Sign Up to like & getrecommendations! Published in 2021 at "Journal of Heart and Lung Transplantation"
DOI: 10.1016/j.healun.2021.01.826
Abstract: Purpose Low functional exercise capacity (FEC) is directly associated with reduced quality of life and poor prognosis after orthotopic heart transplant (OHT). Due to inconsistencies in the literature, the purpose of this study is to… read more here.

DOI: 10.1016/j.hrcr.2017.10.002
Abstract: Introduction Atrial fibrillation (AF) is rare in patients after orthotopic heart transplantation (OHT) and most commonly has been described in the setting of acute rejection or transplant vasculopathy. The principal reason postulated for the rarity… read more here.

DOI: 10.1016/j.hrcr.2018.08.004
Abstract: Atrial tachycardia (AT) after orthotopic heart transplantation (OHT) can be complex, occurring in the recipient as well as in the donor atria. Catheter ablation of these multiple ATs is challenging because of the complexity of… read more here.

DOI: 10.1016/s0735-1097(18)30908-2
Abstract: Conduction abnormalities following orthotopic heart transplantation (OHT) are unique in that there is loss of autonomic nervous system modulation, occurring in the background of immunosuppressive therapy, in addition to the risk of allograft rejection and… read more here.

DOI: 10.1093/ajcp/aqaf092
Abstract: OBJECTIVE The number of orthotopic heart transplants (OHTs) performed each year continues to increase, as does the post-transplant survival rate. Little is known, however, about the morphologic changes in the liver after the patient has… read more here.

DOI: 10.1111/ajt.17172
Abstract: Novel risk stratification and non‐invasive surveillance methods are needed in orthotopic heart transplant (OHT) to reduce morbidity and mortality post‐transplant. Clonal hematopoiesis (CH) refers to the acquisition of specific gene mutations in hematopoietic stem cells… read more here.

Permanent pacing in a very long‐term follow‐up after orthotopic heart transplantation: A matter of when or why?
Sign Up to like & getrecommendations! Published in 2022 at "Annals of Noninvasive Electrocardiology"
DOI: 10.1111/anec.12979
Abstract: Orthotopic heart transplantation (OHT) is associated with a high incidence of conduction disturbances (CD) leading to permanent pacemaker (PPM) implantation. However, the improved posttransplant survival raises the question about the pacemaker dependence (PD) in a… read more here.

DOI: 10.1111/ctr.14523
Abstract: BACKGROUND Intravascular Ultrasound (IVUS) and Optical Coherence Tomography (OCT) improve sensitivity of cardiac allograft vasculopathy (CAV) detection compared to invasive coronary angiography (ICA), but their ability to predict clinical events is unknown. We determined whether… read more here.

DOI: 10.1111/ctr.70248
Abstract: Invasive fungal infections (IFI) post‐orthotopic heart transplant (OHT) have not been well studied due to limited information in large databases. The goal of the study is to describe the incidence and risk factors for IFI. read more here.
