Enoximone: true inotropic effects? Do they cause ischemia? Analysis of end-systolic pressure-volume relations using the conductance (volume) catheter technique.

abstract：PURPOSE:The PPAR-alpha agonists (fibrates) are commonly used in the treatment of dyslipidemia. It has been hypothesized that the cardio-protective effects of fibrates are partially due to immunomodulatory effects. However, there is a paucity of data regarding the effect of fibrates on neutrophilic chemokines such as ep...
