Impact of Body Mass Index on Methodsof Assessing Glomerular Filtration Rate in Living Kidney Donors
*Purpose: The current Organ Procurement and Transplantation Network (OPTN) policy on living kidney donors (LKD) require that all LKD candidates have measured glomerular filtration rate…2020 American Transplant Congress
Elucidating the Genetic Background of End Stage Renal Disease of Unknown Aetiology in Patients Listed for Kidney Transplantation
*Purpose: The prevalence of end stage renal disease (ESRD) of unknown aetiology in adult patients accounts for almost 20% of all dialysis patients in Europe.…2020 American Transplant Congress
Glomerular Filtration Rate Based on Cystatin C Provides the Best Prediction of Cardiovascular Events and Mortality Compared to Measured GFR and Creatinine Based GFR in Kidney Transplant Recipients
1Mayo Clinic, Scottsdale, AZ, 2Mayo Clinic, Rochester, MN
*Purpose: GFR estimated by cystatin C (CysC) is a better predictor of cardiovascular (CV) events and mortality compared to eGFR by creatinine (Cr) in native…2020 American Transplant Congress
Pre-Donation CKD-EPI GFR is Superior to Iothalamate Split Scan Results in Predicting 6-Month Post-Nephrectomy Donor Kidney Function
General Surgery, University of Michigan, Ann Arbor, MI
*Purpose: Predicting post-donation GFR remains a challenge during living kidney donor (LKD) evaluation. Iothalamate split scans have been employed during LKD evaluation to document measured…2020 American Transplant Congress

The Effects of DGF after Deceased Donor Renal Transplantation Differ by KDPI
*Purpose: We analyzed the effects of DGF on: (1) graft survival, (2) patient survival and (3) eGFR of adult recipients of deceased donor kidney transplants…2020 American Transplant Congress
A Multicenter, Randomized, Controlled Trial to Steer Immunosuppressive Therapy by Virus-Specific T Cells after Pediatric Kidney Transplantation (IVIST-Trial)
*Purpose: Pharmakokinetic monitoring of immunosuppressants alone is insufficient to estimate the individual intensity of immunosuppression after kidney transplantation (Tx). Virus-specific T cells (Tvis) correlate with…2020 American Transplant Congress
Utilization of Hepatitis C Positive Organs in Kidney Transplantation
Ochsner Medical Center, New Orleans, LA
