Perfusion weighted imaging (PWI) is critical for determining whether stroke patients presenting in an extended time window are candidates for mechanical thrombectomy. However, PWI is not always availa...
The National Institutes of Health (NIH) FHV score was developed to quantify the burden of FHV and applied to magnetic resonance imaging scans of stroke patients with fluid-attenuated inversion recover...
There were 101 patients included in the analysis, of whom 78% had a perfusion deficit detected on PWI with a mean lesion volume of 47 (±59) mL. The NIH-FHV score was strongly associated with the PWI l...
The NIH-FHV score provides an estimate of the PWI lesion volume and, when combined with diffusion weighted imaging, may be helpful when trying to determine whether there is a clinically relevant diffu...
Although hypothermic machine perfusion (HMP) is associated with improved kidney graft viability and function, the underlying biological mechanisms are unknown. Untargeted metabolomic profiling may ide...
This letter responds to the article "Neither Ethical nor Prudent: Why Not to Choose Normothermic Regional Perfusion," by Adam Omelianchuk et al., in the July-August 2024 issue of the Hastings Center R...
Type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) is associated with altered cerebral vasoreactivity, cognitive impairment, and functional decline. Magnetic Resonance (MR) perfusion can be used to assess cerebral blood...
The study included 52 patients diagnosed with T2DM and 39 healthy individuals. The diabetic patients were classified into three groups (PRP: proliferative retinopathy, NPRP: non-proliferative retinopa...
The comparison between the T2DM group and the control group revealed that rCBF values of bilateral frontal lobes, cingulate gyrus, medial temporal lobe, thalami and right occipital lobe were measured ...
Regional hypoperfusion was encountered in most of the lobes in the T2DM group when compared with the healthy group. However, in terms of rCBF values, there was no significant difference among the thre...
Pulmonary blood flow can be assessed on ventilation-perfusion (VQ) scan with relative lung perfusion, with a 55% to 45% (or 10%) right-to-left differential considered normal. We hypothesized that wide...
We conducted a retrospective cohort study on all patients who underwent double-lung transplant in our program between 2005 and 2016, identifying patients with a wide perfusion differential of >10% on ...
Of 340 patients who met inclusion criteria, 169 (49%) had a relative perfusion differential of ≥ 10% on a 3-mo VQ scan. Patients with increased perfusion differential had increased risk of death or re...
Wide lung perfusion differential was common after lung transplant in our cohort and associated with increased risk of death, poor lung function, and CLAD onset. The nature of this abnormality and its ...
Although COVID-19 infection is associated with the increased risk of pulmonary thromboembolism (PTE), COVID-19 pulmonary lesions cause ventilation-perfusion (V/Q) patterns other than PTE. Although ext...
This article describes fabrication of a customizable bioreactor, which comprises a perfusion system and coverslip-based tissue culture chamber that allow centimeter-scale vascularized or otherwise can...
We aimed at examining both the incidence and extent of different lung perfusion abnormalities as well as the relationship between them on Tc-99m macroaggregated albumin (MAA) perfusion-only SPECT/CT s...
Ninety-one patients (71.4 ± 13.9 years; range: 29-98 years, median age: 74 years; 45 female and 46 male) with confirmed SARS-CoV-2 virus infection were included in this retrospective study. After perf...
Moderately severe parenchymal lesions were detected in 87 (95.6%) patients. Although, 50 (54.95%) patients were depicted to have MM lesions, the whole patient cohort was mildly affected by this abnorm...
Heterogeneous perfusion abnormalities were found in most of COVID-19 patients: parenchymal lesions with normal, decreased or increased perfusion and perfusion defects in healthy lung areas. These phen...
Liver transplantation is the only chance of cure for people with end-stage liver disease and some people with advanced liver cancers or acute liver failure. The increasing prevalence of these conditio...
To evaluate the effects of different methods of machine perfusion (including hypothermic oxygenated machine perfusion (HOPE), normothermic machine perfusion (NMP), controlled oxygenated rewarming, and...
We used standard, extensive Cochrane search methods. The latest search date was 10 January 2023....
We included randomised clinical trials which compared different methods of machine perfusion, either with each other or with SCS. Studies comparing HOPE via both hepatic artery and portal vein, or via...
We used standard Cochrane methods. Our primary outcomes were 1. overall participant survival, 2. quality of life, and 3. serious adverse events. Secondary outcomes were 4. graft survival, 5. ischaemic...
We included seven randomised trials (1024 transplant recipients from 1301 randomised/included livers). All trials were parallel two-group trials; four compared HOPE versus SCS, and three compared NMP ...
In situations where the decision has been made to transplant a liver donated after circulatory death or donated following brain death, end-ischaemic HOPE will provide superior clinically relevant outc...
The field of organ transplantation has been facing the problem of organ shortage for several years. It is even more crucial since the number of patients on the waiting list is growing steadily. There ...
