Processes that activate the immune system during lung transplantation can lead to primary graft dysfunction (PGD) or allograft rejection.We analyzed cytokine expression profiles after reperfusion and outcomes in a cohort of patients (n = 59) who underwent off-pump 26), with cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB; n 18), extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO; 15). Peripheral blood was collected from at baseline 6 72 h reperfusion. To adjust for clinical differences between groups, we utilized linear...
Achieving adequate pain control after lung transplantation is an essential milestone in a patient's recovery. We compared postoperative opioid use, clinical outcomes, and respiratory function transplant recipients treated with intercostal nerve cryoablation (INC) to those receiving standard management. reviewed all adult transplants performed at our center between January 2016 December 2022. excluded cases through median sternotomy patients prior thoracotomies, multiorgan transplants, redo...

However, there is lack recent literature on the characteristics outcomes these infections. The purpose this study was describe patients with invasive infections due groupable streptococci, identify risk factors for evaluate response antimicrobial therapy. Methods We reviewed medical...
