Ácido úrico: una molécula con acciones paradójicas en la insuficiencia cardiaca
Complications and mortality of heart failure are high, despite the availability of several forms of treatment. Uric acid, the end product of purine metabolism would actively participate in the pathophysiology of heart failure. However, there is no consensus about its action in cardiovascular disease...
