Background A substantial proportion of patients suffer prolonged length of intensive care unit stay (PLOS) or prolonged mechanical ventilation (PMV) following coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG). Identifying factors associated with PLOS and PMV wo

The pro-inflammatory cytokine IL-6 may be neurocytopathogenic, and elevated levels are associated with impaired neurological outcome among children born prematurely. However, the precise mechanisms underlying this association remain unclear. The rare

Many of the symptoms of heart failure (breathlessness and fatigue) are not primarily due to reduced cardiac output, but relate to an impairment of peripheral muscle performance and metabolic efficiency. With regular training it is possible to increas

Interleukin-6 (IL-6) synthesized in response to diverse stimuli may play an important role in bridging the inflammatory and atherosclerotic processes. The acute-phase response after coronary artery bypass graft surgery (CABG) is associated with the i

—Reduced arterial compliance precedes changes in blood pressure, which may be mediated through alterations in vessel wall matrix composition. We investigated the effect of the collagen type I-α1 gene ( COL1A1 ) +2046G>T polymorphism on arterial co
