Post-Discharge Cardiac Care in the Era of Coronavirus 2019: How Should We Prepare?

Hydrogen as Additive of HTK Solution Fortifies Myocardial Preservation in Grafts with Prolonged Cold Ischemia

Hydrogen as additive of HTK solution fortifies HTK's preservation efficacy for cardiac grafts subjected to prolonged cold ischemia by inhibiting cold ischemia-induced up-regulation of oxidative stress, inflammation mediators, and apoptosis.

Risk Factors in the Origin of Congenital Left-Ventricular Outflow-Tract Obstruction Defects of the Heart: A Population-Based Case-Control Study

The aim of our project was to study possible etiological factors in the origin of congenital heart defects (CHDs) because in the majority of patients the underlying causes are unclear.

Do Surface-Modifying Additive Circuits Reduce the Rate of Cerebral Microemboli During Cardiopulmonary Bypass?

The objective of this study was to determine if surface-modifying additive (SMA) cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB) circuits are associated with a lower rate of cerebral microemboli during CPB compared with standard circuits.
