Primary Graft Dysfunction After Pediatric Heart Transplant.
Pediatric Cardiology, Washington University School of Medicine, St. Louis, MO
Background: Primary graft dysfunction (PGD), as defined by ISHLT Consensus Guidelines, has been associated with worse outcomes in adult heart transplant recipients, even in patients…2017 American Transplant Congress
A Mutation of the Erythropoietin Receptor Correlates with Improved Function of Deceased-Donor Renal Transplants.
Erythropoietin (Epo) protects renal tubular cells from ischemia/reperfusion injury in experimental transplantation, suggesting a relevant effect of erythropoietin receptor (EPOR) mediated signalling. Previously 6 mutations…2017 American Transplant Congress
Impact of Early Allograft Dysfunction on Graft and Patient Outcomes After Liver Transplantation.
The First Affiliated Hospital of Sun Yat-sen University, Guangzhou, China
Objective: To evaluate the short-term and long-term impact of early allograft dysfunction (EAD) on graft and patient outcomes after liver transplantation.Background: EAD is one early…2017 American Transplant Congress
Predictive Value of Post Reperfusion TEG in Peri-Operative Outcomes During Liver Transplant.
Transplant Surgery, Hartford Hospital, Hartford, CT
Liver transplantation (LT) is the main treatment for patients with end-stage liver disease. During a liver transplant, persistent coagulations defects and fibrinolysis can be an…2017 American Transplant Congress
Impact of Early Pancreas Graft Failure on Patient and Kidney Graft Survival After Simultaneous Pancreas and Kidney Transplantation (SPK).
SUNY Upstate Medical University, Syracuse, NY
Introduction: In SPK transplants, the major risk factors for poor patient survival are early pancreas and/or kidney graft loss. In this study, we specifically examined…2017 American Transplant Congress
Changes in Urinary Neutrophil Gelatinase Associated Lipocalin Combined with Urine Cytokines and Microalbuminuria as Predictors for Interstitial Fibrosis and Tubular Atrophy in Kidney Transplantation: A Matched-Pair Tissue Cohort Study.
Background: Late graft loss from interstitial fibrosis - tubular atrophy (IF/TA) continues to be the “Achilles' heel” of kidney transplantation (KT). Long-term calcineurin inhibitors (CNIs)…2016 American Transplant Congress
The Oldest and Coldest in Kidney Paired Donation: Experience of the National Kidney Registry.
OBJECTIVES: To evaluate renal allograft efficacy and survivability in elderly donors and prolonged cold ischemia time (CIT).METHODS: 1,402 living donor kidney transplants from 02/2008-06/2015 recorded…2016 American Transplant Congress
Late Outcome Surrogate Score (LOSS) for Kidney Allograft Failure.
Comprehensive Transplant Center, Northwestern University, Chicago, IL.
Background. Early outcomes following kidney transplant have steadily improved. Longer-term outcomes, while not the focus of regulatory oversight, are of vital importance. Clinical trials are…2016 American Transplant Congress
Long-Term Liver Function of Deceased Liver Transplantation Using Hepatitis B Surface Antigen Positive Grafts.
Background: Deceased donors with hepatitis B [HBs Ag(+)] were not recommended to recover the livers for liver transplantation. However, in endemic area of hepatitis B…2016 American Transplant Congress
Markers of Activation of Microvascular Endothelial Cells Predict a Poor Long-Term Graft Outcome in Early Renal Graft Biopsies Displaying Acute Tubular Necrosis.
Acute tubular necrosis (ATN), is a histopathological feature frequently seen in the early post renal transplant biopsies taken from patients with delayed graft function (DGF).…
