The Falling Incidence of Hematologic Cancer After Heart Transplantation
(Wiley, 2014-10-01)
[Abstract] Background. A number of changes in the management of heart transplantation (HT) patients have each tended to reduce the risk of post-HT hematologic cancer, but little information is available concerning the ...
Mechanical circulatory support in severe primary graft dysfunction: peripheral cannulation but not earlier implantation improves survival in heart transplantation
(Elsevier, 2023-03-15)
[Abstract] Background. Primary graft dysfunction (PGD) still affects 2-28% of heart transplants (HT). Severe PGD requires mechanical circulatory support (MCS) and is the main cause of death early after HT. Earlier initiation ...
Temporal trends in the use and outcomes of temporary mechanical circulatory support as a bridge to cardiac transplantation in Spain. Final report of the ASIS-TC study
(Elsevier, 2022-11-09)
[Abstract] Background: We aimed to describe recent trends in the use and outcomes of temporary mechanical circulatory support (MCS) as a bridge to heart transplantation (HTx) in Spain.
Methods: Retrospective case-by-case ...
Utility of the IMPACT score for predicting heart transplant mortality: analysis on a contemporary cohort of the Spanish Heart Transplant Registry
(Wiley, 2022-07-13)
[Abstract] Introduction and objectives: The Index for Mortality Prediction After Cardiac Transplantation (IMPACT) score was derived and validated as a predictor of mortality after heart transplantation (HT). The primary ...
Malignancy following heart transplantation: differences in incidence and prognosis between sexes – a multicenter cohort study
(Wiley Online Library, 2021-03-12)
[Abstract]
Male patients are at increased risk for developing malignancy postheart transplantation (HT); however, real incidence and prognosis in both genders remain unknown. The aim of this study was to assess differences ...
Heart transplantation using allografts from older donors: multicenter study results
(Elsevier, 2014-11-14)
[Abstract] Background. The lengthy waiting time for heart transplantation is associated with high mortality. To increase the number of donors, new strategies have emerged, including the use of hearts from donors ≥50 years ...
Usefulness of the INTERMACS scale for predicting outcomes after urgent heart transplantation
(Elsevier, 2011)
[Abstract] Introduction and objectives. Our aim was to assess the prognostic value of the INTERMACS (Interagency Registry for Mechanically Assisted Circulatory Support) scale in patients undergoing urgent heart transplantation ...
Chronic anemia in heart transplant patients: prevalence, risk factors, and prognostic significance
(Elsevier, 2007)
[Abstract] Introduction and objectives. Data on chronic anemia following heart transplantation (HT) are scarce and contradictory. Our aims were to determine the prevalence of chronic anemia after HT, to identify predisposing ...
Polymorphisms in genes related to the complement system and antibody-mediated cardiac allograft rejection
(Elsevier, 2017-07-15)
[Abstract] Background. Heart transplantation (HT) is a life-saving treatment for patients with end-stage heart failure. One of the main problems after HT is the humoral response termed antibody-mediated rejection (AMR). ...
