Article Synopsis
- The study evaluated the safety and effectiveness of low dose aspirin combined with warfarin in patients with atrial fibrillation post-mechanical heart valve replacement, involving 1,016 patients.
- The combined therapy resulted in a lower incidence of thromboembolic events compared to warfarin alone (2.16% vs. 4.35%).
- There were no significant differences in major bleeding risks or mortality rates between the two treatment groups.
Background: This study is designed to investigate the effect of preoperational mechanical ventilation on the short-term postoperative outcomes following corrective surgery for severe tetralogy of Fallot (TOF).
Methods: Ninety-two patients (58 males, mean age 20.5±8.
Objectives: To investigate the feasibility and safety of totally thoracoscopic repair of ventricular septal defects (VSDs) in young children.
Methods: VSD repair was conducted in 36 children (21 boys, mean age 2.5 ± 1.
Background: To investigate blood lactate levels during and after peripherally established cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB).
Methods: In 86 patients (41 males, mean age 13.8 ± 7.
Background: This study was designed to investigate the effect of captopril on systolic pulmonary arterial pressure (PAP) and circulating endothelin-1 (ET-1) following surgical repair of tetralogy of Fallot (TOF).
Methods And Results: Seventy-six consecutive patients were divided into captopril and control groups following successful repair of TOF. The captopril group was treated with oral captopril (0.
Objective: To observe the treatment and it's mechanisms of rHu-EPO on acute myocardial infarction of SD rats in vitro and vivo.
Methods: Cardiomyocytes were isolated from neonatal Sprague-Dawley rats. Hypoxia condition and oxidative stress were used to induce apoptosis.
