Conditions
Brief summary
the study is to evaluate the effect of tuna-based nuggets on cardiomyopathy patients. participants were recruited from cardiology hospital and selenium dose in form of nuggets were given to patients that were enrolled in treatment group for three months. the finding were improved biomarker level(IL-6) and lab investigations.
Detailed description
