Plasma glycogen phosphorylase BB is associated with pulmonary artery wedge pressure and left ventricle mass index in patients with hypertrophic cardiomyopathy

Abstract

Plasma glycogenphosphorylase level, hemodynamic invasive and echocardiographic parameters were evaluated ina group of patients with hypertrophic cardiomyopathy. The study showed association of plasma glycogenphosphorylase level and pulmonary artery wedge pressue and left ventricular mass index in patients with hypertroophic cardiomyopathy.
