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 ...
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 ...

(Asociación Española de Enfermería en Cardiología (AEEC), 2023-10-26)
[Resumen] Introducción. El seguimiento clínico de pacientes trasplantados de corazón es complejo y requiere que la enfermera trasmita conocimientos según necesidades para fomentar el autocuidado y adherencia terapéutica. ...
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 ...
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 ...
Gene expression profiling for monitoring graft rejection in heart transplant recipients
(Elsevier, 2009-08-26)
[Abstract] Heart transplantation is a life-prolonging therapy for many patients with stage D heart failure and other forms of advanced heart disease. However, graft rejection and/or immunosuppression-related side effects ...
