Do intragraft pressures predict outcomes in hemodialysis patients with graft outflow lesions undergoing percutaneous transluminal angioplasty?
IGP might be useful to evaluate procedural endpoints and predict patency outcomes in hemodialysis patients with graft outflow lesions undergoing PTA. Patients with the greater pre-PTA or post-PTA IGP, to some level, seem to have the shorter patency.
At 1 year of age after repair of tetralogy of Fallot, most patients had neurodevelopmental scores within the normal range. Genetic syndromes and the apolipoprotein E epsilon2 allele were important risk factors for neurodevelopmental dysfunction and accounted for some interindividual differences in outcome.
