Social Determinants as Indicators for Medication Adherence and Graft Function in Pediatric Kidney Transplant Recipients
Oregon Health & Science Univ, Portland, OR
*Purpose: To examine the association of social determinants of health (SDoH), the conditions in which people are born and live, with medication adherence and graft…2020 American Transplant Congress
Determining Prognostic Factors of Longitudinal Estimated Glomerular Filtration Rate Curves Using Machine Learning Techniques
TRANSFORM Study Group, Basel, Switzerland
*Purpose: Various factors related to donors and recipients are integrally associated with post-transplant outcomes. Using machine learning (ML) techniques, we determine the possible prognostic factors…2020 American Transplant Congress
Comparison of Reduced-Dose and Labeled-Dose Belatacept Conversion with Immediate or Early Tacrolimus Withdrawal in Kidney Transplant Recipients without Maintenance Corticosteroids
1U Cincinnati, Cincinnati, OH, 2The Christ Hospital, Cincinnati, OH
*Purpose: A primary reason for conversion from tacrolimus (TAC) to belatacept (BELA) is to avoid nephrotoxicity. Previous published experiences with BELA-conversion regimens have shown increased…2020 American Transplant Congress
Development of Self-Limited Low-Level BK Viremia/Viruria Suggests Ideal Immunosuppression to Suppress T-Cell and Antibody-Mediated Rejection and to Preserve Kidney Allograft Function
University Hospital Zurich, Zurich, Switzerland
*Purpose: Polyomavirus BK (BKV) has been suggested as a surrogate marker of overimmunosuppression. Due to recent advances in monitoring strategies and pre-emptive therapy, progression to…2020 American Transplant Congress
The Evolution of Renal Graft Failure Risk: The Power of the Proximal
1Angion Biomedica, San Francisco, CA, 2Columbia University Medical Center, New York, NY
*Purpose: Our goal was to examine the association of eGFR in the first year on long term outcomes following kidney transplant.*Methods: The sample included kidney…2020 American Transplant Congress
Characterization of an Integrative Prognostic Score for US Patients Taken from the DART Study
*Purpose: iBox is a validated cloud-based software as a service (SaaS) algorithm that provides a predictive analysis of the post-transplant patient, quantifying the risk of…2020 American Transplant Congress
Successful Transplantation Outcomes Utilizing Deceased Donorswith Acute Kidney Injury
Kidney and Kidney/Pancreas Transplant, Miami Transplant Institute, Miami, FL
*Purpose: Kidneys from deceased donors with acute kidney injury (AKI) are discarded at a higher rate than those without AKI, exacerbating the organ shortage crisis.…2020 American Transplant Congress
Thymoglobulin (ATG) Induction vs. Campath vs. Simulect in DCD Kidneys in UK; Induction Regimes Play a Role after All
*Purpose: Controlled DCD kidneys have increased dramatically in UK. They suffer from a higher rate of DGF and, often in UK, come from older donors…2020 American Transplant Congress
High Estimated Glomerular Filtration Rate at the First Year after Kidney Transplantation is Associated with Worse Long-Term Graft Survival in Kidney Recipient
*Purpose: High estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) as well as low eGFR is associated with cardiovascular morbidity and mortality. The transplanted kidney in the recipient…2020 American Transplant Congress
Trajectories of Glomerular Filtration Rate and Progression to End Stage Renal Disease after Kidney Transplantation
*Purpose: Although the current gold standard of monitoring kidney transplant function relies on glomerular filtration rate (GFR) assessment, little is known about GFR trajectories after…
