Cardiovascular morbidity and mortality after orthotopic liver transplantation

Transplantation
Simon D JohnstonJames Neuberger

Abstract

Hyperlipidemia and hypertension have been reported in liver allograft recipients and contribute to an increased risk of ischemic heart disease (IHD) after orthotopic liver transplantation (OLT). The aims of the study were (1) to determine the prevalence of risk factors for IHD in these patients and (2) to compare the observed incidence of cardiovascular events and related mortality in allograft recipients with a matched population. One hundred ten consecutive adults (50 male) who attended for review after OLT (median follow-up 3.9 years; range 0.1-17.9) were assessed for cardiovascular risk factors using current blood pressure, diabetic status, and smoking history and measurements of total cholesterol, high-density lipoprotein cholesterol, and triglyceride concentrations. Cardiovascular events and cardiovascular mortality data were collected from the prospective database of all adult liver allograft recipients and compared to matched data from myocardial infarction registries and Office for National Statistics data, respectively. Raised serum cholesterol (>5.0 mmol/L) was found in 48 (44%) patients (18 male), and systolic hypertension (>140 mmHg) was found in 69 (63%) patients (27 male). The relative risk of ischemic cardiac ev...Continue Reading

Allogenic & Autologous Therapies

Allogenic therapies are generated in large batches from unrelated donor tissues such as bone marrow. In contrast, autologous therapies are manufactures as a single lot from the patient being treated. Here is the latest research on allogenic and autologous therapies.

Cardiovascular Disease Pathophysiology

Cardiovascular disease involves several different processes that contribute to the pathological mechanism, including hyperglycemia, inflammation, atherosclerosis, hypertension and more. Vasculature stability plays a critical role in the development of the disease. Discover the latest research on cardiovascular disease pathophysiology here.
