Room for Optimism; Improvement in Long-Term Patient and Graft Survival of Kidney Transplants in the United States over the past Three Decades
Division of Abdominal Transplantation, Baylor College of Medicine, Houston, TX
*Purpose: Previous studies indicated that the short-term (1 year) allograft survival of kidney transplants has improved significantly over the years. However, less is known about…2019 American Transplant Congress
B Cell-Specific IRE1a Deficiency Protects Renal Allografts from Rejection via Inhibition of Donor-Specific Antibodies and Induction of B Regulatory Cells
*Purpose: Despite the progress in immunosuppressive regimens, antibody-mediated rejection remains a major contributor to renal allograft loss in recipients with donor-specific antibodies (DSA). IRE1a, an…2019 American Transplant Congress
High Fibre Diet Prevents Transplant-Associated Dysbiosis and Prevents Kidney Allograft Rejection
*Purpose: To investigate the impact of high fibre (HF) diet or dietary supplementation with the short chain fatty acid (SCFA) sodium acetate (SA) on kidney…2019 American Transplant Congress
Aorto-Iliac Calcification is a Risk Factor for Inferior Patient and Graft Survival in Kidney Transplant Recipients; A Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis
HPB/Transplant surgery, Erasmus Medical Center, Rotterdam, Netherlands
*Purpose: While the incidence of transplanting a kidney onto atherosclerotic iliac arteries is becoming more common, little is known about the clinical outcome. We performed…2019 American Transplant Congress
Outcomes of ABO Incompatible Transplant on Steroid Free Immunosuppression
*Purpose: ABO incompatible (ABOi) kidney transplant (KTx) was introduced to expand donor organ pool. However it is also an immunologically high-risk procedure requiring pre-transplant antibody…2019 American Transplant Congress
Donor, Recipient Indices and Frailty Predict Outcomes after Heart-Kidney Transplantation

Long-Term Outcomes and Safety of Living Kidney Transplantation from Older Donors
*Purpose: The shortage of deceased donors and increase in the aging population have led to increased kidney transplantation using older living donors (LDs) in Japan,…2019 American Transplant Congress
Lymphotoxin Beta Receptor Determines Lymph Node Structure for Treg Migration and Suppression of Graft Rejection
*Purpose: Lymphotoxin beta receptor (LTβR) mediated signaling in lymphatic endothelium cells (LEC) is important for migration of regulatory T cells (Treg) to afferent lymphatic vessels…2019 American Transplant Congress
The Feasibility Of Donation After Cardiac Death In Liver Transplantation: A Registry Analysis
SUNY Downstate Medical Center, Brooklyn, NY
*Purpose: Utilization of liver allografts from donation after cardiac death (DCD) has gradually increased in the United States. We aimed to analyze overall utilization of…2019 American Transplant Congress
Excellent Outcomes in Liver Transplantation under Charity Care: An Opportunity to Mitigate Socio-Economic Disparities in Access to Transplantation
