Causes of Poor Renal Function of Kidney Transplants from Uncontrolled Donation After Cardiac Death Donors (UDCDD)
Nephrology, Hospital 12 de Octubre, Madrid, Spain.
INTRODUCTION: Kidneys grafts from UDCDD have higher ischemia injury. It develops in higher primary non function, lower graft survival and worst renal function compared to…2015 American Transplant Congress
Prospective Measurement of Plasma Neutrophil Gelatinase-Associated Lipoprotein in Living Kidney Donors
Introduction: Neutrophil gelatinase-associated lipocalin (NGAL) is a biomarker for acute kidney injury. This study was conducted to determine the clinical implications of perioperative plasma NGAL…2015 American Transplant Congress
Effect of Distinct Immunosuppressive Protocols On the Profile of Cytokines Expression in Renal Transplant Recipients of Extended Criteria Donor Kidneys
Background: Transplant recipients (RTx) of kidneys classified as extended criteria (ECD) seems to have worst outcomes when compared with RTx of standard kidneys (SCD) and…2015 American Transplant Congress
Ischemic Cholangiopathy Following Liver Transplantation from Donation After Circulatory Death Donors: Role of Tissue Plasminogen Activator Flush
Background: Formation of microthrombi within the peribiliary arterial plexus causing necrosis of biliary epithelium may be responsible for ischemic cholangiopathy (IC) after donation after circulatory…2015 American Transplant Congress
"In-House" Controlled Oxygenated Rewarming After Initial Static Cold Storage: First Clinical Application in Marginal Donor Livers
IntroductionControlled oxygenated rewarming of cold stored livers by machine perfusion demonstrated a strong protective effect in preclinical studies. Here we report on the first clinical…2015 American Transplant Congress
Delivery of Heme Oxygenase-1-Cell Penetrating Peptide (HO-1-CPP) Into Hepatocytes, Kupffer and Islet Cells in In Vitro and Ex Vivo Models of Cold Ischemia
In an attempt to increase the number of donor organs available to transplantation extended criteria donor (ECD) organs are more frequently considered. Unfortunately, ECD organs…2015 American Transplant Congress
Evaluation of Geographically Distant Living Kidney Donors: A Barrier to Living Donation?
Renal & Pancreas Transplant Division, Saint Barnabas Medical Center, Livingston, NJ.
Introduction: Living kidney donors often live far from the recovering transplant center where they donate. We sought to determine (1) characteristics of these geographically distant,…2015 American Transplant Congress
Long-Term Outcomes of Transplantation Using Kidneys from Expanded Criteria Donors
BackgroundSince the initial definition of ECD established in 2002, their use worldwide has evolved unequally, resulting in a high discard rate. A better understanding of…2015 American Transplant Congress
Kidneys from Living Donors With High Body Mass Index Do Not Have Inferior Outcomes
Imperial College Kidney and Transplant Centre, Hammersmith Hospital, London, United Kingdom.
The disparity between donor kidney availability and demand has increased utilization of kidneys from marginal living donors. Data regarding outcome of transplantation from living donors…2015 American Transplant Congress
Correlation Between Level of Biomarkers Measured in Perfusate of Machine-Preserved ECD/DCD Kidneys and Post-Transplant Graft Function
Background:DCD and ECD kidneys are associated with higher risk of failure compare to SCD kidneys. Therefore we see increasing need to identify sensitive tool to…
