Journal ArticleDOI
Optimizing thrombolytic therapy of acute myocardial infarction.
TL;DR: Thrombolytic therapy of acute myocardial infarction has now reached the stage at which the clinical value of the technique for many patients has been clearly established and is no longer in dispute, and it is now undergoing clinical application.
Journal ArticleDOI
Prognostic significance of the Karnofsky Performance Status score in patients with acute myocardial infarction: comparison with the left ventricular ejection fraction and the exercise treadmill test performance. The MILIS Study Group.

TL;DR: In patients who presented with acute myocardial infarction, a lower KPS score 3 weeks before the index infarctions was associated with a higher incidence of congestive heart failure, in-hospital cardiac arrest, and mortality during hospitalization, as compared with patients with KPS scores greater than or equal to 8.
Journal ArticleDOI
Studies on digitalis. VI. Reduction of the oxygen debt after exercise with digoxin in cardiac patients without heart failure.
TL;DR: It would appear that digitalis administration is beneficial to at least some patients who have cardiac disease and enlarged hearts and some decrease in cardiac reserve without signs or symptoms of heart failure.
Journal ArticleDOI
Left ventriculo-right atrial communication
TL;DR: The definitive diagnosis was established by selective angiocardiography with left ventricular injection in three patients and at operation in the fourth and the importance of preoperative recognition of the lesion and the results of surgical treatment in two patients are discussed.
Journal ArticleDOI

Eugene Braunwald,Attilio Maseri,Paul W. Armstrong,Robert M. Califf,W. Brian Gibler,Christian W. Hamm,Maarten L. Simoons,Frans Van de Werf +7 more
TL;DR: Platelet glycoprotein (GP) IIb/IIIa blockade has the potential to advance treatment of acute coronary syndromes, both as a primary pharmacologic approach and an adjunct to interventional treatment strategies as discussed by the authors.
