The retrograde flush, inhaled NO and FOY infusion are beneficial to the protection of the NHBD lung grafts at an early reperfusion period, through different mechanisms. The use of these treatments in combination might help us to find a better way to protect the NHBD grafts against the preservation and reperfusion injury.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
