This report describes changes in the treatment strategy for transposition of the great arteries (TGA) undergoing primary arterial switch operation early in the neonates in our institution. Decrease in pulmonary vascular resistance after birth results in deterioration of left ventricular (LV)
Leprosy may mask a variety of diseases. One such disease is systemic lupus erythematosus. The early differentiation between the two diseases is of utmost importance to institute appropriate treatment and reduce patient morbidity and mortality. Leprosy is a communicable, chronic granulomatous disease
The first written reports about the effect of high-altitude air on the human organism in Ancient China (the 30s BC) and in South America during the conquest (late XVI century) are discussed in this paper.
The aim of the study was to report the incidence and causes of preoperative deaths in isolated transposition of the great vessels and to describe the clinical findings in these neonates.
METHODS
In five French centers of pediatric cardiology, data of all the neonates with isolated transposition of
Hypoxia and hyperthermia are two connected consequences of the ongoing global change and constitute major threats for coastal marine organisms. In the present study, we used a proteomic approach to characterize the changes induced by hypoxia in the great scallop, Pecten maximus, subjected to three
As preoperative morbi-mortality remains significant, care of newborns with transposition of the great arteries is still challenging. In this review of the literature, we discuss the different treatments that could improve the patient's condition into the preoperative period. Instead of a
BACKGROUND
Tricuspid valve insufficiency secondary to structural anomalies of the valve itself or to an iatrogenic complication of the Rashkind procedure is very rarely associated with transposition of the the great arteries. This condition represents an interesting perioperative challenge. Rapid
Between 1975 and 1979, a group of 43 patients with d-transposition of the great arteries were diagnosed and underwent Rashkind balloon atrial septostomy at the time of initial catheterization. Thirty-six (88 percent) survived to the time of intraatrial baffle repair, and 31 (72 percent) are
Metabolic oncology is an exciting new field in cancer research, offering a new window to cancer's molecular plasticity and promise for the development of effective, cancer-selective therapies and novel biomarkers. It is based on the realization that cancer's unique metabolism (known since Warburg's
UNASSIGNED
Because a minority of patients with D-transposition of the great arteries are diagnosed in utero by ultrasound, most present after delivery with cyanosis. In the absence of apparent lung disease, cyanotic neonates suspected of having a cardiac lesion should be immediately transferred to
Pulmonary hypertension complicating idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis, also known as secondary pulmonary hypertension, represents a major source of morbidity and mortality in affected patients. While the study of primary pulmonary arterial hypertension has yielded several therapies, the same is not true
Calf blood flow was measured by venous occlusion plethysmography using a mercury in rubber strain gauge in infants with transposition of the great vessels. (TGV), and in comparable infants free from cardiopulmonary disease. Resting calf blood flow in the infants with TGV was 3.6 +/- 0.8 ml/100
OBJECTIVE
A previous anthropometric study has shown that neonates with transposition of the great arteries have a smaller head circumference and intracranial volume, which may be related to a lower oxygen content of blood delivered to the head and upper extremities. The aim of this study was to
