GCG and coronary artery disorder: In a study involving 14 patients with normal ejection fraction and CAD awaiting revascularization, normal saline and native GLP-1 were infused on two different occasions from 30 min before until 30 min after a dobutamine stress echocardiography for evaluation of the global LV function; native GLP-1 significantly improved LV function at peak stress and at 30 min into recovery, predominantly in ischemic segments [75].
