Looking into the Future: Optical Coherence Tomography for the Assessment of Cardiac Allograft Vasculopathy
Sign Up to like & getrecommendations! Published in 2019 at "Journal of Cardiac Failure"
DOI: 10.1016/j.cardfail.2019.07.330
Abstract: Introduction Current guidelines recommend coronary angiography with intravascular ultrasound (IVUS) as a screening and surveillance tool for the assessment of cardiac allograft vasculopathy (CAV). The role of optical coherence tomography (OCT) has not been thoroughly… read more here.

DOI: 10.1016/j.jacc.2018.08.1560
Abstract: PCI for cardiac allograft vasculopathy (CAV) is associated with high revascularization rates but acceptable stent and lesion patency. Whether a strategy of PCI normalizes survival is not known. Pts who underwent PCI with 2nd gen… read more here.

DOI: 10.1016/j.trim.2020.101340
Abstract: INTRODUCTION Recent studies suggested potential positive correlations between HLA-specific antibodies and development of cardiac allograft vasculopathy (CAV). METHODS This prospective two-center study investigated early progression of CAV by coronary optical coherence tomography in 1 month… read more here.

DOI: 10.1093/ehjci/ehaa946.1107
Abstract: B-cells have been strongly implicated in cardiac allograft rejection (CAR). Recently, however, the CTOT-11 trial showed that depleting mature CD20+ B-cells did not reduce rates of rejection in cardiac allograft recipients and unexpectedly increased the… read more here.

DOI: 10.1093/ehjci/ehaa946.2697
Abstract: Cardiac allograft vasculopathy (CAV) is a major threat to long-term survival after heart transplantation (HT). The frequency of CAV is estimated to be 8% at 1 year after HT, 30% at the 5-year follow-up, and… read more here.
