Remote Ischemic Preconditioning Induces Myocardial RISK Signaling Pathway in Patients Undergoing Valvular Heart Surgery

November 19, 2016 updated by: Yonsei University
The aim of this study is to investigate whether RIPC protects the heart against ischemia reperfusion injury on the concentrically hypertrophied myocardium
