Heterologous Persistent and Latent Viral Infections Do Not Impact Graft Survival.
1Duke University, Durham; 2Emory University, Atlanta.
Purpose: Infection induces costimulation-resistant memory T cells with heterologous alloreactivity. Rapamycin has been shown to mitigate the effect of these cells in transplant rejection. Previous…2016 American Transplant Congress
Prolonged Pre-Transplant Dialysis Duration Reverses the “Nephroprotective Effect” in Simultaneous Liver-Kidney Transplant Recipients.
University of Florida, Gainesville.
Past literature has suggested that simultaneous liver-kidney(SLK) transplant recipients may experience a nephroprotective effect compared to kidney(Ki) alone transplant recipients. Since hepatorenal syndrome is a…2016 American Transplant Congress
Clinical Significance of C3d Binding Donor Specific Anti-HLA Antibodies (DSA) Detected by Single Antigen Beads (SAB) After Kidney Transplantation.
A new Luminex-based SAB method detects DSA compliment fixing via C3d-binding. This study compares the clinical outcomes in kidney recipients that developed de novo DSA…2016 American Transplant Congress
The Combined Effect of Acute Rejection and De Novo Donor-Specific Antibodies on Kidney Allograft Survival.
Division of Renal Diseases and Hypertension, University of Colorado, Aurora, CO.
While dnDSA is associated with graft loss in multiple studies, the clinical context in which dnDSA develops and contributes to graft loss is less well…2016 American Transplant Congress
The Burden and Outcomes of Fractures in Kidney Transplant Recipients.
Background: Kidney transplantation confers an increased risk for bone fractures. However, there is poor consensus on the incidence of fractures in kidney transplant recipients (KTRs),…2016 American Transplant Congress
Impact of Early Hospital Readmission Following Simultaneous Pancreas Kidney Transplantation.
Surgery, Johns Hopkins University, School of Medicine, Baltimore, MD.
BACKGROUND: Our group recently demonstrated that 54% of simultaneous pancreas kidney (SPK) recipients experience early hospital readmission (EHR). It is unknown whether EHR following SPK…2016 American Transplant Congress
Composite Score to Define the Risk of Allograft Loss After Standard-of-Care Treatment of Antibody-Mediated Rejection in Kidney Transplantation.
The development of a reliable surrogate endpoint for allograft survival after AMR treatment is a current unmet need in clinical transplantation (FDA AMR Workshop). We…2016 American Transplant Congress
Detection of Venous Thrombi by Microdialysis Catheters and Angiographic Guided Thrombus Extraction in Two Solitary Pancreas Transplants.
Introduction: The complication rate after pancreas transplantation (PTx) is very high, with venous thrombosis being the most commonly occurring complication that leads to early graft…2016 American Transplant Congress
Endoscopic Polydimethylsiloxane Injection in Prevention of Recurrent Graft Pyelonephritis for Transplanted Kidney with Vesicoureteral Reflux.
Reccurent acute graft pyelonephritis (AGPN) with vesicoureteral reflux (GVUR) can have a deleterious impact on graft outcome. The objective of this study was to evaluate…2016 American Transplant Congress
Profiling of T Cell Subsets in a Primate Cardiac Transplant Model.
Surgery, University of Maryland, Baltimore, MD.
Purpose: Costimulation blockade prolongs graft survival but does not induce tolerance in primates, and mechanisms of rejection are incompletely understood. Here we evaluate changes in…
