Higher Mortality Among Candidates Who Refuse to Accept DCD Kidney Offers.
DCD kidneys provide survival benefit but continue to be declined and discarded at elevated rates. We aimed to characterize the potential benefit or harm associated…2017 American Transplant Congress
Estimating Donor Organ Quality with Baseline Histology and Kidney Donor Risk Index for Predicting Graft Outcomes in Deceased Donor Kidney Transplantation.
Background: Donor organ quality is a key determinant of graft outcomes in deceased donor kidney transplantation (DDKT). The effect of baseline histology at the time…2017 American Transplant Congress
Kidney Re-Transplantation (KRTx) from Donation After Cardiocirculatory Death (DCD)-Standard Criteria Donors (SCD).
Transplant, Wake Forest Baptist Medical Center, Winston Salem, NC
Donation after cardiac death (DCD) donor kidneys increase the organ pool but use in kidney retransplantation (KRTx) has been questioned due to higher rates of…2017 American Transplant Congress
Serva NB1 versus Vitacyte Collagenase: Comparable Human Islet Isolation Outcomes Using DCD Donor Pancreas in China.
Transplant Center, Tianjin First Center Hospital, Tianjin, China
Objective This study was designed to retrospectively compare the effect of Serva NB1 collagenase between Vitacyte collagenase on islet isolation of DCD pancreas in China.…2017 American Transplant Congress
CD47 Blockade Reduces Ischemia/Reperfusion Injury in Donation After Cardiac Death Rat Kidney Transplantation.
Purpose: We evaluated the potential effects of antibody-mediated CD47 blockade to modulate vascular endothelial nitric oxide activity and reduce ischemia reperfusion injury in a rat…2017 American Transplant Congress
Higher Mortality Among Candidates Who Refused Increased-Infectious Risk Kidney Offers.
Increased infectious risk donors (IRD) are younger and healthier than most deceased donors, but IRD kidneys are discarded at higher rates despite potential benefit to…2017 American Transplant Congress
Steatotic Human Livers Show Inferior Function Compared to Non-Steatotic Livers During Ex-Situ Viability Assessment by Oxygenated Machine Perfusion.
Fatty livers are frequently declined for transplantation due to high risk of primary non-function. Ex-situ oxygenated machine perfusion (MP) is superior to static cold storage…2017 American Transplant Congress
Evaluation of Outcomes in Renal Transplantation Using Machine Perfusion for the Preservation of Kidneys from Expanded Criteria Donor.
Agence de la Biomedecine, Saint Denis La Plaine, France
Introduction:The shortage of kidney grafts led to retrieve organs from old donors with one or more co-morbidities, considered as “expanded criteria donors” (ECD). In France,…2017 American Transplant Congress
Proteins in Preservation Fluid Predict Delayed Graft Function of Kidneys from Donors After Circulatory Death.
Background and objectivesKidney transplantation is the preferred treatment for end-stage kidney disease, and donor kidney shortage urges proper donor-recipient matching. Zero-hour biopsies provide predictive value…2017 American Transplant Congress
Donor Warm Ischemic Time >80min Is an Important Predictor of Kidney Graft Survival from Donors After Cardiac Death.
We analyzed UNOS data to determine how donor warm ischemic time (WIT), donor BMI, donor hypertension (dHTN), cold ischemic time (CIT), and vasopressin use in…
