Extracorporeal Circulation Activates Endothelial Nitric Oxide Synthase in Erythrocytes
We hypothesized that eNOS in circulating red blood cells might be activated during extracorporeal circulation and thus contribute to hypotension through vasodilation upon NO release.
Periodontal Tissue Regeneration with Adipose-Derived Stem Cells
In this study, we sought to determine whether adipose-derived stem cells (ASCs) can promote periodontal tissue regeneration as well. ASCs were isolated from a Wistar rat, passaged twice, mixed with platelet-rich plasma (PRP) obtained from inbred rats, and implanted into the periodontal tissue defect that had been generated in the test rats.
Influence of Intraoperative Conversion From Off-Pump to On-Pump Coronary Artery Bypass Grafting on Costs and Quality of Life: A Cost-Effectiveness Analysis
The objective of this study was to determine whether intraoperative conversion affects costs and quality of life.
Topical Use of Platelet-Rich Plasma to Influence Bone Volume in Maxillary Augmentation: A Prospective Randomized Trial
The aim of this study was to verify the hypothesis that platelet-rich plasma (PRP) has an influence on bone density in the maxilla after sinus floor elevation in combination with autologous cancellous bone from the iliac crest.
Human Osteoblasts Attachment to Guided Tissue Regeneration Membranes Which Were Coated Either With Platelet-Rich Plasma or Platelet-Poor Plasma
To determine whether human alveolar bone osteoblasts (HABO) attachment to commercial available guided tissue regeneration (GTR) membranes can be enhanced by coating with freshly prepared human platelet-rich plasma (PRP) and platelet poor plasma (PPP).

Increased Mortality, Postoperative Morbidity, and Cost After Red Blood Cell Transfusion in Patients Having Cardiac Surgery
To inform decisions about transfusion, we aimed to quantify associations of transfusion with clinical outcomes and cost in patients having cardiac surgery.
Growth Factor Delivery Methods in the Management of Sports Injuries:The State of Play
In recent years there have been rapid developments in the use of growth factors for accelerated healing of injury.
Attachment of Periodontal Fibroblasts to Barrier Membranes Coated With Platelet-Rich Plasma
This study evaluated the attachment of human periodontal ligament (HPDL) and human gingival (HG) fibroblasts onto commercially available barrier membranes coated with platelet-rich plasma (PRP).
Tranexamic Acid Attenuates Inflammatory Response in Cardiopulmonary Bypass Surgery Through Blockade of Fibrinolysis: A Case Control Study Followed by a Randomized Double-Blind Controlled Trial
Tranexamic acid (TA) reduces fibrinolysis and blood loss after cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB). However, its effects on IR and vasoplegic shock (VS) are not well known and this was the main objective of this study.
Autologous Platelet Gel and Platelet-Poor Plasma Reduce Pain With Total Shoulder Arthroplasty
This study examines the effects of APG and PPP treatment on TSA patients postoperatively.
