Octreotide attenuates impaired microcirculation in postischemic pancreatitis when administered before induction of ischemia.

13 Oct 2008 BACKGROUND: Ischemia-reperfusion injury of the pancreas causes impairment of microcirculation leading to pancreatitis. Postischemic pancreatitis is the most common reason for graft failure in pancreas transplantation. In animal models, octreotide ... Read more...

Development of the pulmonary arteries after the Norwood procedure: comparison between Blalock-Taussig shunt and right ventricular-pulmonary artery conduit.

29 Sep 2008 BACKGROUND: The Norwood-Sano procedure for hypoplastic left heart syndrome (HLHS) has been associated with improved postoperative hemodynamics and outcome. This study compared the effect of a Blalock-Taussig shunt with right ventricular-pulmonary ... Read more...

[Chronic thromboembolic pulmonary hypertension (CTEPH)]

21 Sep 2008 The spectrum of venous thromboembolism encompasses deep vein thrombosis, acute thrombus passing through the right heart, acute pulmonary embolism and chronic thromboembolic pulmonary hypertension (CTEPH). Pulmonary embolism may recur and have ... Read more...
