The Optimal Time Point for Steroid Withdrawal After Kidney Transplantation Is One Year After Engraftment.
The optimal time of steroid withdrawal after kidney transplantation remains elusive, since RCTs can evaluate one predefined time point. Thus we analyzed all first kidney…2016 American Transplant Congress
Impact of Delayed Graft Function Varies by Demographic and Clinical Characteristics in Deceased Donor Kidney Transplantation.
Single-center studies have suggested potential differences in the impact of DGF by recipients' biological susceptibility, quality of allograft, and immune compatibility. The goal of this…2016 American Transplant Congress
Association of Neighborhood Poverty and Living Donor Kidney Transplant Rates by Donor Relationship to Recipient.
Medicine, University of Virginia, Charlottesville, VA.
Background: Living donor (LD) kidney transplant is associated with increased access to transplant and improved patient and allograft outcomes. Despite the known benefits, LD rates…2016 American Transplant Congress
Is C3d-fixing Donor Specific HLA Antibody Detection Really Necessary?
Introduction: Chronic antibody–mediated rejection is the main cause of late kidney graft loss. The identification of donor-specific antibodies (DSA) in the serum is one of…2016 American Transplant Congress
Malignancies Contribute to Presensitization with Alloreactive T-Cells in Kidney Transplant Recipients.
Alloreactive T-cells have been suggested to impact allograft outcome due to a higher incidence of acute rejection in the initial period after kidney transplantation. Knowledge…2016 American Transplant Congress
Human B Cell Cytokines Predict Renal Allograft Rejection and Early Transplant Outcomes.
In renal transplantation, non-invasive biomarkers that are predictive and allow for early intervention are limited. Here we report findings from a prospective longitudinal study of…2016 American Transplant Congress
Accumulation of Highly Sensitized Patients in a KPD Registry.
University of Toledo, Toledo, OH.
Objectives: We analyzed sensitization against HLA among patients in a kidney paired donation (KPD) registry. In particular, three groups of patients were included: 1) all…2016 American Transplant Congress
Prediction of Patient Survival After Kidney Transplantation: Construction, Validation and Evaluation of Decision Models Using Data Mining Approaches.
Understanding the risk factors that predispose to death is important in order to deliver the most appropriate therapy to patients (pts) with kidney transplantation (Tx).…2016 American Transplant Congress
ER Stress and Loss of GRP78 Expression Provides a Link Between Renal Ischemia/Reperfusion Injury and the Urinary Metabolome.
Ischemia/reperfusion injury (IRI) profoundly impacts graft survival following kidney transplantation. Epithelial injury is one of the earliest histological alterations of IRI and is especially observed…2016 American Transplant Congress
The Role of B Cells in Liver Transplant Tolerance.
Scarcely one would argue that donor-specific B cells and antibodies contribute to rejection of transplants. However, studies published in the past few years have provided…
