.... Such a metabolic change may be beneficial in CHF (congestive heart failure). The ERGO (etomoxir for the recovery of glucose oxidation) study was designed in which etomoxir was tested at a dose of 80 and 40 mg compared with placebo for a period of 6 months in patients with CHF. As the principle measure of efficacy...

...Yuan-ping Hou; Jin-ling Wu; Qian Fan; Miao-bing Liu; Bao-ling Yin; Lin Zhang Recent studies suggest that cardiac myocyte apoptosis contributes to the progress of CHF (congestive heart failure). In the present study, we tested the hypothesis that metoprolol in conjunction with the standard treatment...
