More Than Just Drain Pipes, Pulmonary Lymphatics Play a Pivotal Role in the Development of Bronchiolitis Obliterans Syndrome
*Purpose: Chronic allograft dysfunction (CLAD) remains a major determinant of the generally poor long-term outcome of lung transplantation compared to that of other solid organ…2022 American Transplant Congress
Zfyve21 Activates T Cell Intrinsic, Nlrp3 Inflammasomes to Promote Allograft Vasculopathy
*Purpose: Allograft vasculopathy (AV) is a complication of chronic allograft rejection whose underlying mechanism(s) of etiopathogenesis are poorly defined. We examined the role of ZFYVE21,…2022 American Transplant Congress
Predictive Value of Abnormal Hemodynamic Response to Dobutamine Stress Echocardiography in Liver Transplant Recipients
University of Wisconsin Hospitals and Clinics, Madison, WI
*Purpose: Dobutamine stress echocardiography (DSE) is an effective tool for perioperative cardiac risk stratification in patients without end-stage liver disease (ESLD). However, DSE is frequently…2022 American Transplant Congress
Efficacy of a Multispecialty, Multidisciplinary Strategy to Improve the Level of Awareness and Control of Cardiovascular Risk Factors After Liver Transplantation
Hospital Clinic, Barcelona, Spain
*Purpose: Although liver transplant (LT) recipients are at high cardiovascular risk, the management of cardiovascular risk factors (CVRF) after LT is far from optimal. We…2020 American Transplant Congress
Time for Change: Assessment of Renal Transplant Artery Stenosis with N.A.T.I.V.E. True-F.I.S.P. and N.A.T.I.V.E. G.R.E
*Purpose: Non-contrast MRA can be fraught with artifact and lack of signal both in areas of stenosis as well as normal vessels. Therefore, it is…2020 American Transplant Congress
Long-Term Effect of Kidney Transplantation on Peripheral Arterial Disease
*Purpose: Peripheral arterial disease (PAD) that needs treatment is common and major complication in patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD). Most surgeons have been using…2020 American Transplant Congress
Impact of Pre-Liver Transplant Cardiovascular Disease Risk Assessment Standardization on Resource Utilization and Recipient Selection
*Purpose: Cardiovascular disease (CVD) risk assessment (RA) prior to liver transplantation (LT) is a critical aspect of recipient selection, however data on optimal testing is…2019 American Transplant Congress
More Than Meets the Eye: The Use of Serial Intravascular Ultrasound for Assessment of Cardiac Allograft Vasculopathy after Heart Transplantation
1Stanford University, Palo Alto, CA, 2University of Toronto, Toronto, ON, Canada
*Purpose: Cardiac allograft vasculopathy (CAV) is the “Achilles heel” of long-term survival after heart transplantation. While conventional coronary angiography is recognised as the standard for…2019 American Transplant Congress
AKI and Long-Term Risk for Cardiovascular Events in Patients after Kidney Transplantation
*Purpose: AKI was found to be associated with increased risk of major cardiovascular events (MACE) in the general population. Patients after kidney transplantation are prone…2019 American Transplant Congress
Factors Associated with Cardiovascular Subclinical Target Organ Damage in Liver Transplant Recipients
*Purpose: Liver transplantation (LT) patients are prone to cardiovascular (CV) morbidity, since LT-related factors can add to the burden of classical risk factors. The aim…
