Despite the increasing use and success of interventional coronary reperfusion strategies,
morbidity and mortality from acute myocardial infarction are still substantial. Myocardial …

The potential for ischemic preconditioning to reduce infarct size was first recognized more
than 30 years ago [180]. Despite extension of the concept to ischemic postcondition‑ing …

Background Remote ischaemic conditioning with transient ischaemia and reperfusion
applied to the arm has been shown to reduce myocardial infarct size in patients with ST …

Background Whether remote ischemic preconditioning (transient ischemia and reperfusion
of the arm) can improve clinical outcomes in patients undergoing coronary-artery bypass …

Background Remote ischemic preconditioning (RIPC) is reported to reduce biomarkers of
ischemic and reperfusion injury in patients undergoing cardiac surgery, but uncertainty …

The 30-year anniversary of the discovery of'ischaemic preconditioning'is in 2016. This
endogenous phenomenon can paradoxically protect the heart from acute myocardial …

In remote ischemic conditioning (RIC), brief, reversible episodes of ischemia with
reperfusion in one vascular bed, tissue, or organ confer a global protective phenotype and …

Acute myocardial infarction (MI) is a major cause of death and disability worldwide. In
patients with MI, the treatment of choice for reducing acute myocardial ischemic injury and …

Remodelling is a response of the myocardium and vasculature to a range of potentially
noxious haemodynamic, metabolic, and inflammatory stimuli. Remodelling is initially …

Pre-, post-, and remote conditioning of the myocardium are well described adaptive
responses that markedly enhance the ability of the heart to withstand a prolonged …
