Is chronotropic incompetence a limitation in the evaluation of myocardial ischemia and prognosis?

abstract：BACKGROUND:Thrombomodulin (TM) -33G/A and Ala455Val polymorphisms have been indicated to be correlated with the risk of coronary artery disease (CAD), but study results are still inclusive. Thus, a meta-analysis was carried out. MATERIALS AND METHODS:Databases including PubMed, Embase, CNKI, and Web of Science (ISI) w...
