Article Synopsis
- This review discusses how neighborhoods impact cardiovascular health by examining various factors like race, healthcare access, and social conditions.
- Recent studies utilize different data sources, including Census data and health records, to analyze these neighborhood influences on heart health outcomes.
- Community-based interventions show promise in reducing health disparities related to neighborhood conditions but face challenges in implementation; collaborating with local stakeholders is crucial for effective action.
Introduction: We examined the impact and time course of de novo human leukocyte antigen (HLA) allosensitization following left ventricular assist device (LVAD) implantation.
Methods And Results: Forty patients had a calculated panel reactive antibody (cPRA) prior to LVAD surgery between January 2014 and December 2018. Of these patients, we retrospectively studied 33 patients who had pre-LVAD cPRA <10%.
