Effect of Beta-blockers on Coronary Flow and Resistance in Patients With ANOCA

The goal of this clinical trial is to learn whether beta-blockers can improve coronary blood flow and reduce resistance in patients with angina and no obstructive coronary arteries (ANOCA). The main questions it aims to answer are: * Do beta-blockers improve coronary blood flow in patients with ANOCA? * Do beta-blockers reduce coronary microvascular resistance in these patients? Researchers will compare a beta-blocker to a placebo to see if the medication has measurable effects on coronary circulation. Participants will: * Receive a beta-blocker or a placebo * Undergo specialized heart tests (such as coronary flow and resistance measurements) before and after treatment.

Evaluation of the Impact of Pulsed Field Ablation on Autonomic Nervous System Modulation in Paroxysmal Atrial Fibrillation

The objective of this clinical trial is to evaluate the impact of pulse field (PF) energy, both alone and in combination with radiofrequency (RF) energy, on vagal modulation during point-by-point pulmonary vein isolation (PVI) in patients with paroxysmal atrial fibrillation (PAF). The effect of PF energy on ganglionated plexi (GP) will be assessed using heart rate variability (HRV) as a surrogate marker. Participants will be randomized into three groups: the PF-only group and the Hybrid group (PF posterior/RF anterior) as the experimental arms, and the RF-only group as the control arm. HRV will be measured before and 24 hours after the PVI procedure. Additionally, cardio and neuro biomarkers (Troponin and S100B) will be measured pre-procedure and 20 minutes post-ablation. All participants will be followed for 12 months, with 24-hour Holter-ECG evaluations scheduled at 3, 6, and 12 months after the initial ablation procedure.
