Abstract:
:The RUSSLAN study, which randomised 504 patients with post-infarction heart failure in whom intravenous inotropic support might be deemed appropriate, was presented for the first time in a hotline session at the annual meeting of the Working Group on Heart Failure of the European Society of Cardiology. The study suggested that levosimendan, a new calcium sensitising agent, could be used safely in patients with post-infarction heart failure in the absence of severe hypotension and that it appeared to improve symptoms and survival. If these results can be confirmed it would render it unique among intravenous inotropic agents.

临床试验,杂志文章,随机对照试验abstract:BACKGROUND:Heart failure is common in diabetes and ischaemic heart disease is the most likely link. Still, it has been suggested that the relation extends beyond such disease. METHODS:7060 subjects with two or more visits in the Reykjavík Study were followed--during 30 years from 1967. All underwent oral glucose toler...
