Meeting: 2016 American Transplant Congress

Abstract number: D272

Keywords: Graft failure, Kidney transplantation, Survival

Session Information

Session Name: Poster Session D: Poster Session II: Kidney Complications-Other

Session Type: Poster Session

Date: Tuesday, June 14, 2016

Session Time: 6:00pm-7:00pm

 Presentation Time: 6:00pm-7:00pm

Location: Halls C&D

Background:

This study investigates the impact of pre-existing (PDM) and new onset diabetes (NODAT) on the graft and patient survival after kidney transplant.

Methods:

The UNOS database was used to identify adults (age>= 18) who underwent kidney transplants between January 1, 2004 and December 31, 2010.

A historical cohort study with 75,986 recipients (age>18 years; 2004-2010) surviving with a functioning transplant for longer than 1 year were identified using the Organ Procurement and Transplant Network/United Network for Organ Sharing database. Recipients were stratified into 3 mutually exclusive groups according to their diabetic status: Non-Diabetic; new-onset diabetes reported within the first transplant year (NODAT); and history of pretransplant diabetes mellitus (PDM). Median follow-up was 1453 days (25th-75th percentiles; 1019-2110 days) after the first post-transplant year. Multivariate stepwise cox regression were used to analyze the relative risks for the outcomes of transplant failure and patient mortality.
