The angina pectoris controversy during the 1920s
Acta Physiol Scand Suppl.

Abstract
This paper examines the evidence for and against the various rival theories for the explanation of pain in angina pectoris. It is shown that the counterarguments used during the 1920s against the coronary theory had not been answered a decade later when the coronary theory was generally accepted by the research and clinical community.
