12/01/1996 - "Because dofetilide and risotilide did not affect AHmax at the 250-ms BCL, these drugs may be less effective at preventing AV nodal reentrant tachycardias than a drug such as clofilium that displays less rate dependency."
04/01/1990 - "The atrial arrhythmias were consistently terminated by procainamide and WY-48986 whereas bethanidine converted the tachycardias in one of the five dogs studied. "
