Ventricular remodelling and revascularization in severe left ventricular dysfunction [PDF]

European Journal of Cardio-Thoracic Surgery, 1998
To evaluate the role of surgical revascularization in the presence of severe, global impairment of left ventricular function without discrete aneurysm formation or mitral regurgitation. The high mortality and morbidity associated with this group, together with the limited benefits tend to prompt referral for cardiac transplantation.Fifty-three patients

Modeling Progressive Brain Volume Losses in Chronic Moderate Severe Traumatic Brain Injury: Extensive, but Attenuating

Annals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective Progressive brain atrophy has now been widely observed in the chronic stages of moderate–severe traumatic brain injury (msTBI), but there is only coarse information regarding its prevalence and magnitude, and whether rate of atrophy accelerates or attenuates across time. We examined these questions in a Canadian inception cohort from

Anticoagulation Treatment Response Among Phenotypic ESUS Clusters: Evidence From CASPR

Annals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective To evaluate treatment effect heterogeneity across phenotypic clusters of patients with cryptogenic embolic stroke using causal inference methods. Methods From a retrospective, multicenter cohort of patients with cryptogenic embolic stroke, we estimated the treatment effect of anticoagulation versus antiplatelet therapy in patients ...
