New Aspects in the Treatment of Failing Heart

New Aspects in the Treatment of Failing Heart edited by Hisakazu Yasuda, Hideaki Kawaguchi.

Molecular biology and biochemical techniques, the avant-garde of medical research, are now also being used to investigate cardiovascular events. The fifty-one selected contributions in this volume based on the 14th International Society of Heart Research (ISHR) Meeting in 1992 document the discoveri...
