Research problems linked to this topic
- Acute mesenteric ischemia represents a life-threatening gastrointestinal condition.
- Acute colonic ischemia is the most common form of intestinal ischemia.
- Critical limb ischemia (CLI) remains a challenge for an interdisciplinary therapeutic team due to chronic nonhealing wounds.
- Ischemic disorders of the heart can cause an irreversible loss of cardiomyocytes resulting in a substantial decrease of cardiac output.
- Ischemia-reperfusion injury (IRI), an innate immunity-driven local inflammation, remains the major problem in clinical organ transplantation.
- Hepatic ischemia/reperfusion (I/R) injury is characterized by hepatocellular damage, sterile inflammation, and compromised postoperative liver function.
- Chronic ischemic mitral regurgitation (IMR) is still a significant clinical problem.
- Ischemic heart disease is the major cause of death in developed countries and infarct size is the major determinant of prognosis.
- Ischemia and reperfusion injury is a pathologic process with serious consequences, arising due to interruption of arterial blood flow.
- Hypoxia is a typical hallmark of various diseases, including cancer, ischemic diseases, and stroke.
- Ischemia-reperfusion injury remains a major clinical problem in liver transplantation.
- Aortic dissection masquerading as ischemic stroke is particularly challenging in the era of thrombolysis as a result of narrow diagnostic time window and severe hemorrhagic potential.
- Renal ischemia/reperfusion (I/R) injury occurs in patients undergoing renal transplantation and with acute kidney injury and is responsible for the development of chronic allograft dysfunction as characterized by parenchymal alteration and fibrosis.
- Cerebral ischemia is a devastating condition in which the outcome is heavily influenced by inflammatory processes, which can augment primary injury caused by reduced blood supply.
- Ischemic heart disease is the interruption of blood supply to the heart causes several biochemical alterations which may lead to cardiac dysfunction and ultimately cell death.
