Reduction of QTc interval dispersion. Potential mechanism of cardiac protection of pyridostigmine bromide
OBJECTIVE: Parasympathetic dysfunction is an independent risk factor in individuals with coronary artery disease, and cholinergic stimulation is a potential therapeutical option. We determined the effects of pyridostigmine bromide, a reversible anticholinesterase agent, on electrocardiographic varia...
