The combination of chlorthalidone with nifedipine does not exert an additive antihypertensive effect in essential hypertensives: a crossover multicenter study.

abstract：:Elevated levels of endogenous digoxin-like immunoreactivity have been reported in the body fluids of premature and full-term infants as well as in term pregnancy, in the amniotic fluid, and in human milk. Several lines of evidence suggest that these factors could also have biological properties in common with digitali...
