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
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
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
The Impact of Preoperative Glucose Intolerance and Hypertension on the Living Kidney Donors
*Purpose: Recently the mortality of living kidney donors was demonstrated to be significantly worse than that of healthy general population. However, the impact of preoperative…2019 American Transplant Congress
Prevention of Ischemia Reperfusion Injury (IRI) & ABMR in HLA Sensitized Patients Treated with C1 Esterase Inhibitor (C1INH): Long-Term Follow Up
Cedars Sinai Medical Ctr, Los Angeles, CA
*Purpose: Delayed graft function (DGF) after kidney transplantation is a consequence of IRI/DGF. IRI/DGF requires intense medical management, is costly and predisposes to risk for…2019 American Transplant Congress
Induction with Thymoglobulin in DCD Kidneys. Dose Effect and Predictors of Outcome
Cardiff Transplant Unit, University Hospital of Wales, Cardiff, United Kingdom

*Purpose: Morbid obesity is a barrier to kidney transplantation in patients with end-stage renal disease (ESRD) and is associated with progression of chronic kidney disease…2019 American Transplant Congress
Kidney Volumes in Healthy Donors – Does Size Really Matter?
*Purpose: To assess the relationship between craniocaudal renal diameters and renal volumes, as well as the frequency of appropriate renal selection for transplant using conventional…2019 American Transplant Congress
The Use of dd-cfDNA as a Predictive Tool for Outcome Decreased Kidney Function
*Purpose: A decline in estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) during the first 12 months following kidney transplantation is associated with poor outcome and increased graft…2019 American Transplant Congress
Gender Disparity: Do Female Donors Suffer from Living Kidney Donation?
*Purpose: Transplantation and optional living donation is the therapy of choice in end-stage renal disease. Due to the increase of living kidney donoration (LD), the…
