An Economic Analysis of Tolerance Induction for Two-Haplotype Match Kidney Living Donor Transplant Recipients
1Medicine, Stanford University, Palo Alto, CA; 2Medicine, Baylor College of Medicine, Houston, TX.
Purpose:Tolerance induction is a novel therapy that enables some living donor kidney transplant recipients (LDKTR) to safely discontinue immunosuppressive (IS) therapy. We examine whether tolerance…2015 American Transplant Congress
Rabbit Antithymocyte Globulin Is Associated With Improved Patient and Graft Survival in Liver Transplantation. Experience With 595 Patients
BACKGROUND: Use of induction therapy in liver transplantation is debatable. We aimed to compare clinical outcomes of different induction protocols in liver transplant recipients.METHODS: Retrospective…2015 American Transplant Congress
Thymoglobulin Administration During Multi-Visceral and Isolated Small Bowel Procurement Does Not Adversely Affect the Survival of Harvested Organs
Anti-thymocyte globulin administration in donors before intestinal procurement may result in decreased graft versus-host disease (GVHD) due to reduced recipient lymphocyte trafficking after reperfusion. Reluctance…2015 American Transplant Congress
Incidence and Risk Factors for Infectious Complications in Liver Transplant Patients Converted to Everolimus
AIM:Immunosuppression with an mTOR inhibitor plus calcineurin inhibitor (CNI) minimization is increasingly used in liver transplantation to protect against the nephrotoxic and neurotoxic side effects…2015 American Transplant Congress
Current Status of US Intestinal and Multivisceral Transplantation: An Analysis of the UNOS Intestine Transplant Registry
