Resumo

Increases in plasma concentrations of a num- ber of neuroendocrine substances are well documented after myocardial infarction.The objectives of this paper are to describe the time course of neuroendocrine activation after myocardial infarction, the evidence for activa- tion of the cardiac renin-angiotensin system, possible causes and consequences of neuroen- docrine activation, the influence of patient genotype on outcome, and the ability of early neuroendocrine activation to predict progno- SiS.
