Impact of Repeat Testing of Living Organ Donors after Implementation of a Protocol To Repeat Testing within 14 Days of the Transplant Procedure: A Multi-Center Retrospective Survey
Background: Transmission of HIV by a live donor prompted the NY State Dept of Health and CDC to recommend that all live donors undergo additional…2013 American Transplant Congress
First Kidney Graft Survival Is Associated with Second Kidney Transplant Outcomes in Pediatric Patients with Highly Recurrent Disease
Intro: Pediatric kidney transplant(KTx) patients with FSGS/SLE/HUS(Focal Segmental Glomerulosclerosis/Lupus/Hemolytic Uremic Syndrome) may experience recurrent disease which negatively impacts graft survival. We examined whether first graft…2013 American Transplant Congress
Time-Varying Relationship between Aboriginal Racial Origin and Transplant Outcomes in Australia, The
Aboriginal Australians have markedly higher rates of kidney disease. Rates of kidney transplantation from deceased donor kidneys are substantially lower, with few live donors. Outcomes…2013 American Transplant Congress
Decreasing Estimated Glomerular Filtration Rate (eGFR) Is Associated with an Increasing Risk of Hospitalization in the First Year Post Renal Transplantation
Background: A decrease in renal function is associated with an increased risk of cardiovascular disease, graft loss and mortality following renal transplantation. It is unclear…2013 American Transplant Congress
Low Birth Weight and Risk of Proteinuria in Former Kidney Donors
Department of Medicine, University of Minnesota, Minneapolis, MN
Introduction: Low birth weight (LBW) has been linked to hypertension, diabetes, and possibly CKD. We hypothesized that kidney donors with LBW may be at increased…2013 American Transplant Congress
Eculizumab in aHUS Pts with Long Disease Duration, with or without Renal Transplant
INTRODUCTION: aHUS is marked by uncontrolled complement activation and TMA. Eculizumab (ecu), approved for aHUS, selectively inhibits terminal complement activation. Ongoing aHUS following renal transplant…2013 American Transplant Congress
Mouse Models That Fully Reproduce Human Acute and Chronic Antibody-Mediated Kidney Transplant Rejection
University of Alberta, Edmonton, Canada
Antibody-mediated rejection (ABMR) is a major cause of late kidney transplant failure. Until now, lack of relevant small animal models of pure antibody-mediated rejection has…2013 American Transplant Congress
Morphologic Correlates of High Resistance during Kidney Preservation by Hypothermic Machine Perfusion
Hypothermic machine perfusion (MP) preservation of kidneys improves outcomes after kidney transplantation in marginal kidneys besides offering prognostic information on graft survival post transplantation. This…2013 American Transplant Congress
Post Transplant Lymphoproliferative Disorders: Clinicopathological Analysis of 54 Cases in a Single Center
Introduction:A post transplant lymphoproliferative disorder (PTLD) is an infrequent but serious complication following solid organ transplantation. The incidence varies and depends on the type of…2013 American Transplant Congress
Heterogeneity in Transcripts Induced in Implantation Biopsies: Distinguishing Preexisting Injury from Acute Phase Response
Human kidney transplants with early acute kidney injury (AKI) express transcripts indicating the injury-repair process (IRRATs). Expression of IRRATs correlated with delayed graft function (DGF)…
