Abstract Background Intestinal failure patients receiving home parenteral nutrition are at risk of catheter‐related bloodstream infection. Metastatic infections include infective endocarditis and vertebral osteomyelitis. We aimed to investigate the incidences of catheter‐related bloodstream infection, infective endocarditis, and vertebral osteomyelitis

During left-sided cardiac valve surgery in patients with mild or no tricuspid regurgitation (TR), the tricuspid valve exploration plays a vital role in the decision-making of concomitant tricuspid annuloplasty. Currently lack of an appropriate standard to define tricuspid annular dilatation is a challenge.

Due to the complex pathophysiology of aortic valve disease (AVD) and the resulting lack of effective pharmacotherapy, existing animal models are valuable research tools, but each has its own strengths and limitations. This review systematically surveys the major AVD models, compares their induction methods, pathological features, advantages and ...

Long-term results of surgery for mitral regurgitation due to mitral valve prolapse: a comparison of valve replacement and annuloplasty. [PDF]
Patients with mitral regurgitation (MR) due to mitral valve prolapse operated at the Second Department of Surgery, Okayama University Medical School, between 1976 and 1986 were divided into two groups.
