Rao V, Christakis G, Sever J, Fremes S, Bhatnagar G, Cohen G, et al.
J Thorac Cardiovasc Surg . 1999 Feb; 117(3):431-6; discussion 436-38. PMID: 10047644
Background: Previous studies have compared prosthetic valves on the basis of industry-labeled valve sizes. Unfortunately, the relationship between the labeled size and the true measured external or internal diameter differs...

Cohen G, Iazetta J, Bunting P, Mallidi H, Bozinovski J, Deemar C, et al.
Circulation . 1998 Dec; 98(19 Suppl):II225-33. PMID: 9852907
Background: Laboratory evidence supports the use of adenosine-supplemented cardioplegia. An initial phase 1 dose-ranging clinical evaluation demonstrated that an adenosine concentration of 15 mumol/L could be safely administered with warm...

Borger M, Cohen G, Buth K, Rao V, Bozinovski J, Mallidi H, et al.
Circulation . 1998 Dec; 98(19 Suppl):II7-13; discussion II13-4. PMID: 9852873
Background: Left internal thoracic artery (LITA) grafts to the left anterior descending coronary artery (LAD) during coronary bypass surgery (CABG) have greater patency rates than saphenous vein grafts and reduce...

Christakis G, Buth K, Goldman B, Fremes S, Rao V, Cohen G, et al.
Ann Thorac Surg . 1998 Nov; 66(4):1198-203. PMID: 9800806
Background: The sizes with which manufacturers label valves are nonuniform and haphazard. This has led to confusion and inappropriate comparisons of hemodynamics between valves with the same labeled size. Hemodynamic...

Del Rizzo D, Fremes S, Christakis G, Sever J, Goldman B
Cardiovasc Surg . 1998 Apr; 6(1):81-9. PMID: 9546851
To assess the efficacy of arterial revascularization 368 patients were studied who underwent myocardial revascularization with two or more arterial conduits (group M) and compared with 2092 patients in whom...

Rao V, Weisel R, Buth K, Cohen G, Borger M, Shiono N, et al.
Circulation . 1997 Dec; 96(9 Suppl):II-38-43; discussion II-44-5. PMID: 9386073
Background: Preoperative renal failure increases the morbidity and mortality of coronary artery bypass graft (CABG) surgery. The results of CABG in patients with non-dialysis-dependent, mild renal insufficiency are unknown. Methods:...

Urchuk S, Fremes S, Plewes D
Magn Reson Med . 1997 Aug; 38(2):215-23. PMID: 9256100
MR imaging experiments were conducted to investigate the feasibility of estimating vascular pulse pressure waveforms from measurements of blood flow rates and vessel cross-sectional area. Blood flow waveforms were measured...

Christakis G, Lichtenstein S, Buth K, Fremes S, Weisel R, Naylor C
Eur J Cardiothorac Surg . 1997 Mar; 11(3):515-20. PMID: 9105817
Objective: The Warm Heart Investigators Trial randomized isolated coronary bypass patients to cold or warm cardioplegia, and demonstrated that warm cardioplegia significantly reduced the prevalence of low output syndrome and...

Zhang J, Furukawa R, Fremes S, Mickle D, Weisel R
Ann Thorac Surg . 1997 Feb; 63(2):388-94. PMID: 9033306
Background: The optimal temperature for cardiac allograft storage remains controversial. We conjectured that supplementation of the potent cardioprotective agent 2,3-butanedione monoxime with calcium may improve allograft storage and make the...

Fremes S, Levy S, Christakis G, Walker S, Iazetta J, Mallidi H, et al.
Circulation . 1996 Nov; 94(9 Suppl):II370-5. PMID: 8901777
Background: The cardioprotective role of adenosine in various models of ischemia-reperfusion, including adenosine supplementation to cardioplegic formulations, has been studied extensively. The appropriate dose of adenosine in humans is uncertain...
