TLR4 Expression Is Associated with Left Ventricular Dysfunction in Patients Undergoing Coronary Artery Bypass Surgery
Avlas O, Bragg A, Fuks A, Nicholson J, Farkash A, Porat E, et al.
PLoS One . 2015 Jun; 10(6):e0120175. PMID: 26030867
Introduction: Toll-like receptor 4 (TLR4) is an innate immune receptor expressed in immune cells and the heart. Activation of the immune system following myocardial ischemia causes the release of proinflammatory...

[Large pericardial cyst in a young woman presenting with fever abdominal pain and diarrhea]
Eisen A, Hasdai D, Orvin K, Bobovnikov S, Porat E, Iakobishvilli Z
Harefuah . 2013 Dec; 152(9):518-9, 565, 564. PMID: 24364090
Pericardial cysts are rare mediastinal abnormalities occurring in 1 in 100,000 persons. Most pericardial cysts are congenital but may also be acquired. Their presence poses a diagnostic challenge, distinguishing them...

Two-year outcomes for patients with severe symptomatic aortic stenosis treated with transcatheter aortic valve implantation
Codner P, Assali A, Dvir D, Vaknin-Assa H, Porat E, Shapira Y, et al.
Am J Cardiol . 2013 Feb; 111(9):1330-6. PMID: 23415022
Transcatheter aortic valve implantation (TAVI) is an emerging technique for the treatment of severe symptomatic aortic stenosis. Little has been reported about the use of different devices and multiple catheter-based...

Elevated level of pro-inflammatory eicosanoids and EPC dysfunction in diabetic patients with cardiac ischemia
Issan Y, Hochhauser E, Guo A, Gotlinger K, Kornowski R, Leshem-Lev D, et al.
Prostaglandins Other Lipid Mediat . 2013 Jan; 100-101:15-21. PMID: 23291334
Background: Circulating endothelial progenitor cells (EPCs) are recruited from the blood system to sites of ischemia and endothelial damage, where they contribute to the repair and development of blood vessels....

Exercise training improves cardiac function and attenuates arrhythmia in CPVT mice
Kurtzwald-Josefson E, Hochhauser E, Katz G, Porat E, Seidman J, Seidman C, et al.
J Appl Physiol (1985) . 2012 Oct; 113(11):1677-83. PMID: 23042908
Catecholaminergic polymorphic ventricular tachycardia (CPVT) is a lethal ventricular arrhythmia evoked by physical or emotional stress. Recessively inherited CPVT is caused by either missense or null-allele mutations in the cardiac...

Clinical profile and outcome of patients with severe aortic stenosis at high surgical risk: single-center prospective evaluation according to treatment assignment
Dvir D, Sagie A, Porat E, Assali A, Shapira Y, Vaknin-Assa H, et al.
Catheter Cardiovasc Interv . 2012 Aug; 81(5):871-81. PMID: 22915555
Background: The study sought to assess the clinical profile, outcome, and predictors for mortality of "real-world" high-risk severe aortic stenosis patients according to the mode of treatment assigned. Methods: Patients...

[Transcatheter aortic-valve implantation]
Dvir D, Assali A, Porat E, Sagie A, Shapira Y, Vaknin-Assa H, et al.
Harefuah . 2012 May; 151(4):237-41, 252. PMID: 22616154
Aortic valve stenosis is associated with severe morbidity and death within several years of symptom onset, and its accepted treatment is surgical aortic valve replacement. However, many affected patients are...

Endothelial progenitor cell function inversely correlates with long-term glucose control in diabetic patients: association with the attenuation of the heme oxygenase-adiponectin axis
Issan Y, Hochhauser E, Kornowski R, Leshem-Lev D, Lev E, Sharoni R, et al.
Can J Cardiol . 2012 Mar; 28(6):728-36. PMID: 22445099
Background: Endothelial progenitor cells (EPCs) are attenuated, both in number and functionality, in animal models of chronic cardiovascular and metabolic disorders. This effect has subsequently been linked to the aggravation...

Distal left anterior descending coronary artery obstruction: a rare complication of transapical aortic valve implantation
Dvir D, Assali A, Porat E, Kornowski R
J Invasive Cardiol . 2011 Dec; 23(12):E281-3. PMID: 22147409
Apical complications are considered the "Achilles' heel" of transapical aortic valve implantation, in which laceration and hemorrhage are potentially fatal. We describe the case of a rare complication of the...

The value of intraoperative transesophageal echocardiography in patients undergoing aortic valve replacement
Weisenberg D, Sagie A, Vaturi M, Monakier D, Sharoni E, Porat E, et al.
J Heart Valve Dis . 2011 Nov; 20(5):540-4. PMID: 22066358
Background And Aim Of The Study: While the role of intraoperative transesophageal echocardiography (IOTEE) in valve repair surgery is well documented, its value in patients undergoing valve replacement is debatable....
