Diabetic heart disease--Part II: The clinical and pathological spectrum.

abstract：BACKGROUND AND HYPOTHESIS:ST-segment depression during acute myocardial infarction (AMI) is known to herald serious hemodynamic complications. Since the mechanism of this dependence is not clear, we reinvestigated the old concept of papillary muscle infarction (PMI) as a cause of marked ST depression. METHODS:Autopsie...
