Beneficial effects of intravenous iron therapy in a rat model of heart failure with preserved systemic iron status but depleted intracellular cardiac stores
Abstract Iron deficiency (ID) commonly occurs in chronic heart failure (HF) and is associated with poor prognosis. Neither its causes nor pathophysiological significance are clearly understood. We aimed to assess iron status and the effect of iron supplementation in the rat model of post-myocardial...
