Study: Heart Failure Effect of coenzyme Q10 therapy in patients with congestive heart failure: a long-term multicenter randomized study. Morisco C; Trimarco B; Condorelli M Clinical Investigation 1993;71(8 Suppl):S134-6 The improved cardiac function in patients with congestive heart failure treated with coenzyme Q10 supports the hypothesis that this condition is characterized by mitochondrial dysfunction and […] More

Study: Heart Failure Perspectives on therapy of cardiovascular diseases with coenzyme Q10 (ubiquinone). Mortensen SA Clinical Investigation 1993;71(8 Suppl):S116-23 A defective myocardial energy supply–due to lack of substrates and/or essential cofactors and a poor utilization efficiency of oxygen–may be a common final pathway in the progression of myocardial diseases of various etiologies. The vitamin-like essential […] More

Study: Heart Failure Treatment of congestive heart failure with coenzyme Q10 illuminated by meta-analyses of clinical trials. Soja AM; Mortensen SA Molecular Aspects of Medicine 1997;18 Suppl:S159-68 The purpose of this was to investigate the effect of coenzyme Q10 (CoQ10) in patients with congestive heart failure (CHF) by measuring the possible improvement of certain relevant […] More

Study: Heart Failure L-carnitine treatment for congestive heart failure–experimental and clinical study. Kobayashi A; Masumura Y; Yamazaki N Japanese Circulation Journal 1992 Jan;56(1):86-94 To evaluate the therapeutic efficacy of l-carnitine in heart failure, the myocardial carnitine levels and the therapeutic efficacy of l-carnitine were studied in cardiomyopathic BIO 14.6 hamsters and in patients with chronic […] More

Study: Heart Failure Usefulness of coenzyme Q10 in clinical cardiology: a long-term study. Langsjoen H; Langsjoen P; Langsjoen P; Willis R; Folkers K Molecular Aspects of Medicine 1994;15 Suppl:s165-75 Over an eight year period (1985-1993), we treated 424 patients with various forms of cardiovascular disease by adding coenzyme Q10 (CoQ10) to their medical regimens. Doses […] More

Study: Heart Failure A randomised, double-blind, placebo-controlled trial of L-carnitine in suspected acute myocardial infarction. Singh RB; Niaz MA; Agarwal P; Beegum R; Rastogi SS; Sachan DS Postgraduate Medical Journal 1996 Jan;72(843):45-50 In a randomised, double-blind placebo-controlled trial, the effects of the administration of oral L-carnitine (2 g/day) for 28 days were compared in the […] More

Study: Heart Failure Randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled study of ascorbate on the preventive effect of nitrate tolerance in patients with congestive heart failure. Watanabe H; Kakihana M; Ohtsuka S; Sugishita Y Circulation 1998 Mar 10;97(9):886-91 BACKGROUND: Reduced cGMP production caused by increased superoxide has been proposed as a mechanism of nitrate tolerance during continuous nitrate therapy.
