This study examined cardiopulmonary exercise test (CPET) variables in patients with and without LBBB and assessed the longitudinal development of left ventricular ejection...

Thus, we evaluated the exercise electrocardiograms of 164 patients who had also undergone coronary angiography within 6 months of the exercise test. The predictive value of a negative exercise electrocardiogram was determined for each percentage point...
