• Plasma-supplemented red cell concentrates as an alternative to whole blood in porcine EVHP
• Can IL-2 complex therapy prolong fully MHC-mismatched murine cardiac allograft survival?
• Endothelin-1 overexpression in pulmonary endarterectomy specimens of CTEPH patients—and its association with development of PH
• Using cell-free DNA evidence to determine if early post-transplant recipient tissue injury predicts allograft function, rejection, and survival in lung transplant
