Ischemic preconditioning improves rat kidney allograft function after ischemia/reperfusion injury: the role of tumor necrosis factor-alpha.

abstract：:Left ventricular assist device (LVAD) management is very challenging since many adverse events can occur in ongoing patients. Inadequate anticoagulation treatment can lead to life-threatening situations like ischemic stroke or pump thrombosis. The main intention of our study was to investigate if early identification ...
