Early Hemofiltration Improves Survival in Post-Cardiotomy Patients With Acute Renal Failure
Early and aggressive use of CVVH is associated with better than expected survival in severe ARF after cardiac operations.
Cerebral Activation of Mitogen-Activated Protein Kinases After Circulatory Arrest and Low Flow Cardiopulmonary Bypass
Our results indicate that phosphorylated extracellular regulated kinase 1/2 may play a prominent role in early cerebral ischemia-reperfusion injury and endothelial dysfunction.

How Much Heparin Do We Really Need to Go on Pump? A Rethink of Current Practices
Patients receiving lower dose of heparin had lower postoperative blood loss.
Near-Infrared Spectroscopy for Monitoring Cerebral Ischemia During Selective Cerebral Perfusion
A sustained drop in rSO2 during aortic surgery is closely related to the occurrence of neurological events following surgery.
Descending Thoracic Aortic Rupture: Role of Endovascular Stent-Grafting
The early results of endovascular stent-grafting for the treatment of high-risk patients with descending thoracic aortic rupture are promising.
Aortic Atheroma Burden and Cognitive Dysfunction After Coronary Artery Bypass Graft Surgery
Although the etiology of NCD is likely multifactorial, our results suggest that aortic atherosclerosis may not be the primary factor in the pathogenesis of post-CABG cognitive changes.
The Impact of Aortic Manipulation on Neurologic Outcomes After Coronary Artery Bypass Surgery: A Risk-Adjusted Study
Aortic manipulation during CABG is a contributing mechanism for postoperative stroke. The incidence of postoperative stroke increases with increased levels of aortic manipulation.
Does Clopidogrel Increase Blood Loss Following Coronary Artery Bypass Surgery
Clopidogrel within 4 days of coronary bypass surgery is associated with increased blood losses and reoperation for bleeding and, according to multivariable models, is an independent risk factor for increased transfusion requirements and prolonged ICU and hospital length of stay.
Treatment of Periapical Inflammatory Lesion With the Combination of Platelet-Rich Plasma and Tricalcium Phosphate: A Case Report
In this case report, use of platelet gel in conjunction with TCP in the treatment of periapical inflammatory lesion and the results of 12 months has been reported.
Extracorporeal Membrane Oxygenation is Superior to Right Ventricular Assist Device for Acute Right Ventricular Failure After Heart Transplantation
In view of these results, extracorporeal membrane oxygenation seems to be the better option as mechanical circulatory support for right ventricular failure in heart transplantation.
