Key result
Nitroglycerin's mode of action in angina pectoris remains uncertain, with previous studies failing to correlate its haemodynamic effects during exercise with the prevention of pain.
Why the study?
Does nitroglycerin prevent pain during exercise by altering haemodynamic responses in patients with angina pectoris?

Uncertainty in nitroglycerin mechanism warrants no practice change; leaves open haemodynamic correlation during exercise.
Does nitroglycerin prevent pain during exercise by altering haemodynamic responses in patients with angina pectoris?
The text introduces a study aiming to correlate the haemodynamic effects of nitroglycerin during exercise with the prevention of angina pain to determine its mechanism of action.
B. F. Robinson (1968) studied Angina pectoris. Nitroglycerin was evaluated. Nitroglycerin's mode of action in angina pectoris remains uncertain, with previous studies failing to correlate its haemodynamic effects during exercise with the prevention of pain.
