical approaches and mathematical morphology. To establish a predictor of the coronary microvascular resistance from the eye vascular parameters, we shall use a non-linear regression by supervised machine learning. The main cardiovascular risk factors (hypertension, diabetes, dyslipidemia, age, sex) will be part of predetermined input features for the machine learning.

Interventions

OTHEROCTA (angiography by tomography in optical coherence)

The study concerns patients with intermediate stenosis of the left anterior descending artery (LDA). A fundus oculi and an OCTA (angiography by tomography in optical coherence) examination will be performed; it's a non-invasive imaging test. OCT uses light waves to take cross-section pictures of your retina and then ophthalmological examination data will correlate with coronary angiography.

Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frameDescription
Coronary microvascular resistance results (Combowire)Day 1Estimed by Combowire During coronary angiography, coronary resistance will be measured by pressure and Doppler guides in patients with intermediate coronary stenosis according to the usual procedure. Correlation between results of Combowire® coronary microvascular resistance and OCTA ophthalmologic findings. A machine learning technique will be used to analyze this series of ocular data and to determine a predictor of post-treatment coronary microvascular resistance.
Coronary microvascular resistance results (OCTA)Day 1Estimated by ophthalmological examinations data from OCTA. An examination of fundus of the eye will then be performed by optical coherence tomography angiography without injection PLEX Elite 9000. Correlation between results of Combowire® coronary microvascular resistance and OCTA ophthalmologic findings. A machine learning technique will be used to analyze this series of ocular data and to determine a predictor of post-treatment coronary microvascular resistance.
