The mean serum Zn levels of the patients with CHF were 92.9 +/- 18.9-mu-g/100 ml, and they showed a significant decrease when compared to controls (p < 0.05). The mean serum Cu levels, which were 173.6 +/- 26.6 mu-g/100 ml, showed a significant increase when compared to controls (p < 0.001). After digoxin therapy, a significant increase in Zn levels and a significant decrease in Cu levels were observed.eninfo:eu-repo/semantics/closedAccessCongestive Heart FailureZincCopperArticle3213338WOS:A1990ER990000052288016N/A
