Effects of a newly synthesized dihydropyridine, NZ-105, on intracellular Ca transients and tension in ferret ventricular muscles.

abstract：:Ambulatory blood pressure monitoring (ABPM) is increasingly used in the clinical evaluation of hypertension. However, a number of limitations restrict its routine use. One of the limitations is a lack of definite conclusions about ambulatory blood pressure normality, because of the shortcomings of previous studies on ...
