  • Abstract
    Smoking a cigarette with a high nicotine content induced an abrupt reduction in coronary flow reserve. This reduction may have been mediated by nicotine or some other unknown substance influenced by smoking. Smoking a cigarette with a high nicotine content may lower the ischemic threshold by reducing the coronary vasodilatory capacity in patients with coronary artery disease.
