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.
Myocardial Protection During Elective Coronary Artery Bypass Grafting Using High-Dose Insulin Therapy
The aim of this study was to investigate whether high-dose insulin therapy has a myocardial protective effect by enhancing early metabolic recovery of the arrested heart during revascularization.
Improvement of Outcomes after Coronary Artery Bypass II: A Randomized Trial Comparing Intraoperative High Versus Customized Mean Arterial Pressure
The objective of this randomized trial was to compare the efficacy of two strategies of hemodynamic management during cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB) on morbidity, mortality, cognitive complications and deterioration in functional status.
Feasibility Study of a Temporary Percutaneous Left Ventricular Assist Device in Cardiac Surgery
The aim of this study is to evaluate a percutaneous left ventricular assist device (Tandem Heart pVAD; Cardiac Assist, Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania) in the postcardiotomy setting.
Effect of Platelet-Rich Plasma on the Early Bone Formation Around Ca-P-Coated and Non-Coated Oral Implants in Cortical Bone
The purpose of the present study was to investigate the effect of local application of platelet-rich plasma (PRP) on the early healing of cortical bone around Ti implants with two different surface configurations.
Adrenomedullin Blood Concentrations in Infants Subjected to Cardiopulmonary Bypass: Correlation with Monitoring Parameters and Prediction of Poor Neurological Outcome
We evaluated whether cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB) affects cerebrovascular resistance and plasma concentrations of adrenomedullin (AM), a vasoactive peptide regulating cerebral blood flow.
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.
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.
