This study was designed to investigate whether glutaraldehyde-polymerized human placenta hemoglobin (PolyPHb), a hemoglobin-based oxygen carrier (HBOC), can protect heart against cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB)-induced ischemia/reperfusion (I/R) injury or not and to elucidate the underlying mechanism.
The aim of the present controlled clinical study was to compare the clinical response of human cultured periosteum (HCP) sheets in combination with platelet-rich plasma (PRP) and porous hydroxyapatite (HA) granules to a mixture of PRP and HA in the treatment of human infrabony periodontal defects.
Despite accounting for differences in risk factors and intra-operative practices, Black patients had a 50% increased odds for developing moderate-severe post-operative AKI compared to White patients. Additional evaluations are warranted to identify potential targets to address racial disparities in AKI outcomes.
