Early remodelling of the left ventricle in patients with myocardial infarction.

abstract：:We investigated cardiovascular and coronary responses to intravenous infusions of adrenaline, which raised arterial concentrations in a stepwise fashion from basal to about 5-6 nmol.l-1, in 11 non-rejecting heart transplanted patients, and in eight intact innervated subjects. Cardiac adrenaline extraction and noradren...
