Effect of propranolol on ventricular repolarization and refractoriness: role of beta-blockade versus direct membrane effects.

abstract：PURPOSE:In addition to lowering hemoglobin A1C, colesevelam has been shown to improve the atherogenic lipoprotein profile of subjects with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) when used in combination with metformin and/or sulfonylureas. A recent study evaluated the effects of colesevelam as antidiabetes monotherapy in adul...
