Late potentials recording with a precordial signal-averaged electrocardiogram in 53 consecutive patients with a first acute myocardial infarction: incidence and early natural history.

abstract：BACKGROUND:There is a growing body of evidence that advanced glycation end products (AGE) and their receptor (RAGE) system are implicated in chronic kidney disease (CKD). We have previously found that a long-acting calcium channel blocker, azelnidipine, but not amlodipine, improves renal injury in CKD patients. However...
