Recovery of eGFR in Both Donors and Recipients After Living Donor Kidney Transplantation.
MedStar Georgetown Transplant Institute, Washington, DC.
Purpose: LD kidney donation provides a much needed resource for patients with end stage renal disease. Providing adequate renal mass to the recipient (R) is…2016 American Transplant Congress
Associations of Perfusate Biomarkers and Pump Parameters with Delayed Graft Function and Deceased-Donor Kidney Allograft Function.
Hypothermic machine perfusion (HMP) is increasingly used in deceased-donor kidney transplantation, but controversy exists regarding the value of perfusion biomarkers and pump parameters for assessing…2016 American Transplant Congress

Donor Interstitial Fibrosis and Tubular Atrophy (IFTA) Are Not Independent Risk Factors for a Lower GFR at One Year.
BackgroundDonor age is a determinant of allograft outcome after deceased donor kidney transplant (DDTx). Our aim was to determine if chronic changes on a reperfusion…2016 American Transplant Congress
5-Year Follow-Up After Live Donor Nephrectomy – A Prospective Cohort Study.
BackgroundRecently some studies have reported less favorable results after live kidney donation. We investigated therefore which donors will possibly be at risk for chronic kidney…2016 American Transplant Congress
Early Tacrolimus Exposure in Patients Treated De Novo with Once-Daily Tacrolimus After Liver Transplantation: Relationship with Acute Rejection and Long-Term Outcome.
Liver Transplantation Unit, Cruces University Hospital, Bilbao, Vizcaya, Spain.
AIM: The aim of our study was to define the possible influence of early tacrolimus exposure on long-term outcomes in patients treated with de novo…2015 American Transplant Congress
Longitudinal eGFR Modelling to Understand Rates of eGFR Decline in Renal Transplantation in the United Kingdom
Background: The rate of decline in eGFR (slope) has been independently associated with a higher risk of cardiovascular events and all cause mortality in kidney…2015 American Transplant Congress
Acute Kidney Injury and Outcome After Cardiac Transplantation
Background:Chronic kidney disease (CKD) is a frequently seen complication after cardiac transplantation and is partly explained by the prolonged use of calcineurin inhibitors. However, few…2015 American Transplant Congress
MDRD4 Equation Is Better Than CKD-EPI, Cockroft-Gault and Nankivell Equations to Estimate Glomerular Filtration Rate in Renal Transplantation
To evaluate which estimated GFR (eGFR) equation is the most appropriate to in kidney transplanted (KTx) recipients, we obtained data from all plasma EDTA-Cr51 clearances…2015 American Transplant Congress
100 Protocol Renal Allograft Biopsies at 10 Years: First Look at the Tacrolimus Era
This study examined late renal allograft injury in the Tacrolimus era in 10-yr protocol biopsies (Bx).Methods One hundred 10-yr protocol allograft bx were assessed using…
