Development of Diabetic Glomerulosclerosis (DMGS) After Kidney Transplantation (KTX).
Transplant Center, Mayo Clinic, Rochester, MN.
Introduction. Causes of death-censored KTX loss are multiple and often non-alloimmune mediated. Examination of KTX biopsies after 5 years revealed an increasing number of cases…2016 American Transplant Congress
A 30% Decrease in Post-kidney Transplant Estimated Glomerular Filtration Rate (eGFR) from 6 Mo-2 Y Is a Surrogate for 5 Y eGFR: Results from Clinical Trials in Organ Transplantation-(CTOT)-17.
Predicting long-term kidney allograft outcomes using early clinical/biomarker data could guide individualized therapy. Emerging evidence in progressive native kidney disease indicates >30% decrease in eGFR…2016 American Transplant Congress
Arteriolar Hyalinosis on Renal Transplant Protocol Biopsies Is Not Associated with Tacrolimus Exposure.
Previous studies have implicated the development of arteriolar hyalinosis (AH) following kidney transplantation to chronic calcineurin inhibitor nephrotoxicity. Here, we examined the association between tacrolimus…2016 American Transplant Congress
Renal Graft Survival According to Banff 2013 Diagnostic Categories in Indication Biopsies.
1Nephrology, Hospital del Mar, Barcelona, Spain; 2Pathology, Hospital del Mar, Barcelona, Spain.
The impact of acute rejection in kidney graft survival is well known, but the prognosis of other diagnosis is uncertain. We evaluated the frequency and…2016 American Transplant Congress
Sequential and Long-Term Protocol Biopsy Is Useful for the Detection of Subclinical Lesions of Clinical Interest in Kidney Allografts.
Objectives: Detection of subclinical lesions is important to overcome the obstacles to improve long-term graft survival after kidney transplantation. The aim of this study was…2016 American Transplant Congress
Cold Ischemia Induced Outcomes in Kidney Transplantation: A Meta-Analysis.
Columbia University Medical Center, New York, NY.
Objective: To examine the association between cold ischemia time (CIT) and delayed graft function (DGF) and death-censored graft failure in kidney transplantation.Methods: To identify relevant…2016 American Transplant Congress
Early Onset Hyperuricemia Is a Prognostic Marker for Kidney Allograft Dysfunction.
Aim: It is not certain whether hyperuricemia is a true risk factor of kidney allograft failure. We investigated the association of hyperuricemia and graft outcome.Methods:…2016 American Transplant Congress
Fluctuation of Renal Function During the First Year Is Associated with Negative Impact on Long-Term Kidney Graft Survival: A Retrospective, Propensity Score-Matched Study.
Background: Post-transplant renal function in the first year has been reported to predict long-term renal graft survival. The present study examined whether the fluctuation of…2016 American Transplant Congress
Do Highly Sensitized Recipients Benefit from the Immunological Advantages of Zero Mismatched (0MM) Deceased Donors (DD) Kidney Allografts?
HLA 0MM DD transplants have superior outcomes compared with outcomes for grafts with ≥1 HLA mismatches, but when past reports analyzed 0MM outcomes in DD,…2016 American Transplant Congress
Impaired Outcome of Kidney Transplants from Donors with Acute Kidney Injury.
Given the gap between patients in need of a kidney transplantation and organs available, transplantation centers increasingly accept lower quality organs, e.g. from donors with…
