Incidence of Post Transplant BKV Infection Using Two Different Cut-Offs for BKV IgG Seropositivity
Background: The study evaluated relationship of pre transplant BKV specific donor/recipient serostatus to post-transplant BKV infection, using two different cut-offs to define seropositivity.Methods: 240 adult…2013 American Transplant Congress
Effect of Gender on Transplant Outcomes: A Meta-Analysis, The
Organ Transplant Center, the First Affiliated Hospital of Sun Yat-sen University, Guangzhou, China
Purpose: Although the effects of donor-recipient gender matching on transplant outcomes have been discussed for long, no widely-accepted consensus has been reached. We conducted a…2013 American Transplant Congress
Kidney Transplantation with Portal Venous Drainage Via a Superior Mesenteric Venous Tributory in a Patient with Complete IVC and Bilateral Iliac Venous Thrombosis
INTRODUCTION: Complete inferior vena caval occlusion (IVC) with complete bilateral iliac vein (BIV) occulusion is a rare complication in patients with clotting diatheses. We present…2013 American Transplant Congress
Rapid Flow-Cytometric Detection of Cell-Mediated Alloreactivity in Transplant Candidates and Healthy Controls
Detailed knowledge on the preformed donor-specific T cell repertoire in transplant recipients prior to transplantation would allow guidance on individualized immunosuppressive drug treatment early after…2013 American Transplant Congress
U.S. Experience in ABO Incompatible Pediatric Heart Transplantation, The
Background. On 11/22/10, an ABO-incompatible (ABO-i) pediatric (ped) heart (HR) policy was implemented. This policy allows Status 1A/1B ped candidates <2 yrs at listing who…2013 American Transplant Congress
Predictors of Post-Transplant Cardiac Dysfunction in Liver Transplant Recipients
Gastroenterology and Hepatology, Henry Ford Medical Center, Detroit, MI
BackgroundHeart failure (HF) after liver transplantation (LT) is poorly understood. Small, retrospective studies have analyzed new onset systolic HF after LT, but rates are variable…2013 American Transplant Congress
Early Rehospitalization after Kidney Transplantation: Predictors and Prognosis
University of Pennsylvania, Philadelphia, PA
Early rehospitalization occurs commonly after kidney transplantation (KT). Rehospitalization may identify patients at risk for future adverse outcomes. Methods: We performed a retrospective cohort study…2013 American Transplant Congress
Dynamic Dual Role of IL-2 Signaling in the Two-Step Differentiation Process of Adaptive Regulatory T Cells, A
Background. Regulatory T (Treg) cells are with potential to induce transplant tolerance. However, the molecular mechanism of the extrathymic generation of adaptive CD4+Foxp3+ regulatory T…2013 American Transplant Congress
Immune, Inflammatory and Apoptosis Gene Expression in Human Formalin-Fixed Paraffin-Embedded (FFPE) Kidney Biopsies Correlate with Banff Scored Acute Rejection and Reveals Heterogeneous Genetic Subtypes Bearing Common Histological Patterns
Surgery, University of Miami, Miami, FL; Medicine, University of Miami, Miami, FL
The lack of appropriate in situ biomarkers available to detect acute rejection makes it difficult to optimize anti-rejection therapies for heterogeneous forms of alloreactive processes…2013 American Transplant Congress
Mesenchymal Stem Cells Control Allo-Reactive CD28- T Cells That Are Unaffected by Belatacept Treatment
Introduction: CD28/B7 co-stimulation blockade with belatacept is used to prevent allo-reactivity in kidney transplant patients. Cells that lose CD28 during differentiation are not sufficiently controlled…
