Metric Options: Counts1 Year3 YearSelecting 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
In experimental animal models reperfusion of ischaemic myocardium causes sequestration of leucocytes within the coronary circulation. Leucocytes contribute to postischaemic myocardial injury by releasing proteolytic enzymes and by generating oxygen free radicals. The aim of this study was to investigate whether leucocytes also contribute to myocardial injury following ischaemia and reperfusion associated with cardioplegic cardiac arrest. Therefore, we studied the release of the proteolytic enzyme elastase and oxygen free radical initiated myocardial lipid peroxidation in coronary sinus blood during reperfusion after cardioplegic cardiac arrest. The elastase‐alpha‐1‐proteinase inhibitor complex and malondialdehyde (a byproduct of myocardial lipid peroxidation) were measured in arterial, central venous and coronary sinus blood samples in 19 patients undergoing elective coronary artery bypass grafting before aortic crossclamping and 1,5, 10 and 20 min after aortic declamping. Malondialdehyde concentrations did not increase significantly during the study period, whereas elastase concentrations showed a significant increase during cardiopulmonary bypass in arterial, central venous as well as coronary sinus blood. Neither elastase nor malondialhyde concentrations in coronary sinus blood differed significantly from arterial or central venous blood at any time point measured. Our data demonstrated increased elastase concentrations during cardiopulmonary bypass, but we did not find enhanced intracoronary elastase release or myocardial lipid peroxidation. Our data suggest that patients are sufficiently protected from leucocyte mediated ischaemia reperfusion injury during uncomplicated coronary artery bypass grafting with cardioplegic arrest.
