Abstract:In animal models of heart failure (HF), resveratrol (RESV) reduced the disease progression and increased the survival rate.

This study aimed to evaluate the antioxidant effect of RESV on the cardiac autonomic balance and baroreflex sensitivity of HF rats induced by myocardial infarction (MI). Wistar rats were divided into the following groups: Control; Control + R… Show more
