Study Design and Rationale of "A Multicenter, Open-Labeled, Randomized Controlled Trial Comparing MIdazolam Versus MOrphine in Acute Pulmonary Edema": MIMO Trial.

abstract：:There is considerable evidence implicating a key role for p38 mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK) in ischemic and pharmacological preconditioning against myocardial infarction. However, there have been few, if any, studies examining the role of p38 MAPK in the protection of stunned myocardium. The purpose of this ...
