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…2019 American Transplant Congress
Long Term Renal Function Following Islet Transplantation in the Clinical Islet Transplantation Consortium
*Purpose: Islet transplantation (IsletTp) is safe and effective treatment of Type 1 diabetes complicated by severe hypoglycemia (Diabetes Care 2016, 39:1230). But the requirement for…2019 American Transplant Congress
Mathematical Model of Post-Transplant Serum Creatinine
*Purpose: Commonly used equations calculating eGFR are not applicable when serum creatinine (Scr) is rapidly changing such as the post-transplant period. The purpose of this…2019 American Transplant Congress
Rapid Detection of Kidney Transplant Injury by Quantifying Donor-Derived Cell-Free Deoxyribonucleic Acid via Massively Multiplex Polymerase Chain Reaction
1University of California San Francisco, San Francisco, CA, 2Natera Inc., San Carlos, CA
*Purpose: Plasma donor-derived cell-free DNA (dd-cfDNA) is a proven marker for allograft rejection in patients with kidney transplant (KT). Our goal was to assess performance…2019 American Transplant Congress
Comparison Of Estimating Glomerular Filtration Equations In Living Kidney Donor Candidates Prior To Donation
*Purpose: Serum creatinine-based estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) models have been shown to over- or underestimate measured iohexol GFR (mGFR), but it is unclear if…2019 American Transplant Congress
The Combination of 3-Month Estimated Glomerular Filtration Rate and Proteinuria is a Valuable Tool for Evaluating Long-Term Kidney Graft Survival
*Purpose: Estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) measured at 1 year is the usual outcome used to predict the long-term graft survival in the field of…2019 American Transplant Congress
Does Proton Pump Inhibitor Use Affect Renal Function in Kidney Transplant Recipients?
*Purpose: Recently, proton pump inhibitor (PPI) intake has been linked to acute kidney injury and chronic kidney disease. In the setting of renal transplantation, it…
