Limitations and caveats
Zinc acetate was poorly tolerated by some patients. Patients often commented on GI upset (nausea) and reflux symptoms at follow-up encounter. The myeloperoxidase assay demonstrated marked variability and test validity/quality is in question.

ListOutcomeTime frameDescription
PrimaryChange From Baseline in Markers of Cardiac Collagen Turnover (PINP) in Patients With Systolic Heart Failure and Compared With Healthy Controls.Baseline (time 0) and after 10 months of Zinc Acetate.
The intervention group (patients with systolic heart failure) was given Zinc Acetate 50 mg po three times daily for 10 months. The change from baseline in markers of cardiac collagen turnover (PINP) in patients with systolic heart failure after 10 months of zinc acetate was measured and compared with a single measure from healthy controls.

Power was determined using prior studies examining the change in PINP and (separately) PIIINP in heart failure following administration of aldactone. Results below are PINP. For Controls, a single measure was obtained without further followup.
