Abstract Aims SPARCL1 was recently identified as a biomarker of right ventricular (RV) maladaptation in patients with pulmonary hypertension (PH), and N‐terminal pro‐brain natriuretic protein (NT‐proBNP) is an established biomarker of RV failure in PH. The present study investigated whether NT‐proBNP and SPARCL1 concentrations are associated with load ...

We report the case of a patient who needed mitral valve replacement but was at a high risk of myocardial injury with the conventional technique (cardioplegic arrest on cardiopulmonary bypass). Valve replacement was carried out on a beating heart on cardiopulmonary bypass by perfusing the heart continuously with oxygenated noncardioplegic normothermic ...
