Relationship Between Peripheral Monocytosis and Nonrecovery of Left Ventricular Function in Patients With Left Ventricular Dysfunction Complicated With Acute Myocardial Infarction

Background Although ischemic heart failure is a major cause of mortality after acute myocardial infarction (AMI), the factors that may influence the nonrecovery of left ventricular function (LVF) after an AMI are still unclear. The aim of this study was to identify predictors of nonrecovery of LVF i...

Zusammenfassung:	Background Although ischemic heart failure is a major cause of mortality after acute myocardial infarction (AMI), the factors that may influence the nonrecovery of left ventricular function (LVF) after an AMI are still unclear. The aim of this study was to identify predictors of nonrecovery of LVF in patients with left ventricular (LV) dysfunction (defined as an echocardiographic ejection fraction (EF)
