Congenital diaphragmatic hernia requiring extracorporeal membrane oxygenation: does timing of repair matter?
These data suggest that CDH repair after ECMO therapy is associated with improved survival compared to repair on ECMO, despite controlling for factors associated with the severity of CDH.
AAV is associated with increased prevalence of DR4 and the ancestral haplotype A1B8DR3 and with decreased prevalence of DR13(6), particularly in patients with WG. In patients with WG, prevalence of DR1 was decreased, whereas in patients with CSS DR8 was increased. No associations between HLA antigens and disease characteristics or course of AAV were found.
