Transient left ventricular dilation is a well-known marker for coronary artery disease (CAD). However only a few data correlating severity and behavior over time of post-ischemic stunning with CAD extension are available. Therefore the purpose of this study was to evaluate the relationship among the duration of left ventricular contractile dysfunction induced by physical effort, the extent of reversible defects and the number of coronary vessels involved in the atherosclerotic process.

Abstract
Transient left ventricular dilation is a well-known marker for coronary artery disease (CAD). However only a few data correlating severity and behavior over time of post-ischemic stunning with CAD extension are available. Therefore the purpose of this study was to evaluate the relationship among the duration of left ventricular contractile dysfunction induced by physical effort, the extent of reversible defects and the number of coronary vessels involved in the atherosclerotic process.File in questo prodotto:
