BackgroundChronic allograft nephropathy (CAN) remains a major problem for long term graft survival and different pathways participate in its development. CXC chemokine receptor 4 (CXCR4)…2016 American Transplant Congress
Memory Regulatory T Cell: A Potential Actor in Immunological Operational Tolerance in Kidney-Transplant Patients via the ATP Degradation into Adenosine.
Regulatory T cells (Tregs) are essential actors in the control of self-tolerance and exacerbated inflammation. In experimental transplantation Tregs are critical to achieve alloantigen tolerance…2016 American Transplant Congress
Outcomes of Untreated Asymptomatic Bacteriuria in Renal Transplant Recipients: A Single-Center Experience.
University of North Carolina Medical Center, Chapel Hill, NC.
Background. Renal transplant recipients (RTR) with asymptomatic bacteriuria (AB) are often treated with antibiotics. This could lead to complications related to antibiotic treatment including Clostridium…2016 American Transplant Congress
The Effect of the Use of a TNF-Alpha Inhibitor in Hypothermic Machine Perfusion on Kidney Function After Transplantation.
Organ damage associated with processes occurring during the ischaemic period as well as during and after organ reperfusion is an important problem of transplantation medicine.The…2016 American Transplant Congress
A Change in Insulin Sensitivity and Lipid Profile in Renal Transplant Recipients Converted from Cyclosporine or Standard Release Tacrolimus to Once-Daily Prolonged Release Tacrolimus.
Background : New-onset diabetes after transplantation may be associated with the use of tacrolimus (Tac) causing impaired insulin release or reduced insulin sensitivity. And, dyslipidemia…2016 American Transplant Congress
Using 3D Printing in Complex Pediatric Renal Transplantation.
Introduction:Structural complexities can render graft implantation infeasible in small paediatric recipients. Surgical decision-making currently relies on 3D medical imaging which limits evaluation of structures by…2016 American Transplant Congress
Preoperative Cytokine Storm in High MELD Patients Accentuates Incidence of Rejection Following Liver Transplantation.
