Previous studies have demonstrated that PARP-1 activation might be involved in vascular dysfunction associated with circulatory shock, heart failure, ischemia reperfusion injury, hypertension, and diabetes [19], [20], [21], [22].
The exclusion criteria included severe aortic stenosis, pulmonary thromboembolism, cardiac tamponade, cardiogenic shock, heart failure following cardiac surgery, or multi-organ failure.
