Dynamics of Delayed Graft Function-Associated Risk in Deceased Donor Kidney Transplantation.
The long-term implications of delayed graft function (DGF) remain controversial. Moreover, non-proportional hazards of DGF have been reported in previous studies, which suggested that its…2016 American Transplant Congress
Relationship Between Mean Fluorescence Intensity and C1q/C3d-Fixing Capacities of Anti-HLA Antibodies.
The capacity of anti-HLA antibodies (Abs) to activate complement is thought to be an informative property susceptible to facilitate outcome prediction. Two different tests, C1q-…2016 American Transplant Congress
DSA After Transplant Increases Risk of Renal Allograft Failure Independent of Concurrent Biopsy Results: The DEKAF Study Data.
Donor-specific HLA antibodies (DSA) are a major cause of renal allograft dysfunction and loss following transplant. The presence of DSA, with or without C4d deposition,…2016 American Transplant Congress
The Effect of Donor Age on Acute Rejection Age – The Clinical Impact of Donor Immuno-Senescence in the Modern Immunosuppressive Era.
Cardiff Transplant Unit, University Hospital of Wales, Cardiff, United Kingdom.
Experimental work has shown that donor age may alter the immune response of the recipient so that older donor grafts elicit a stronger response in…2016 American Transplant Congress
IFTA Is Linked to Urinary Microbiome Changes.
Department of Molecular and Experimental Medicine, The Scripps Research Institute, La Jolla, CA.
Purpose: The microbiome is important to human health and alteration may lead to aberrant immunity and disease. Interstitial fibrosis and tubular atrophy(IFTA) occurs in 20%…2016 American Transplant Congress
The Relationship Between Kidney Donor Profile Index and Six Month eGFR in Deceased Donor Recipients.
Division of Nephrology, University of Virginia, Charlottesville, VA.
Kidney function, as measured by GFR, at 6 months post-kidney transplant is a powerful predictor of long-term post-transplant outcomes. This study sought to understand the…2016 American Transplant Congress
Pre-Existing Chronic Heart Failure in Kidney Transplantation: An Underestimated Risk Factor for Graft Loss?
Nephrology, Charité University, Berlin, Germany.
BACKGROUND: Cardio-renal interactions influence graft and patient survival in kidney transplant recipients (KTR). There is only few data available analyzing pre-existing chronic heart failure (CHF)…
