Red blood cell transfusion induces abnormal HIF-1α response to cytokine storm after adult cardiac surgery

Abstract Patients undergoing cardiac surgery develop a marked postoperative systemic inflammatory response. Blood transfusion may contribute to disruption of homeostasis in these patients. We sought to evaluate the impact of blood transfusion on serum interleukin-6 (IL-6), hypoxia induced factor-1 a...
