Journal ArticleDOI
Survival, Neurologic Injury, and Kidney Function after Surgery for Acute Type A Aortic Dissection.
Felix Schoenrath,Raffael Labèr,Mergime Maralushaj,Deborah Henzi,Etem Caliskan,Burkhardt Seifert,Dominique Bettex,Christoph Starck,Martin Czerny,Volkmar Falk +9 more
TL;DR: Treatment and prevention strategies for renal failure during the acute and long-term course after acute type A aortic dissection are warranted and preexisting renal impairment is predictive of postoperative renal failure.
Journal ArticleDOI
Extracellular matrix gene expression correlates to left ventricular mass index after surgical induction of left ventricular hypertrophy.
Andreas Schubert,Thomas Walther,Volkmar Falk,Christian Binner,Nadine Löscher,Andreas Kanev,Sabine Bleiziffer,Thomas Rauch,Rüdiger Autschbach,Friedrich W. Mohr +9 more
TL;DR: A close correlation between changes in LVMI and ECM gene expression was found, suggesting Alterations in ECm gene expression may be part of the adaptive process during left ventricular remodeling.
Journal ArticleDOI
Up-regulation of Bcl-2 through hyperbaric pressure transfection of TGF-β1 ameliorates ischemia-reperfusion injury in rat cardiac allografts
Jürg Grünenfelder,Douglas N. Miniati,Seiichiro Murata,Volkmar Falk,E. Grant Hoyt,Robert C. Robbins +5 more
TL;DR: Therapeutic overexpression of myocardial TGF-beta1 may be clinically useful to control ischemia-reperfusion injury associated with cardiac transplantation and prevent bcl-2 cleavage and increased TNF-alpha production.
Journal ArticleDOI
Assessment of metabolic liver function and hepatic blood flow during cardiopulmonary bypass.
Rüdiger Autschbach,Volkmar Falk,H. Lange,Michael Oellerich,T Walther,Friedrich-Wilhelm Mohr,Harald Dalichau +6 more
TL;DR: A modified monoethylglycinexylidide (MEGX) test was performed in 14 patients undergoing myocardial revascularization to evaluate liver function during cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB), and a decrease in MEGX formation was found during CPB.
Journal ArticleDOI
Live broadcasting in cardiac surgery does not increase the operative risk.
Joerg Seeburger,Anno Diegeler,Dossche K,Rüdiger Lange,Friedrich W. Mohr,Christian Schreiber,Hugo Vanermen,Volkmar Falk +7 more
TL;DR: There is no evidence for an excess perioperative risk for patients operated under the conditions of live broadcasting and the rate of mitral valve repair compares favourably with repair rates presented in national registries.
