THERAPEUTIC EFFECT OF TRANSMYOCARDIAL LASER REVASCULARIZATION IN PATIENTS WITH CHEST PAIN AND NORMAL CORONARY ANGIOGRAPHY (CARDIAC SYNDROME X)
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Patients with syndrome X coronary disease represent a heterogeneous group of patients. Medical treatment with dilators and calcium channel blockers are not very effective. We evaluated the use of transmyocardial laser revascularization (TMLR) in treating 5 patients with this syndrome. Between May 2002 to December 2005, 5 patients with cardiac syndrome X (mean age of 49.7 years) underwent TMLR. All our cases were postmenopausal women. Mean class of Canadian class of angina was 3.4. Patients were none responding to maximum medical treatment. Angiograms showed small coronary arties with a large gap between branches which corresponded with severe ischemic on Thallium scan. We used Co2 laser between 35 to 45 joules of energy and we made 20 to 30 channels on the beating heart controlled by trans-esophagus echocardiography. Our patients were followed for 2.8 years. During follow up our patients remained asymptomatic and without any need medical treatment. Mean of Canadian class of angina after intervention was 1.8. Our patients returned to full activities. TMLR is an effective treatment in patients with syndrome X and coronary insufficiency.

Full frame machine prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one source (direct Gemma or distilled Codex), not a consensus.
