Admission serum potassium levels and prognosis of vasospastic angina
Abstract Hypokalemia is a common electrolyte disturbance and is related to poor prognosis in patients with cardiovascular disease. However, the role of hypokalemia in patients with vasospastic angina (VSA) has not yet been studied. The present study enrolled 1454 patients diagnosed with VSA accordin...
