Resumen

En este trabajo se examina el papel del Síndrome ¡AHI! (Agresión, Hostilidad e Ira) y su relación con los trastornos coronarios. Se realiza una revisión de las definiciones de estos tres constructos, los diversos componentes de los mismos y la relación entre ellos. Se presenta el estudio de la evolución del estado de la investigación en estos componentes desde que se empieza a trabajar con ellos, los primeros trabajos, hasta la actualidad. Se realiza una recopilación de los trabajos más importantes de corte transversal y longitudinales que establecen o no una asociación entre ira, hostilidad y trastornos coronarios en varios grupos de población. Se hace una recopilación de los modelos existentes que explican la unión entre estos componentes y los trastornos coronarios desde varios puntos de vista. Por último, se comentan los puntos críticos y problemas que supone el estudio y valoración de la ira y la hostilidad.
