Assessment of Hospital Readmissions After Mechanical Circulatory Support
Cedars-Sinai Heart Institute, Los Angeles, CA.
Purpose: Hospital readmission is viewed as one of the benchmarks for success following mechanical circulatory support (MCS) placement. It is not clear whether there is…2015 American Transplant Congress
Donors at Age Extremes for Simultaneous Pancreas-Kidney Transplant (SPKT)
Background:Shortage of optimal pancreatic donors stimulates a search for options to expand the donor pool. Extreme age donors ( <13 yrs or > 50 yrs…2015 American Transplant Congress
The Potential of E-Health to Improve Adherence: Exploring the Patients' View
Introduction. Transplant outcomes can be negatively influenced by medication nonadherence. Therefore, there is a need for effective interventions to improve adherence. In recent years due…2015 American Transplant Congress
Investigating Role of Early VTE Chemoprophylaxis in Kidney Transplant
Objective: Our objective was to determine whether the rate of venothromboembolic events (VTE) varied with early versus delayed prophylaxis administration. Associated bleeding complications were also…2015 American Transplant Congress
Biomarker for Calcineurin Inhibitors Nephrotoxicity in Solid Organ Transplantation: Validation of a Urine Gene Expression Panel
Background: We previously described a gene expression signature as biomarker of calcineurin inhibitor nephrotoxicity (CNIT) post renal transplantation. Herein, we aimed to validate the same…2015 American Transplant Congress
Donor Serum and Urine Proteomic Signatures Differentiate Between Immediate and Delayed Graft Function in Kidney Transplantation
IntroductionDespite the persistent shortage of donor organs, paradoxically, many organs obtained from older higher risk donors are deemed unsuitable for transplantation and discarded. The ability…2015 American Transplant Congress
Impact of Alloreactivity On Intra-Graft T Cell Homeostasis Following Small Bowel Transplantation
Columbia University Medical Center, New York.
The impact of alloreactivity on the turnover rate, phenotype and repertoire of gut-resident lymphoid cells populating human intestinal allografts is unknown. We prospectively analyzed the…2015 American Transplant Congress
Bidirectional Regulation and IL35 Surface Expression By Treg Cells
Surgery, University of Wisconsin, Madison, WI.
Background: Pre-transplant regulation on the donor side(toward the recipient), as well as the recipient side(toward the donor) promotes long-term graft survival of a kidney allo-graft…2015 American Transplant Congress
T-bet Directs nTreg Homing Into Draining Lymph Nodes by Regulation of Specific Migration and Adhesion Receptors
University of Maryland, Baltimore.
Background: The transcription factor T-bet endows Treg with the functional and migratory properties to suppress Th1 inflammation. Previously, we showed that nTreg homing into draining…2015 American Transplant Congress
Characterization of Peripheral Blood T and B Cells of Sensitized Kidney Transplant Recipients With Long Term Stable Graft Function
We examined the phenotype of T and B cells of peripheral blood of sensitized kidney transplant recipients with stable graft function (GFR > 29mL/min) enrolled…
