Circulating miR-181a-5p as a New Biomarker for Acute Cellular Rejection in Heart Transplantation
(Elsevier, 2020-06-07)
[Abstract] Background: Acute cellular rejection (ACR) is a major complication in heart transplantation (HTx). Endomyocardial biopsy is the reference method for early detection of ACR, but a new non-invasive approach is ...
Prevalence, Characteristics, and Prognostic Relevance of Donor-Transmitted Coronary Artery Disease in Heart Transplant Recipients
(Elsevier, 2023)
[Abstract] Background
The reported prevalence of donor-transmitted coronary artery disease (TCAD) in heart transplantation (HT) is variable, and its prognostic impact remains unclear.
Objectives
The goal of this study ...
Soluble HLA-G levels in heart transplant recipients: Dynamics and correlation with clinical outcomes
(Elsevier, 2023)
[Abstract] Purpose
To describe the evolution of the serum levels of soluble HLA-G (s-HLA-G) during the first 12 months after heart transplantation (HT) and to correlate it with clinical outcomes.
Methods
Observational ...
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 ...
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 ...
