Comparative Analysis of Pressure Drop (Δp): Hemodynamic Performance of Three Commercial Oxygenators During Cardiopulmonary Bypass

open access: yesArtificial Organs, Volume 50, Issue 4, Page 564-571, April 2026.
In this prospective study, a total of 60 patients were divided into three groups of 20 to compare the pressure drop (Δp) across three different oxygenators during cardiopulmonary bypass. The aim of this comparison was to enable evidence‐based optimization of the heart‐lung machine setup in order to minimize potential influencing factors and thereby ...

New Insights on Heat Shock Proteins as Regulators of Reactive Oxygen Species Across Various Stressors in Diseases

open access: yesCell Biochemistry and Function, Volume 44, Issue 2, February 2026.
ABSTRACT Living beings are persistently challenged by stress. Stress can be induced by internal stressors and external stressors. External stressors, including radiation, heat, heavy metals, nutritional imbalances, infections, and psychological stress, can induce protein denaturation, leading to misfolded or aggregated proteins.

Successful Management of Contained Left Ventricular Free Wall Rupture Associated With Myocardial Infarction

open access: yesClinical Case Reports, Volume 14, Issue 2, February 2026.
ABSTRACT Left ventricular free wall rupture (LVFWR) is a deadly mechanical complication that, in approximately 2%–6% of patients, arises following acute myocardial infarction (MI). It could occur in different situations, ranging from several minutes to over one month following MI, usually among patients with risk factors.

The effect of cardioplegic supplementation with sildenafil on cardiac energetics in a piglet model of cardiopulmonary bypass and cardioplegic arrest with warm or cold cardioplegia

open access: yesFrontiers in Cardiovascular Medicine, 2023
Cardioplegic cardioprotection strategies used during paediatric open-heart surgery remain suboptimal. Sildenafil, a phosphodiesterase 5 (PDE-5) inhibitor, has been shown to be cardioprotective against ischemia/reperfusion injury in a variety of ...
