Acute electrocardiographic effects of captopril in the initial treatment of malignant or severe hypertension.

abstract：BACKGROUND:Physician adherence to guidelines is often poor, but the reasons have not been completely studied. We investigated whether physician adherence to guidelines for percutaneous transluminal coronary angioplasty (PTCA) and coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG) varied by source, development methods, or the exten...
