Hemodynamic effects of stent-graft introducer sheath during thoracic endovascular aortic repair [PDF]
Thoracic endovascular aortic repair (TEVAR) has become the standard treatment of a variety of aortic pathologies. The objective of this study is to evaluate the hemodynamic effects of stent-graft introducer sheath during TEVAR. Three idealized representative diseased aortas of aortic aneurysm, coarctation of the aorta, and aortic dissection were ...

Graft-versus-host disease [PDF]
Approximately 25,000 allogeneic hematopoietic cell transplants are performed worldwide each year for a variety of malignant and non-malignant conditions. Graft-versus-host disease represents one of the most frequent complications and is a major source of long-term morbidity and mortality.

Improved survival after acute graft- [PDF]
A cute graft- versus -host disease remains a major threat to a successful outcome after allogeneic hematopoietic cell transplantation. While improvements in treatment and supportive care have occurred, it is unknown whether these advances have resulted ...

Vitiligo-like manifestations of graft-versus-host disease in a pediatric population [PDF]
Vitiligo-like changes are an uncommon cutaneous manifestation of graft-versus-host disease (GVHD). We report three cases and review the literature of pediatric patients with vitiligo-like changes associated with GVHD.

Stem Cell Transplantation As A Dynamical System: Are Clinical Outcomes Deterministic? [PDF]
Outcomes in stem cell transplantation (SCT) are modeled using probability theory. However the clinical course following SCT appears to demonstrate many characteristics of dynamical systems, especially when outcomes are considered in the context of immune reconstitution.

Graft versus host disease [PDF]
Graft versus host disease (GVHD) occurs in 50% to 70% of patients receiving bone marrow transplants. It can also develop in immunosuppressed patients with malignancies who receive nonirradiated blood transfusions. Most work indicates that the primary mechanism of GVHD is cell-mediated. It is likely that humoral factors are involved as well.

Chronic graft-versus-host disease: clinical presentation of multiple lesions of lichenoid and atrophic pattern [PDF]
Graft-versus-host disease is observed mainly in recipients of hematopoietic cell transplantation and is expressed by cutaneous or systemic signals and symptoms. Graft-versus-host disease is clinically classified as acute or chronic.
