Abstract
BACKGROUND Coronary Artery Disease is an ischemic or necrotic heart disease caused by myocardial hypoxia caused by coronary artery stenosis or occlusion. The main symptoms are heart failure and recurrent angina pectoris. Continuous nursing refers to the nursing mode from in-hospital nursing to out-of-hospital nursing, including guiding patients' follow-up treatment and lifestyle, which can effectively improve the quality of life in patients with Coronary Artery Disease and reduce the number of angina attacks. The study implemented in this program will systematically evaluate the efficacy and safety of continuous nursing intervention on an angina attack and quality of life in Coronary Artery Disease, and provide evidence-based basis for clinical application of continuous nursing intervention in Coronary Artery Disease. METHOD The 2 researchers search the databases of China Knowledge Network, VP Information Chinese Journal Service Platform, PubMed, Embase, the Cochrane Library and Web of Science. From the establishment of the database in December 2020, all the randomized controlled trials on continuous nursing intervention for Coronary Artery Disease are collected. The relevant data are extracted and the quality is evaluated. meta-analysis is performed on the included literature using Stata15.0 software. RESULT In this study, the efficacy and safety of continuous nursing intervention on Coronary Artery Disease are evaluated by Seattle angina questionnaire and other indicators. CONCLUSION This study will provide reliable evidence for the clinical application of nursing intervention in Coronary Artery Disease. ETHICS AND DISSEMINATION Private information from individuals will not be published. This systematic review also does not involve endangering participant rights. Ethical approval will not be required. The results may be published in a peer-reviewed journal or disseminated at relevant conferences. OSF REGISTRATION NUMBER DOI 10.17605/OSF.IO/7QRKV.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Mibefradil is a T-type calcium-channel antagonist and arterial vasodilator with negative chronotropic effects. It is not known if T-type calcium-channel blockade is superior to L-type calcium-channel blockade in patients with stable angina pectoris. METHODS A multicenter, randomized, double-blind trial was conducted in patients with documented coronary disease and stable angina to compare a 360 mg dose of diltiazem CD with 100 mg dose of mibefradil. The primary end point was change in time to symptom-limited exercise termination from baseline to 8 weeks. Secondary efficacy parameters included time to onset of persistent ST-segment depression, time to awareness of angina, and change in exercise duration from baseline to 2 and 4 weeks of treatment. RESULTS A total of 121 patients were randomized to mibefradil and 113 to diltiazem CD. At 8 weeks, the increase in exercise duration was 24.5 seconds greater in the mibefradil group (P =.017; 95% CI 4.4-44.7 seconds). At 8 weeks, time to development of > or =1 mm ST-segment depression was greater by 45.3 seconds (P =.0025; 95% CI 16.2-74.5) with mibefradil, but time to development of angina was not significantly different. CONCLUSION T-type calcium-channel antagonism with mibefradil improved treadmill exercise parameters compared with diltiazem in patients with chronic stable angina. Further investigation and development of antagonists of T-type calcium channels with fewer adverse drug interactions is warranted and may be promising in the management of ischemic heart disease.
