Adenosine test in the diagnosis of unexplained syncope: marker of conducting tissue disease or neurally mediated syncope?

abstract：AIMS:Recent data from national registries suggest that acute heart failure (AHF) outcomes might vary in men and women, however, it is not known whether this observation is universal. The aim of this study was to evaluate the association of biological sex and 1-year all-cause mortality in patients with AHF in various re...
