Metric Options: CountsSelecting the 1-year or 3-year option will change the metrics count to percentiles, illustrating how an article or review compares to other articles or reviews within the selected time period in the same journal. Selecting the 1-year option compares the metrics against other articles/reviews that were also published in the same calendar year. Selecting the 3-year option compares the metrics against other articles/reviews that were also published in the same calendar year plus the two years prior.
Example: if you select the 1-year option for an article published in 2019 and a metric category shows 90%, that means that the article or review is performing better than 90% of the other articles/reviews published in that journal in 2019. If you select the 3-year option for the same article published in 2019 and the metric category shows 90%, that means that the article or review is performing better than 90% of the other articles/reviews published in that journal in 2019, 2018 and 2017.

Article Description
del Nido cardioplegia (DC) offers prolonged cardiac protection with single-dose administration and has been shown to be safe in adult CABG surgery. We set out to evaluate the efficacy of cardiac protection and clinical outcomes of DC versus standard blood cardioplegia (BC) in minimally invasive aortic valve surgery. From August 2011 to May 2016, 178 patients underwent minimally invasive aortic valve replacement (mini-AVR) with BC (n = 101) or DC (n = 77). Ministernotomy or right minithoracotomy was utilized for surgical access. Clinical patient characteristics and data were extracted from our local Society of Thoracic Surgeons (STS) database and the electronic medical record. Patients were propensity matched for age, gender, body mass index, valve size and type, STS score, surgical access, preop creatinine, diabetes, and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, yielding 63 well-matched pairs. There was no difference in patient age, preoperative creatinine, body mass index, diabetes, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, or STS score between BC and DC before or after propensity matching. BC patients received both anterograde and retrograde cardioplegias in multiple doses, whereas DC was delivered almost entirely anterograde with 95% of the patients (73/77) receiving a single dose only. DC was associated with decreased cardiopulmonary bypass time (108 ± 24 vs 135 ± 43 minutes, P = 0.001) and aortic cross-clamp time (80 ± 16 vs 102 ± 30 min, P = 0.001) and maximal glucose levels during cardiopulmonary bypass (165 ± 39 vs 202 ± 49 mg/dL, P = 0.001), whereas troponin T level did not differ between DC and BC (0.3 ± 0.29 vs 0.44 ± 1.7 ng/mL, P = 0.7). Preoperative ejection fraction did not change in either BC (64% ± 12% vs 61% ± 10%, P = 0.09) or DC (58% ± 14% vs 57% ± 14%, P = 0.4) after AVR. In minimally invasive AVR surgery, DC provided equivalent myocardial protection and clinical outcomes to BC while simplifying cardioprotective regimen and reducing aortic cross-clamp time. DC was associated with lower cardiopulmonary bypass glucose levels and demonstrated the feasibility of a single-dose administration.
