Effects of antiarrhythmic agents on cardiac function.

abstract：:Microalbuminuria (UAE) may be considered a marker of systemic vascular dysfunction, while pulse pressure (PP) is an indicator of the stiffness of vascular conduits. Both these parameters, together with left ventricular hypertrophy (LVH), are linked to cardiovascular morbidity in hypertensive patients. The aim of this ...
