Abstract:
:A 37-yr-old woman with an 8-month history of chest pain, unrelated to exercise, was successfully resuscitated from out-of-hospital cardiac arrest due to ventricular fibrillation. Cardiac catheterisation revealed minor coronary artery disease. Ergometrine injection was associated with complete occlusion of the left anterior descending coronary associated with identical chest pain and pronounced ST-segment changes.

杂志文章,评审abstract::In heart failure, in addition to the renin-angiotensin-aldosterone system and sympathetic nervous system, the natriuretic peptide (NP) system plays a fundamental role among compensating mechanisms. The NPs undergo rapid enzymatic degradation that limits their vasorelaxant, natriuretic, and diuretic actions. Degradatio...
