    Abstract

    Between 10 and 20% of patients referred for coronary angiography because of chest pain are found to have normal coronary arteries.1 Some of them have esophageal dysfunction2 while others have been shown to have abnormal left ventricular function.3 This study determines whether patients with esophageal dysfunction could be distinguished from those without an esophageal abnormality on the basis of their clinical history. © 1988.
