Cardiovascular disease (CVD) and cancer are leading causes of death globally, particularly among the rapidly growing population older adults (OAs). CVD is a cause mortality survivors, often accelerated by treatments associated with short- or long-term cardiotoxicity. Moreover, there dynamic relationship CVD, cancer, aging, characterized shared risk factors biological hallmarks, that plays an important role in caring for OAs, optimizing treatment approaches, developing preventive strategies....
Infection with the novel severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 has been associated a hypercoagulable state. Emerging data from China and Europe have consistently shown an increased incidence of venous thromboembolism (VTE). We aimed to identify VTE early predictors at our high-volume tertiary care center.We performed retrospective cohort study 147 patients who had admitted Temple University Hospital disease 2019 (COVID-19) April 1, 2020 27, 2020. first identified (pulmonary...
The ongoing armed conflict in Sudan that started April 2023 resulted over 8 millions internally displaced persons (IDPs), addition to the already previously 3.8 millions. Post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) is one of most documented mental health problems among IDPs. Additionally, factors such as personal safety concerns and financial losses have been identified potential stressors contributing development PTSD. Our study aimed understand relationship between displacement-related trauma...
Abstract OBJECTIVES Racial and ethnic disparities remain an ongoing challenge in healthcare. Such inequities have been reported heart transplantation (HTx), however, there is limited data within the modern era. Additionally, scarce information on outcomes besides death, such as graft rejection. Therefore, our investigation aims to add further contemporary racial post-transplant outcomes. METHODS Adult isolated HTx recipients who were transplanted between 1/2000–9/2023 analyzed using UNOS...
Following injury, leukocytes are released from hematopoietic organs and migrate to the site of damage regulate tissue inflammation repair; however, lacking β2-adrenergic receptor (β2-AR) expression have marked impairments in these processes. Beta blockade is a common strategy for treatment many cardiovascular etiologies; therefore, objective our study was assess impact prior beta blocker on baseline leukocyte parameters their responsiveness acute injury. In temporal β-adrenergic...
Strongyloides is a parasite that common in tropical regions. Infection the immunocompetent host usually associated with mild gastrointestinal symptoms. However, immunosuppressed individuals it has been known to cause "hyperinfection syndrome" fatal complications. Reactivation of latent infection and rarely transmission from donor organs transplanted patients have suggested as possible causes. Our case highlights importance suspecting transplant recipients atypical presentations demonstrates...
HLA donor-specific antibodies (DSAs) pre and post transplant increase the risk of antibody-mediated rejection (AMR) lead to poor graft survival. Increasing data exist support involvement non-HLA in triggering an immunological response. The development specific for AT1R is associated with clinical outcomes orthotopic heart recipients. This case presents investigation a 56-year-old female recipient diagnosed AMR absence DSAs.
Abstract Background Some heart transplant (HTx) centers have expanded their donor eligibility criteria in response to the organ shortage; one area of active interest involves utilizing hearts with ventricular dysfunction. Our study seeks identify if a relationship exists between left ejection fraction (LVEF) and ischemic time or age on HTx outcomes. Methods We performed retrospective analysis adult patients who had 1996 2021 ( n = 46,936). Donor LVEF (dLVEF) values were categorized into...
