Women are often sent home，thinking they are OKYet many are at high risk for a heart attackIn USA，researchers say as many as three million women could have coronary microvascular syndromeThe Journal of the American College of Cardiology recently published findings from a government studyThe study is called the Womens Ischemia Syndrome Evaluation(妇女缺血综合征的评价)，or WISEIschemic heart disease involves restricted blood flowThe study began in nineteen ninety-six and involves more than nine hundred women who suffer chest painResearchers found large blockages in major arteries in about one-third of the womenThe other women looked clear on an angiogram(血管造影)test for blockagesBut the researchers say half of them had enough buildup in small arteries to cause a heart attack within five yearsIn men and
