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…2022 American Transplant Congress
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,…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
Positron Emission Tomography (PET-CT) Global Coronary Flow Reserve (CFR) Stratifies Cardiovascular Risk among Renal Transplant (RTx) Candidates
Intermountain Healthcare, Murray, UT
*Purpose: Chronic kidney disease (CKD) and diabetes (DM) are both associated with increased risk of coronary artery disease and Major Adverse Cardiovascular Events (MACE). The…2019 American Transplant Congress
Immunosuppression after Organ Transplantation Does Not Enhance Patency of Cold-Stored Vein Allografts for Critical Limb Ischemia -Single Centre Experience
*Purpose: Sub-inguinal bypass with cold-stored saphenous vein allograft is a last option treatment for extensive peripheral arterial occlusive disease with absent autologous vein. The aim…2019 American Transplant Congress
The Outcomes of Living Donor Kidney Transplantation in Donors or Recipients with Donors’ Renal Arteriosclerotic Lesions on Preoperative Computed Tomography
*Purpose: Living donor kidney transplantation is being increasingly performed with elderly donors. Such elderly donors often have arteriosclerotic lesions (AS) (Figure 1). Whether the outcomes…
