National French Registry of Spontaneous Coronary Artery Dissections: Prevalence of Fibromuscular Dysplasia and Genetic Analyses.

This nationwide cohort is a valuable resource for future clinical and genetic investigation to understand SCAD aetiology. PMID: 33319763 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher]
