    Collapse Overview 
    Collapse overview
    Dr. Iki Adachi has written extensively about surgical, morphological, and physiological aspects of congenitally malformed hearts. His clinical and research interests include pediatric heart failure and mechanical circulatory support, including ventricular assist devices and the total artificial heart. He is studying cardiac cellular and subcellular differentiation prior to and following application of mechanical assistance. He also has an interest in pediatric lung transplantation.

    PMC Citations indicate the number of times the publication was cited by articles in PubMed Central, and the Altmetric score represents citations in news articles and social media. (Note that publications are often cited in additional ways that are not shown here.) Fields are based on how the National Library of Medicine (NLM) classifies the publication's journal and might not represent the specific topic of the publication. Translation tags are based on the publication type and the MeSH terms NLM assigns to the publication. Some publications (especially newer ones and publications not in PubMed) might not yet be assigned Field or Translation tags.) Click a Field or Translation tag to filter the publications.
