After treatment for 1 year,plasma levels of restenosis markers including endothelin-1,CRP,NO were tested; Coronary arteriography was carried out to reveal the restenosis situation; Angina attack frequencies were also recorded. RESULTS:66 cases in allicin group vs.57 in conventional therapy group had no recurrence of angina,with the effective rate being 88% in allicin group vs.76% in conventional therapy group,showing significant differences between the two groups (P
