ABSTRACT: Background
Qi Li Qiang Xin (QLQX) capsule has a solid theoretical basis and clinical efficacy in the treatment of chronic heart failure; however, the underlying mechanisms remain obscure. This study was designed to determine the effect of the QLQX on the treatment of heart failure and delineate the underlying mechanisms via a nontargeted metabolomics and lipidomics approach.Methods
A rat model of heart failure after myocardial infarction (MI) was established via permanent ligation of the anterior descending branch of the left coronary artery. The rats were then randomly divided into the SHAM group, the MI group, the QLQX group (1.3 g/kg/day), and the VAL (valsartan) group (80 mg/kg/day). Cardiac function was measured via echocardiography. The levels of serum NT-proBNP and h
