Does total antioxidant capacity modify adverse cardiac responses associated with ambient ultrafine, accumulation mode, and fine particles in patients undergoing cardiac rehabilitation?
In a post-infarction population, total antioxidant capacity does not appear to modify the association between biomarkers of heart rate variability, repolarization, systemic inflammation, and systolic blood pressure and ambient PM concentrations in the previous 6-120h.
Conduit treatment resulted in functional healing with bridging tissue and biomechanical integrity in 71% of avascular meniscal defects for up to 6 months after surgery. No functional healing was noted in avascular meniscal tears treated by trephination and suture repair.
