Intra-operative cardiac arrests during liver transplantation - a retrospective review of the first 15 yr in Asian population.

abstract：INTRODUCTION:Heart transplant (HTx) recipients need to follow a complex therapeutic regimen. We assessed the international prevalence and variability in nonadherence to six nonpharmacologic treatment components (physical activity, sun protection, diet, alcohol use, nonsmoking, and outpatient follow-up visits). METHODS...

abstract：:Cell-mediated responses to xenoantigens are different from those to alloantigens. CD4+ T cells are especially important in xenoresponses and depletion of CD4+ T cells can prolong survival of xenografts better than allografts in some circumstances. The difference between the two responses is due in part to the relative...
