Outcome in medically treated coronary artery disease. Ischemic events: nonfatal infarction and death.

abstract：BACKGROUND:Preconditioning the heart before an ischemic insult has been shown to protect against contractile dysfunction, arrhythmias, and infarction. Pharmacological studies have suggested that fibroblast growth factor-2 (FGF2) is involved in cardioprotection. However, because of the number of FGFs expressed in the he...
