TL;DR: Doppler echocardiographic evaluation of left ventricular diastolic function provides an excellent tool for early detection of acute rejection and noninvasive monitoring of the cardiac transplant recipient.

TL;DR: To determine if acebutolol, a cardioselective beta-blocking drug, preventsSupraventricular tachyarrhythmias after CABG, 100 consecutive patients were entered into a randomized, controlled study.

TL;DR: Following episodes of pulmonary embolism, the presence of thrombi in the pulmonary arteries leads to severe respiratory insufficiency and chronic right heart failure, and 16 patients, nine men and seven women from 23 to 68 years of age, are operated upon, three are excellent condition--completely asymptomatic.

TL;DR: Cardiac function at rest is satisfactory at short- and long-term assessment after orthotopic cardiac transplantation, but the development and persistence of systemic arterial hypertension associated with cyclosporine use are a matter of concern in such patients.
