The kinetocardiogram during the isoproterenol test for the assessment of coronary heart disease.

abstract：BACKGROUND AND AIMS:Most cases of infective endocarditis are caused by nonenterococcal streptococci. The emergence of strains resistant to penicillin is increasingly recognized worldwide. This study sought to assess the effect of penicillin resistance on presentation and outcome of streptococcal endocarditis. METHODS:...
