The challenge to detect heart transplant rejection and transplant vasculopathy non-invasively – a pilot study

Journal of Cardiothoracic Surgery, 2009
Background Cardiac allograft rejection and vasculopathy are the main factors limiting long-term survival after heart transplantation. In this pilot study we investigated whether non-invasive methods are beneficial to detect cardiac allograft rejection ...

Arrhythmias associated with immune checkpoint inhibitor therapy—A clinical perspective

British Journal of Pharmacology, EarlyView.
Immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICIs) have transformed cancer therapy but are associated with a growing spectrum of cardiovascular immune‐related adverse events. Among these, arrhythmias represent a rare yet potentially life‐threatening complication. ICI‐induced arrhythmias encompass a wide clinical spectrum, including atrial arrhythmias, conduction ...

Diagnostic yield, safety and therapeutic consequences of myocardial biopsy in clinically suspected fulminant myocarditis unweanable from mechanical circulatory support

Annals of Intensive Care, 2023
Background Fulminant myocarditis is a rare and severe disease whose definite and etiological diagnoses rely on pathological examination. Albeit, myocardial biopsy can be associated with significant morbidity and mortality, its therapeutic consequences ...

Light Chain Monoclonal Gammopathy of Undetermined Significance: Diagnosis, Biology, and Clinical Management

European Journal of Haematology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Light chain monoclonal gammopathy of undetermined significance (LC‐MGUS) is defined by an abnormal serum free light chain ratio and elevated involved light chain in the absence of a detectable immunoglobulin heavy chain on immunofixation and of end‐organ damage attributable to a plasma cell disorder.
