Pancreatic Islet Survival Under Confinement
UMR DIATHEC EA 7294, Centre Européen d'Etude du Diabète, Strasbourg, France.
The main advantage of cell therapy is the possibility to immune-isolate the graft in a device to avoid immune suppressive regimen. In islet transplantation field,…2015 American Transplant Congress
B-Cell Activation in Acute Kidney Injury and Delayed Graft Function
Background:Acute kidney injury (AKI) is a relevant complication after kidney transplantation and also after non-renal solid organ transplantation. Growing evidence points towards an important role…2015 American Transplant Congress
Associations Between Deceased-Donor Urine Biomarkers of Kidney Injury and 6-Month Kidney Transplant Function
TRIBE-AKI Consortium, New Haven, CT.
Assessment of organ quality is integral to allocation, yet existing tools have a limited ability to predict important transplant outcomes. We evaluated whether injury biomarkers,…2015 American Transplant Congress
Long Term Follow Up Reveals Satisfactory Renal Outcome in Pacreas After Kidney Transplantation (PAK)
Objective: PAK offers diabetic ESRD patients' opportunity to avoid or minimize dialysis using living kidney donation, followed by cadaveric pancreas transplantation thereafter to restore euglycemia,…2015 American Transplant Congress
Acute Kidney Injury in the Early Post Kidney Transplant Period: Frequency, Etiology and Significance
Acute kidney injury (AKI) post kidney transplant has not been well described using current diagnostic criteria. The frequency and etiology of AKI in the first…2015 American Transplant Congress
Liver Flushing Using Colloid and Crystalloid Solutions
Abdominal Organ Transplantation, Oregon Health and Science University, Portland.
Background:Preservation solutions such as University of Wisconsin solution and histidine-tryptophan-ketoglutarate solution have been cited as causes of hypotension and adverse donor reactions following reperfusion of…2015 American Transplant Congress
Dual Kidney Transplantation – Utilising Marginal Kidneys
Cardiff Transplant Unit, University Hospital of Wales, Cardiff, United Kingdom.
Background: With the increasing shortage of donor kidneys a constant review of organ quality and utilisation is required. Getting any positive result from a potential…2015 American Transplant Congress
Ischemia Reperfusion Injury in Orthotopic Liver Transplantation Primes the Adaptive Immune Response and Generation of Proinflammatory Cytokines
Background: Transplanted organs are exquisitely susceptible to effects of ischemia/reperfusion injury (IRI), an immune-mediated process that occurs during transplantation and beyond. Recipient and graft outcomes,…2015 American Transplant Congress
Use of Tissue Plasminogen Activator (TPA) in Liver Transplantation from Donation After Cardiac Death (DCD) Donors: A Controlled Randomized Trial
Hepatobiliary and Liver Transplant Surgery, Cleveland Clinic, Cleveland, OH.
To further evaluate the impact of tPA in reduction of ITBS in livers recovered from the DCD donors we conducted a controlled randomized trial. Between…2015 American Transplant Congress
Implications of Living Kidney Donor Histology, Volume and Function on Allograft Outcome
Donor factors are determinants of donor quality and therefore graft function in deceased donation (DD). We hypothesized that analogous to DD, donor factors such as…
