The Efficacy and Safety of Plaquenil in Kidney Transplants Patients with Lupus.
Background: Hydroxychloroquine, also known as Plaquenil ( PLQ) is an antimalarial drug with immunomodulatory action. Recent studies have demonstrated a protective effect of PLQ in…2017 American Transplant Congress
Predictors of Graft Loss in an Urban Predominantly Minority Cohort of Kidney Transplant Recipients.
Monterfiore/Einstein Center for Transplantation, Bronx, NY
BackgroundWe aimed to determine the demographic and clinical characteristics associated with graft loss in a cohort of kidney transplant recipients with a high African-American and…2017 American Transplant Congress
Reduction of Recipient Cell Cross-Dressing with Donor MHC Molecules Prolongs Allograft Survival in Mice.
Cross-dressing of recipient cells with allogeneic MHC molecules carried by donor exosomes occurs regularly after transplantation. However, it is still unknown whether this phenomenon plays…2017 American Transplant Congress
Donor Warm Ischemic Time >80min Is an Important Predictor of Kidney Graft Survival from Donors After Cardiac Death.
We analyzed UNOS data to determine how donor warm ischemic time (WIT), donor BMI, donor hypertension (dHTN), cold ischemic time (CIT), and vasopressin use in…2017 American Transplant Congress
Gut Microbial Metabolite Improves Function and Prolongs Kidney Allograft Survival in Mice.
To determine the impact of dietary administration of the gut microbial metabolite sodium acetate (SA) on kidney rejection and survival in a fully MHC-mismatched murine…2017 American Transplant Congress
Costimulation Independent Acute Rejection Requires CD127 Signaling.
Department of Surgery, Emory University, Atlanta, GA
Clinical costimulation blockade with belatacept leads to improved survival and graft function. However, a subset of patients experience costimulation independent rejection. We identified a critical…2017 American Transplant Congress
Outcomes of Kidney Transplantation Using Deceased Diabetic Donors.
Introduction: Histological reversal of diabetic lesions in transplanted kidney once euglycemia has been restored is well documented. Conversely, it is known that diabetes status in…2017 American Transplant Congress
Living Kidney Transplant: The Influence of Intraoperative Hemodynamics on Delayed Graft Function.
Despite advantages of living donor kidneys, intraoperative insults may subject these kidneys to poor outcomes. Therefore, we investigated whether intraoperative fluid volumes and hemodynamics in…2017 American Transplant Congress
