Liver Transplantation Using Pediatric versus Adult Donor Grafts in Adult Recipients
Organ Transplant Center, Sun Yat-sen University, Guangzhou, Guangdong, China.
Background and Aim: The reported outcomes of adult liver transplantation using pediatric allografts are largely controversial based on single center studies. We aimed to compare…2018 American Transplant Congress
Predictors of Graft Survival amongst Recipients of Liver Allografts with Prolonged Cold Ischemic Time (CIT)
Background: CIT is an independent risk factor for worse outcomes in liver transplantation (LT). Factors contributing to improved graft survival in organs with CIT ≥12…2018 American Transplant Congress
Impact of Overseas Organ Transplantation on Outcome of Kidney Transplant Patients
Background.Kidney transplantation is an effective treatment option for patients with end stage renal disease (ESRD). Although there is a trend to decrease in overseas transplantation…2018 American Transplant Congress
Cognitive Impairment and Graft Loss in Kidney Transplant Recipients
1JHU, Baltimore; 2University of Michigan, Ann Arbor.
Cognitive impairment is common in end-stage renal disease patients and impedes adherence to complex treatment regimens. Given the complexities of post-transplant immunosuppression, we hypothesized that…2018 American Transplant Congress
Urinary C5b-9 is an Independent Predictor of Graft Failure in Renal Transplant Recipients
Department of Nephrology, University Medical Centre Groningen, Groningen, Netherlands.
IntroductionChronic antibody-mediated rejection is thought to be the main cause of late kidney-allograft loss, involving donor-specific antibody–mediated activation of the complement system. Activation of filtered…2018 American Transplant Congress
Incidence Trends among Deceased Liver Transplant Recipients in the United States, 2011-2016: A Propensity Score-Matched Study
Transplant Institute, Henry Ford Hospital, Detroit, MI.
BackgroundDonation after cardiac death (DCD) donor liver graft is a known risk factor for graft failure secondary to primary non-function (PNF) and/or diffuse cholangiopathy (DC).…2018 American Transplant Congress
Graft Failure in Recurrent IgA Nephropathy Following Living Kidney Transplantation: Predictive Factors Analysis of 102 Biopsies
Aim To investigate the predictive factors related to graft failure in recurrentIgA nephropathy (IgAN) following living kidney transplantation. Methods We identified a series of 102…2018 American Transplant Congress
Urine Pellet Podocyte mRNAs Correlate Closely with Late Kidney Allograft Loss-of-Function
1Univ Michigan, Ann Arbor; 2Univ Kansas, Kansas City.
10-year surveillance biopsy studies (Nankivell,2003 & Stegall,2017) and podometric studies are compatible with progressive glomerulosclerosis (GS) contributing to long-term allograft loss-of-function.Thus one would expect to…2018 American Transplant Congress
Genome Wide Non-HLA Alloimmunity Contributes to Graft Loss after Kidney Transplantation
BackgroundChronic rejection is the main cause of renal transplant loss after the first year and has mostly been attributed to alloimmune responses against human leukocyte…2018 American Transplant Congress
Transplant Outcomes in Female African American Recipients
We are aware of the multifactorial healthcare disparity affecting African American (AA) population with regards to renal transplantation. Little is known about AA female renal…
