TL;DR: The results indicate that T30 is mediated primarily by vagal reactivation, independent of sympathetic withdrawal, and is significantly smaller in athletes and significantly larger in patients with chronic heart failure than that in respective age-matched normal control subjects.

TL;DR: It is suggested that inhibition of HB-EGF shedding could be a potent therapeutic strategy for cardiac hypertrophy and that dominant-negative expression of ADAM12 abrogated this signaling.

TL;DR: AF is a common complication in patients with AMI who are treated with PCI and independently influences 1-year mortality and Multivariate Cox regression analysis revealed that AF was an independent predictor of 1- year mortality but was not a predictor of in-hospital mortality.

TL;DR: Pravastatin, at the dose serum cholesterol was not normalized, restored the IS-limiting effect of IP and IP-induced ecto-5'-nucleotidase activation, which were both blunted by hypercholesterolemia.

TL;DR: Data support the hypothesis that some SNPs are specific to particular ethnic groups, as well as the allelic frequencies of some of the polymorphisms, which were significantly different from those reported in European populations.
