Procedural and anatomical predictors of renal denervation efficacy using two radiofrequency renal denervation catheters in a porcine model.

abstract：OBJECTIVES:Genetic variants that influence large conductance calcium-activated potassium channel's function may alter arterial function and contribute to the known heritability of arterial stiffness and blood pressure. The beta1-subunit (KCNMB1) of the large conductance calcium-activated potassium channel includes two ...
