Among malignant tumors, non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) remains a major threat to human life and health. Studies have illustrated that minichromosome maintenance protein 4 (MCM4) has complex interactions wi...

The optimal surgical approach for right ventricular outflow tract obstruction in Tetralogy of Fallot aims to preserve the native pulmonary valve annulus, as this is associated with better long-term outcomes. P...

Eosinophilic endocarditis or myocarditis is a major complication of hypereosinophilic syndrome, characterized by eosinophilic infiltration leading to endocardial or myocardial necrosis, thrombosis formation, a...

The aim of this study is to determine whether the presence of a negative T wave in lead V1 within 15 h after birth is associated with delayed closure of patent ductus arteriosus (PDA) in preterm neonates withi...

Baseline glucose levels have been implicated in the prognosis of critically ill patients. However, the prognostic value of glucose in patients with cardiogenic shock (CS) has not been systematically evaluated....

CONCLUSIONS: This retrospective study demonstrates the safety and efficacy of the tissue-engineered Periborn bovine pericardial scaffold for the surgical repair of various cardiovascular diseases. The excellent durability and hemodynamic performance of Periborn make our novel anti-calcification protocol attractive and may require long-term follow-up to confirm durability and further research.

Pulmonary valve replacement (PVR) is the most common valve replacement procedure for pulmonary valve dysfunction in congenital heart diseases (CHD). Despite the long-term need for anticoagulation and potential...

Ascorbic acid is an essential cofactor of catecholamine synthesis that increases capillary bed density and improves microcirculation perfusion. We hypothesized early ascorbic acid administration in cardiothora...

CONCLUSIONS: Bovine pericardium may be used in prepectoral breast reconstruction with a good outcome. Careful patient selection is crucial, and ICG-A is helpful in reducing the risk of post-surgical complications.
