title: Effects of eythropoietin administration on mitral regurgitation and left ventricular remodeling in heart failure patients.
abstract: The effects of erythropoietin administration on mitral regurgitation in patients with congestive heart failure have not yet been examined. After 2 months, erythropoietin treatment results in a significant reduction in left ventricular volumes and mitral regurgitation severity and improves hemodynamics.
