Nesiritide for Ventilated Congestive Heart Failure
The congestive heart failure is a common disease among patients who receive cardiac surgery and may lead to prolonged ventilation support. Nesiritide was a potential therapy for congestive heart failure. This study aimed to compare the Nesiritide induced hemodynamical status changes among congestive heart failure patients with invasive ventilation support.

Cancer Therapy Effects on the Heart
Anthracycline chemotherapies (e.g. doxorubicin, daunorubicin) is commonly given to treat pediatric cancer, and carries a risk of cardiotoxicity. Over the long term, children who receive these therapies have an increased risk of heart failure and early cardiovascular death. However, current strategies for identifying patients who are at risk prior to …

Cellular Immunity, Neuroendocrine, and Inflammatory Factors for Clinical Prognosis in Acute Coronary Syndrome
In acute coronary syndrome (ACS), there is an increase in cortisol levels, as an expression of the stress response, and C-reactive protein, as an expression of the inflammatory response, which are in turn associated with changes in the components of cellular immunity, and ultimately are predictors of clinical events. The …
