Why the study?
Type D personality predisposes to psychological distress and negative behavioral characteristics that contribute to cardiovascular and comorbid diseases, motivating an evaluation of clinical and psychological correlations in chronic coronary syndrome.
Is type D personality associated with specific clinical and psychological characteristics in patients with chronic coronary syndrome?
Population
