A Retrospective Analysis of Self-Limiting Fever following Percutaneous Patent Foramen Ovale and Atrial Septal Defect Closure

Cardiology Research and Practice
While percutaneous closure of patent foramen ovale (PFO) and atrial septal defect (ASD) are generally well-tolerated procedures, the development of postprocedure fever has been observed at a higher frequency than reported in the initial device trials. We

Bioabsorbable bypass grafts biofunctionalised with RGD have enhanced biophysical properties and endothelialisation tested in vivo

Frontiers in Pharmacology, 2016
Small diameter arterial bypass grafts are considered as unmet clinical need since the current grafts have poor patency of 25% within 5 years. We have developed a 3D scaffold manufactured from natural and synthetic biodegradable polymers, poly(3 ...

Tetrahydrobiopterin and Cardiovascular Disease [PDF]

Arteriosclerosis, Thrombosis, and Vascular Biology, 2006
Tetrahydrobiopterin (BH 4 ) is an essential cofactor for the aromatic amino acid hydroxylases, which are essential in the formation of neurotransmitters, and for nitric oxide synthase. It is presently used clinically to treat some forms of phenylketonuria (PKU) that can be ameliorated by BH 4

Diastolic Pulmonary Gradient as a Predictor of Right Ventricular Failure After Left Ventricular Assist Device Implantation

Journal of the American Heart Association: Cardiovascular and Cerebrovascular Disease, 2019
Background Diastolic pulmonary gradient (DPG) was proposed as a better marker of pulmonary vascular remodeling compared with pulmonary vascular resistance (PVR) and transpulmonary gradient (TPG). The prognostic significance of DPG in patients requiring a
