[Metabolic therapy of cardiopathies, based on the biochemical physiopathology of the myocardium].
An updated and systematic account is given of cardiometabolic therapy by one who was among the first to investigate the biochemical pathology of the heart and the rational employment of biological substance in cardiological management. It is preceded by an explanation of the biochemical physiology of the myocardium and the metabolic changes associated with cardiac damage, and with heart failure in particular. The practical importance, effects and limits of metabolic cardiotherapy are assessed and its main fields of utilisation in current medical and cardiological practice are illustrated in the light of personal experience.
