Biodegradable polymer drug-eluting stents versus second-generation drug-eluting stents for patients with coronary artery disease: an update meta-analysis.

abstract：:The purpose of the present study was to test whether the administration of a vascular-selective organic calcium antagonist (nisoldipine) at the onset of early mechanical reperfusion (by coronary angioplasty) in acute myocardial infarction could prevent or attenuate postischemic stunning and enhance the recovery of lef...
