The Polymer Pro-Drug APP-103 Mitigates I/R Injury and Improves Graft Function in a Pre-Clinical Renal Transplant Model.
Purpose: Ischemia-reperfusion injury (IRI) is the strongest non-HLA factor that augments allogenicity of transplanted organs. Damage subsequent to IRI is critically linked to an abundance…2017 American Transplant Congress
Improved Outcomes After Liver Transplantation from Controlled DCD Donors with Normothermic Regional Perfusion.
Transplant Unit, Royal Infirmary of Edinburgh, Edinburgh, United Kingdom
Background: Normothermic regional perfusion (NRP) is currently explored as a method to recover organs from Maastricht category I-III Donors after circulatory death (DCD). This study…2017 American Transplant Congress
Laparoscopic Sleeve Gastrectomy Improves Renal Transplant Candidacy and Posttransplant Outcomes in Morbidly Obese Patients.
Surgery, University of Cincinnati, Cincinnati, OH
BACKGROUND: Morbid obesity remains a barrier to kidney transplantation (KT) and is associated with increased delayed graft function (DGF), graft loss, and wound complications. Laparoscopic…2017 American Transplant Congress
Impact of STEEN vs Gelofusine as Perfusate During Normothermic Ex Vivo liver Perfusion on Outcome of Pig Liver Transplantation.
Multiorgan Transplant Program, Toronto General Hospital, Toronto, ON, Canada
European and North American clinical trials have used two different perfusate solutions for normothermic ex vivo liver perfusion (NEVLP): Gelofusine (bovine derived gelatin-based solution) and…2017 American Transplant Congress
Kidney Insertion Through Vagina and Robotic Assisted Laparoscopic Kidney Transplantation: A Pilot Study.
Minimally invasive kidney transplantation is emerging modality of treatment; both laparoscopic and robotic assisted laparoscopic kidney transplantation are technically feasible and safe. In female recipients,…2017 American Transplant Congress
Everolimus Does Not Increase Risk of Delayed Graft Function or Prolong Duration of Dialysis in Renal Transplantation.
US92 (NCT01025817) is a phase III, 12 month, open-label, randomized study comparing everolimus (EVR) plus low-dose tacrolimus (LTac) vs. mycophenolate mofetil (MMF) with standard-dose tacrolimus…2017 American Transplant Congress
Macrophage Specific Deletion of RhoA Inhibits Fractalkine Signaling and Abrogates Chronic Rejection of Cardiac Allograft.
Surgery, Houston Methodist Hospital and Research Institute, Houston
Objective. Chronic rejection of transplanted organs remains unresolved issue in organ transplantation. The chronic rejection is the most common cause of graft loss within 10…2017 American Transplant Congress
Correlation of Donor Clinical and Histopathological Characteristics with Graft Function in Kidney Transplant Recipients.
Background: There is lack of consensus in the perceived accuracy of frozen biopsy interpretation. Interobserver variability in assessment of pre-implantation biopsies limits its value to…2017 American Transplant Congress
Normothermic Ex-Vivo Kidney Perfusion Improves Function of Extreme Marginal Renal Grafts Subjected to Prolonged Ischemia.
Background: Normothermic ex-vivo kidney perfusion (NEVKP) is an emerging technique for renal graft preservation. We investigated whether NEVKP could promote improved marginal graft function compared…2017 American Transplant Congress
Kidney Re-Transplantation (KRTx) from Donation After Cardiocirculatory Death (DCD)-Standard Criteria Donors (SCD).
Transplant, Wake Forest Baptist Medical Center, Winston Salem, NC
Donation after cardiac death (DCD) donor kidneys increase the organ pool but use in kidney retransplantation (KRTx) has been questioned due to higher rates of…
