Afterload reduction by nifedipine--the acute haemodynamic response to exercise in hypertensive subjects.

abstract：:To examine whether increases in heart rate might be a common trigger of angina at rest, changes in heart rate, blood pressure and rate-pressure product during pain were compared with the ischaemic threshold (heart rate with ST segment shift > = 1 mm), determined by atrial pacing, in 272 patients with unstable angina. ...
