Lipid peroxidation and changes in vitamin E levels during coronary artery bypass grafting.
TL;DR: It is suggested that systemic lipid peroxidation occurs during bypass and that vitamin E may play a protective role during routine bypass grafting by attenuating the degree of peroxidative damage.

Richard Grocott-Mason,Ole Lund,H. Elwidaa,Rashid Mazhar,V Chandrasakeran,Andrew G. Mitchell,C Ilsley,Asghar Khaghani,A. Rees,Magdi H. Yacoub +9 more
TL;DR: Long-term outcome of homograft aortic valve replacement in patients with congestive heart failure is acceptable, with a reduced rate of serious complications and cardiac death, and further improvements would be expected if the rate of primary tissue failure could be reduced.
