Journal ArticleDOI
Ischemic mitral regurgitation : Revascularization alone versus revascularization and mitral valve repair
Yong-Hwan Kim,Lawrence S.C. Czer,Lawrence S.C. Czer,Harmik J. Soukiasian,Michele A. De Robertis,Kathy E. Magliato,Carlos Blanche,Sharo Raissi,James Mirocha,Robert J. Siegel,Robert M. Kass,Alfredo Trento,Alfredo Trento +12 more
TL;DR: In patients with IMR, combined mitral valve repair and revascularization resulted in less postoperative mitral regurgitation and similar 5-year survival when compared withRevascularization alone, and attempts to reduce pump time by using off-pump techniques may reduce early mortality in these high-risk patients.
Journal ArticleDOI
Human Cardiosphere-Derived Cells From Advanced Heart Failure Patients Exhibit Augmented Functional Potency in Myocardial Repair
Ke Cheng,Konstantinos Malliaras,Rachel Ruckdeschel Smith,Deliang Shen,Deliang Shen,Baiming Sun,Agnieszka Blusztajn,Yucai Xie,Ahmed Ibrahim,Mohammad Amin Aminzadeh,Weixin Liu,Tao-Sheng Li,Tao-Sheng Li,Michele A. De Robertis,Linda Marbán,Lawrence S.C. Czer,Alfredo Trento,Eduardo Marbán +17 more
TL;DR: CDCs from advanced HF patients exhibit augmented potency in ameliorating ventricular dysfunction post-MI, possibly through SDF-1–mediated mechanisms.
Journal ArticleDOI
Assessment of Aortic Stenosis by Three-Dimensional Echocardiography: An Accurate and Novel Approach
Sorel Goland,Alfredo Trento,Alfredo Trento,Kiyoshi Iida,Kiyoshi Iida,Lawrence S.C. Czer,Lawrence S.C. Czer,Michele A. De Robertis,Michele A. De Robertis,Tasneem Z. Naqvi,Kirsten Tolstrup,Kirsten Tolstrup,Takashi Akima,Takashi Akima,Huai Luo,Huai Luo,Robert J. Siegel,Robert J. Siegel +17 more
TL;DR: 3D aortic valve planimetry is a novel non-invasive technique, which provides an accurate and reliable quantitative assessment of AS, and both 3D methods were at least as good as TEE and had better reproducibility.
Journal ArticleDOI
Early Denervation and Later Reinnervation of the Heart Following Cardiac Transplantation: A Review.
M. Awad,Lawrence S.C. Czer,Margaret Hou,Sarah S. Golshani,Michael Goltche,Michele A. De Robertis,Michelle M. Kittleson,Jignesh Patel,Babak Azarbal,Evan P. Kransdorf,Fardad Esmailian,Alfredo Trento,Jon A. Kobashigawa +12 more
TL;DR: Heart transplantation (HTx) surgically interrupts the parasympathetic vagal neurons and the intrinsic postganglionic sympathetic nerve fibers traveling from the stellate ganglia to the myocardium, causing axonal Wallerian degeneration and thus extrinsic cardiac denervation.
Journal ArticleDOI
Pre-existing pulmonary hypertension in patients with end-stage heart failure: impact on clinical outcome and hemodynamic follow-up after orthotopic heart transplantation.
Sorel Goland,Lawrence S.C. Czer,Robert M. Kass,Michele A. De Robertis,James Mirocha,Bernice Coleman,Christopher Capelli,Sharo Raissi,Wen Cheng,Gregory P. Fontana,Alfredo Trento +10 more
TL;DR: It is found that residual post-transplant PHT is associated with decreased long-term survival and pre-existing elevated PVR that responds to vasodilator challenge does not have a negative influence on short- and long- term survival after HT.
