OverviewAI-generated summary
Dala Zakaria, Associate Professor in the Department of Pediatrics at the University of Arkansas for Medical Sciences, focuses her research on congenital heart disease (CHD) and related outcomes in pediatric populations. Her work investigates risk factors for prolonged hospital stays following cardiac surgery, such as in children with coarctation of the aorta. Dr. Zakaria also studies the effectiveness of serial assessments of right ventricular function in detecting acute cellular rejection in heart transplant recipients and explores protein alterations in children undergoing specific surgical procedures like superior cavopulmonary anastomosis. Additionally, her research examines developmental language trajectories in children with critical CHD and the role of protein-losing enteropathy in failing Fontan circulations. Dr. Zakaria has published 44 papers, with an h-index of 8 and 192 citations. She collaborates with several researchers at her institution, including Murad Almasri, Markus S. Renno, Joshua Daily, and Stephen T. Dalby.
