Probability, Risk Factors, and Long-Term Outcomes of Biliary Complications After Hepatic Artery Thrombosis in Adult Liver Transplant Recipients: 20 Years Experience from a Single Center.
General Surgery, Cleveland Clinic, Cleveland, OH.
Hepatic artery thrombosis (HAT) after liver transplantation (LT) is a devastating complication associated with ischemic biliary cholangiopathy (IBC) that can occur even after successful revascularization.…2016 American Transplant Congress
Beyond the Bones – The Association Between Vitamin D, Graft Outcomes and Vascular Disease.
1UPMC, Pittsburgh; 2University of Leeds, Leeds, United Kingdom.
Background: Vitamin D deficiency in KTRs is an emerging theme. The purported associations between Vitamin D deficiency and various metabolic, cardiovascular and non-metabolic adverse events…2016 American Transplant Congress
Early Onset Hyperuricemia Is a Prognostic Marker for Kidney Allograft Dysfunction.
Aim: It is not certain whether hyperuricemia is a true risk factor of kidney allograft failure. We investigated the association of hyperuricemia and graft outcome.Methods:…2016 American Transplant Congress
Ex-Vivo Normothermic Perfusion for Assessment of High Risk Deceased Donor Kidneys for Transplantation.
Surgery, University of California-Davis, Sacramento, CA.
Despite the organ shortage, many procured deceased donor kidneys are deemed too high risk for failure and discarded. Ex-vivo normothermic perfusion (EVNP) may be useful…2016 American Transplant Congress
Serum Bicarbonate and Long-Term Outcomes in Kidney Transplant Recipients.
Background: Metabolic acidosis indicated by low serum bicarbonate (TCO2) level has been known as a risk factor for mortality and progressive renal dysfunction in patients…2016 American Transplant Congress
Association of Pre-Transplant Midodrine Use and Complications After Kidney Transplantation.
Background: Midodrine is increasingly prescribed to decrease the severity and complications of hypotension in dialysis patients. The impacts of midodrine use before kidney transplantation on…2016 American Transplant Congress
Fluctuation of Renal Function During the First Year Is Associated with Negative Impact on Long-Term Kidney Graft Survival: A Retrospective, Propensity Score-Matched Study.
Background: Post-transplant renal function in the first year has been reported to predict long-term renal graft survival. The present study examined whether the fluctuation of…2016 American Transplant Congress
Risk Stratification for Optimized Utilization of Deceased Donor Kidneys with Acute Kidney Injury by KDIGO Criteria.
BackgroundDeceased donor kidneys with acute kidney injury (AKI) raise fear of poor graft outcomes to the transplant clinicians and consequently are often discarded. However, the…2016 American Transplant Congress
Donor-Derived Toll-Like Receptor-Dependent Intravascular Monocytes Cause Primary Lung Graft Dysfunction.
Northwestern University, Chicago, IL.
Purpose: Neutrophils mediate primary lung allograft dysfunction (PGD), the predominant cause of early graft loss following lung transplant. The mechanisms of neutrophil infiltration remain incompletely…2016 American Transplant Congress
Impact of Delayed Graft Function Varies by Demographic and Clinical Characteristics in Deceased Donor Kidney Transplantation.
Single-center studies have suggested potential differences in the impact of DGF by recipients' biological susceptibility, quality of allograft, and immune compatibility. The goal of this…
