Efficiency of L-arginine and L-carnitine in the Complex Treatment of Patients With Acute Myocardial Infarction and Comorbid Metabolic Syndrome by Shved M., Pelo M.

“…The comparative analysis of the structural and functional parameters of the heart, according to echocardiographic data of 34 patients with MI who received standard protocol treatment with the corresponding parameters in 48 patients who had received additional treatment including L-arginine and L-carnitine, showed that the size of the left atrium was significantly lower in the examined test group (p = 0.02), and slight decrease of the aorta size, the thickness of the interventricular septum, the diastolic size of the left and right ventricles, which led to the significant increase of left ventricle ejection fraction by 9,1 % (p = 0.01). …”
