A heart transplant center experience with basiliximab induction strategies: A double edged sword?
Abstract Background The use of induction immunosuppression for heart transplantation (HT) is debated given the uncertain benefit and potential risks of infection and malignancy. Methods This is a retrospective single‐center analysis of 475 consecutive HT recipients from 2003 to 2020 grouped by use of induction with basiliximab group (BG) and the no ...

Single‐Center Outcomes of Epstein–Barr Virus DNAemia in Adult Solid Organ Transplant Recipients
Background. Immunosuppression in solid organ transplantation (SOT) increases the risk of Epstein–Barr virus (EBV) DNAemia, which may herald development of posttransplant lymphoproliferative disease (PTLD). Few studies have characterized the incidence, risk factors, and clinical impact of EBV DNAemia in adult SOT recipients (SOTR). Methods.

Stress Effect of Antilymphocyte Serum [PDF]
Antilymphocyte serum prepared in the rabbit against guinea-pig lymph node cells produces a sustained weight loss when injected into normal guinea-pigs over 14 days, compared with a very transient loss produced by normal rabbit serum. Antilymphocyte serum also produces a much greater increase in plasma cortisol level than normal rabbit serum.

Fulminant Myocarditis with SARS‐CoV‐2 Infection: A Narrative Review from the Case Studies
One of the severe complications of the severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS‐CoV‐2) infection is myocarditis. However, the characteristics of fulminant myocarditis with SARS‐CoV‐2 infection are still unclear. We systematically reviewed the previously reported cases of fulminant myocarditis associated with SARS‐CoV‐2 infection from ...

Background: The risk of cytokine release syndrome (CRS) in patients with infections prior to chimeric antigen receptor T‐cell (CAR T‐cell) therapy represents an important and underreported event. Patients with active infections needing prompt CAR T‐cell therapy to treat aggressive hematologic malignancies remain a clinical challenge.
