Fibroblast growth factor 21 is associated with widening QRS complex and prolonged corrected QT interval in patients with stable angina
Abstract Background Fibroblast growth factor 21 (FGF21) is produced by cardiac cells, may acts in an autocrine manner, and was suggested to has a cardioprotective role in atherosclerosis. Wide QRS complex and heart rate-corrected QT interval (QTc interval) prolongation are associated to dangerous ve...
