Humberto Torres,Lorenzo Merello,S.A. Ramos,M.A. Aninat,L.E. Becerra,A.D. Mora,P.T. Valenzuela,M.J. Godoy,A.A. Prieto +8 more
TL;DR: Time elapsed since HT is the most important risk factor for the development of CAV and its prevalence almost doubled when measured with IVUS in contrast with angiography, and IVUS was thus shown to be a more sensitive diagnostic tool compared with coronaryAngiography.
Journal ArticleDOI
Microvascular Coronary Flow Comparison in Acute Myocardial Infarction Angioplasty treated with a mesh covered stent (MGUARD Stent) versus Bare Metal Stent: MICAMI–MGUARD
Dante Lindefjeld,Eduardo Guarda,Manuel Méndez,Alejandro Martínez,Osvaldo Pérez,Alejandro Fajuri,Marchant E,Mauricio Aninat,Humberto Torres,Gastón Dussaillant +9 more
TL;DR: In this exploratory study, MGS significantly improved microvascular reperfusion criteria compared with a BMS in primary PCI, however its safety and impact on clinical outcomes should be verified in larger randomized clinical trials.
Journal ArticleDOI
Enfermedad coronaria aneurismática severa en un adolescente con angina de esfuerzo secundaria a enfermedad de Kawasaki no diagnosticada previamente
Rienzi Díaz,Ernesto Aranguiz,Oneglio Pedemonte,Danilo Silva,Salvador Villablanca,Humberto Torres,Gustavo Ríos +6 more
TL;DR: A 16 year old male with a history of angina on exertion and a treadmill exercise test was positive for ischemia in concordance with a Thallium-201scintigraphy showing a septal and infero-posterior reversible myocardial perfusion defect.

Journal Article
[Cardiac transplantation: economizing cyclosporin A by including ketoconazole in the immunosuppressive schedule].
Becerra E,Ernesto Aranguiz,Oneglio Pedemonte,De Prada Mt,Lorenzo Merello,Orfali C,Mauricio Aninat,Humberto Torres,González R,Chadid P +9 more
TL;DR: A 74 to 82% reduction in cyclosporin requirements was obtained in a cardiac transplant patient by adding ketoconazole, and this drug association may help extend cardiac transplantation programs in Chile.
