Surgical complications in human orthotopic liver transplantation. [PDF]

, 1987
Between March 1, 1980 and December 31, 1984, 393 orthotopic liver transplantations (OLT) were performed in 313 consecutive recipients. Technical complications were responsible for a substantial morbidity (41/393 allograft loss--10.4%) and mortality (26 ...

Equine botulism

Equine Veterinary Journal, EarlyView.
Abstract Botulism is a severe and often fatal disease in equine patients worldwide. Clostridium botulinum is a ubiquitous soil organism which produces a potent neurotoxin resulting in neuromuscular blockade and flaccid paralysis in affected animals. Definitive diagnosis is often impractical or impossible, leading to diagnosis and treatment based on ...

Leadless Versus Transvenous Dual‐Chamber Pacemakers: Real‐World Evidence From AVEIR DR Coverage With Evidence Development Study

Journal of Cardiovascular Electrophysiology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background AVEIR DR, an industry‐first dual‐chamber leadless pacemaker (LP), provides continuous atrioventricular synchrony through implant‐to‐implant (i2i) communication between atrial and ventricular LP devices. It is important to evaluate the early real‐world comparative safety of AVEIR DR LP.

Intravascular Lithotripsy to Facilitate Extraction of Very Old Cardiac Implantable Electronic Devices Leads

Journal of Cardiovascular Electrophysiology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background One of the challenges encountered when extracting transvenous leads with long dwell times is the presence of dense calcifications encasing the leads. This is the most likely reason for failure to advance a laser extraction sheath.

Catheter ablation versus medical therapy in atrial fibrillation: an umbrella review of meta-analyses of randomized clinical trials

BMC Cardiovascular Disorders
This umbrella review synthesizes data from 17 meta-analyses investigating the comparative outcomes of catheter ablation (CA) and medical treatment (MT) for atrial fibrillation (AF). Outcomes assessed were mortality, risk of hospitalization, AF recurrence,

The Swedish CArdioPulmonary bioImage Study re‐examination: Rationale, design, methods, and management of incidental findings

Journal of Internal Medicine, EarlyView.
Abstract Objectives To describe the rationale, design and data collection procedures of the Swedish CArdioPulmonary bioImage Study (SCAPIS) re‐examination, which, in its further scope, aims to quantify and explain the development of atherosclerosis, pathological cardiovascular ageing, longitudinal decline in lung function and the malignant ...

Salivary and Serum Cytokine Concentrations in Kidney Transplantation: A Prospective Study

Oral Diseases, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Kidney transplant recipients (KTRs) experience immune modulation, which may lead to graft rejection and other adverse outcomes. Although serum cytokines are well‐established systemic immune markers, the role of salivary biomarkers has never been reported in the literature.

Efficacy and Safety of the Sync‐AV II Temporary Cardiac Pacing Catheter (EASY II Trial)

Pacing and Clinical Electrophysiology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Cardiac pacing is crucial for patients with hemodynamically unstable bradyarrhythmias. For most indications, transvenous pacemakers are used to pace the right ventricle, causing atrioventricular dyssynchrony, which may lead to significant hemodynamic compromise.
