This cohort study investigates whether lipoprotein(a) values are associated with lower-limb amputation or revascularization.
We defined postoperative myocardial injury using cut points for creatine kinase myocardial b fraction specific for valvular or nonvalvular surgery, given intrinsic differences in the degree of surgical trauma induced by the procedures.36 For nonvalvular surgery, postoperative myocardial injury was defined ...

Previous research has suggested that blast-like trauma has great potential to create cavitation, or bubbles, and cause damage to brain cells, with some studies showing their presence inside realistic head models. Adnan wants to track the entire process of bubble formation, evolution and collapse to...
Specific to the cardiac surgery patient, surgical trauma inflicts direct myocardial damage, but with different procedures the extent of direct tissue damage varies, e.g., isolated coronary artery revascularization vs. cardiotomy in a hypertrophic heart. The extent to which each of these factors ...
