DOI: 10.1002/ejhf.2496
Abstract: AIMS Outcome predictors in myocarditis are not well defined; we aimed at identifying predictors of death, heart transplantation (HTx) and relapse before the introduction of immunosuppression. METHODS AND RESULTS From 1992 to 2012 we consecutively… read more here.

DOI: 10.1002/eji.202250097
Abstract: Early kinetics of lymphocyte subsets involved in tolerance and rejection following heart transplantation (HTx) are barely defined. Here, we aimed to delineate the early allo-immune response immediately after HTx. Therefore, blood samples from 23 heart-transplanted… read more here.

DOI: 10.1007/s00246-018-2042-1
Abstract: Right ventricular (RV) failure is a potentially fatal complication following heart transplantation (HTx). Inhaled nitric oxide (iNO) is a selective pulmonary vasodilator that is used to decrease pulmonary vascular resistance immediately post-HTx to reduce the… read more here.

DOI: 10.1016/j.healun.2021.01.822
Abstract: Purpose Venoarterial extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (VA ECMO) use as a bridge to heart transplant (HTx) has been associated with poor long term outcomes. We investigated our most recent experience with VA ECMO as a bridge… read more here.

DOI: 10.1016/j.humimm.2018.07.054
Abstract: The usefulness of virtual crossmatching (VXM) is limited by the accuracy of current assays for HLA antibodies (Ab). We describe two cases of a specific false-positive pattern of class II Ab in toddler-age heart transplant… read more here.
