Paclitaxel balloon coating, a novel method for prevention and therapy of restenosis.

abstract：BACKGROUND:Although type B aortic dissection has been treated with beta blockers to lower the arterial blood pressure (BP), there has been little evidences about reduction in heart rate (HR). We assessed whether tight HR control improved the outcome of medical treatment in patients with aortic dissection. METHODS AND ...
