Effectiveness of invasive reperfusion therapy and standard medical treatment in AMI.

abstract：:Stereological methods under light and electron microscopy have been used to study the ventricular myocardium of rats exhausted by swimming exercise. The proportion of myocardial cell/interstitium diminishes with the exercise. This result is interpreted as a consequence of an intercellular edema which becomes more pron...
