Long-Term Prognosis of BK Virus Associated Nephropathy in Kidney Transplant Recipients
Background: BK virus-associated nephropathy (BKVAN) is an important risk factor that results in an allograft loss in kidney transplant recipients (KTRs). The short-term prognosis of…2018 American Transplant Congress
Death-Censored Graft Failure (DCGF) Post Kidney Transplant (KTx) is Usually the Result of Rapid Loss of Function after Periods of Stability
Late graft dysfunction leading to clinically indicated transplant biopsy (KTxBx) is a better predictor of subsequent DCGF than baseline data and early post-transplant events (Gaston…2018 American Transplant Congress
A Single Center Outcomes Analysis of UNOS Defined "Hard to Place Kidneys"
Keck Medical Center at USC, Los Angeles, CA.
The discard rate of potentially usable kidneys remains dismal despite a critical shortage of organs. The Scientific Registry of Transplant Recipients (SRTR) now provides a…2017 American Transplant Congress
Preventing of Rejection of Vascularized Composite Allografts by Targeting T Cell Metabolism.
[Background] Upon antigen recognition and co-stimulation, T lymphocytes upregulate the metabolic machinery necessary to proliferate and sustain effector function. This metabolic reprogramming in T cells…2017 American Transplant Congress
Composite Prognostic Score Improves Clinical Benefit in Kidney Recipients Receiving Standard of Care Therapy for Antibody-Mediated Rejection.
Paris Translational Research Center for Organ Transplantation, Paris, France
There is a marked heterogeneity in AMR patients' prognosis after SOC treatment including plasma exchange (PE) and intravenous immunoglobulins (IVIG). We investigated whether the use…2017 American Transplant Congress
Elevated Donor HbA1C Confers Impaired Overall Survival Following Renal Allotransplantation in Recipients of Allografts from Donors with Diabetes Mellitus: A National Analysis.
Surgery, Duke University Medical Center, Durham, NC
Introduction: Donor diabetes mellitus (DM) is a risk factor for impaired outcomes following renal transplant. Donor DM is factored into the Kidney Donor Risk Index…2017 American Transplant Congress
Immune Sensitization During Pregnancy Reduces Long-Term Benefit for Kidney Recipients of Offspring Living Donors.
Background Offspring-to-mother kidney transplantations are associated with excellent short-term outcomes given the accuracy of histocompatibility testing and potency of immunosuppression. However, immunologic memory responses in…2017 American Transplant Congress
KDPI Obscures Trends in Absolute Donor Risk.
Scientific Registry of Transplant Recipients, Minneapolis, MN
The kidney donor profile index (KDPI) is commonly used to measure deceased donor kidney quality based on the kidney donor risk index (KDRI) (Rao, et…2017 American Transplant Congress
Retroactive Application of a New Risk Index for Living Donor Kidney Transplantation (LKDPI) to Renal Transplants in Veracruz, Mexico.
Kidney Donor Profile Index (KDPI) was designed to estimate the graft loss risk in deceased donor transplants. Recently, the Epidemiology Research Group for Organ Transplantation…2017 American Transplant Congress
Risk of Kidney Rejection Following Simultaneous Liver Kidney Transplantation.
Introduction: Simultaneous liver kidney transplant (SLK) recipients may be at risk of antibody-mediated kidney rejection (AMR) if the pre-transplant crossmatch is positive (+CXM). Accordingly, in…
