Radiosensitive Cell Population Prolongs Graft Survival of Vascularized Composite Allografts in Non-Human Primates.
University of Maryland School of Medicine, Baltimore, MD.
Background: Vascularized composite allografts (VCA) containing vascularized bone marrow (VBM) prolong graft survival. To help elucidate this protective immunomodulatory effect, we irradiated donor facial VCA…2016 American Transplant Congress
Incidence of Viral Infections in HLA-Sensitized Patients (HS Pts) Desensitized with IVIG + Rituximab (DES) Compared to Non-HS Pts Receiving Standard Immunosuppression.
Comprehensive Transplant Center, Cedars-Sinai Medical Center, Los Angeles, CA.
Introduction: HS pts (PRA>50%, DSA+ at transplant) who are transplanted without DES represent a significant risk for antibody-mediated rejection. Prior to transplantation, HS pts require…2016 American Transplant Congress
5-Year Follow-Up After Live Donor Nephrectomy – A Prospective Cohort Study.
BackgroundRecently some studies have reported less favorable results after live kidney donation. We investigated therefore which donors will possibly be at risk for chronic kidney…2016 American Transplant Congress
In Their Own Words: Living Kidney Donors Who Develop Kidney Failure.
Background: Psychosocial data about living kidney donation have been collected for almost five decades. The results are almost uniformly positive, even in the early years…2016 American Transplant Congress
Natural Language Processing Methods Allow Reliable Extraction of Banff Scores and Grades.
Objective: National Data are sparse with regard to pathology of rejection. Incorporating biopsy pathology grades and lesion scores into analyses requires manual extraction and entry…2016 American Transplant Congress
Transitional B Cell T1/T2 Ratio Is a Prognostic Marker for Human Renal Allograft Deterioration.
1UPMC, Pittsburgh; 2University of Leeds, Leeds, United Kingdom.
Human transitional B cells (TrB) may play a significant role in auto and alloimmune disease. TrB express a high IL10:TNFα ratio and this fell with…2016 American Transplant Congress
Selection of Patients with Solitary Lesion of Hepatocellular Cancer for Liver Transplantation.
Milan criteria are considered as benchmark for selection of patients with hepatocellular cancer (HCC) for liver transplantation. The aim of this study was to evaluate…2016 American Transplant Congress
Clinical Usefulness of mRECIST Response to Chemoembolization for Recurrence Prediction of Hepatocellular Carcinoma in Living Donor Liver Transplantation.
Background Predicting risk for recurrence of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) following living donor liver transplantation (LDLT) is clinically important.Methods We performed a retrospective study for assessment…2016 American Transplant Congress
Refill-Based Immunosuppression Non-Adherence Is Associated with Increased Death Censored Graft Loss.
Medicine, University of Alberta, Edmonton, AB, Canada.
Introduction Medication non-adherence is a major contributor of graft loss in kidney transplant(KTX) recipients. We aim to evaluate the association of immunosuppression non-adherence to graft…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…
