Neurohormonal changes after acute myocardial infarction. Relationships with haemodynamic indices and effects of ACE inhibition.

abstract：INTRODUCTION:We investigated whether apolipoprotein A1 (ApoA1) could better identify patients with severe vessel damage than HDL-cholesterol in a population with recent acute myocardial infarction (AMI). METHODS:One hundred and forty-one male patients (mean age: 54.3 +/- 7.3 years) who had undergone coronary angiograp...
