Effects of short- and long-term administration of nifedipine on serum lipoprotein metabolism in patients with mild hypertension.

abstract：:Understanding and controlling the consequences of myocardial ischemia requires us to acknowledge that we are dealing with a complex, dynamic, and highly variable process. The severity and progression of ischemic injury is not solely determined by the extent of oxygen deprivation, but by many other factors, including t...
