Research Abstract |
Interaction in the heart between the administration of methamphetamine(MAP) and stress was investigated. The result suggests induction of an inflammatory condition such as damage to the myocardium, and indicated that these insults affected the circulatory system additively or synergistically. Long term interaction of Map and stress was also investigated, some interesting findings were obtained.
