Influence of drug therapy on myocardial hypertrophy in left ventricular failure.

abstract：:The prognosis for patients with congestive heart failure (CHF) is poor, with a mortality exceeding 50% within 5 years from diagnosis. This poor prognosis remains despite improved pharmacological therapy. Because the prevalence of sudden death among these patients is high, reported to exceed 40%, the prognostic importa...
