SECONDARY outcome
Timeframe: Baseline and 48 weekAt 48 week,WHO/NYHA functional class was assessed for change in WHO/NYHA functional class.Change NYHA is measured as decrease or increase in NYHA class in the subjects compared with baseline. NYHA /WHO functional class is described below: NYHA functional class I:no symptoms and no limitation in ordinary physical activity NYHA functional class II:Mild symptoms (mild shortness of breath and/or angina) and slight limitation during ordinary activity NYHA functional class III:Marked limitation in activity due to symptoms, even during less-than-ordinary activity NYHA functional class IV:Severe limitations. Experiences symptoms even while at rest A higher functional class represent worse symptoms.
