Plasma homocysteine and the severity of heart failure in patients with previous myocardial infarction.
Journal Title: Cardiology Journal - Year 2011, Vol 18, Issue 1
Abstract
Homocysteine is considered to be a risk factor, or an indicator of risk, for the development of cardiovascular disease. Little data is available on its significance in patients with previous myocardial infarction. The aim of our study was to assess the plasma level of homocysteine and its relationship with the severity of heart failure in patients with chronic myocardial infarction.
