Kidney Size Does Not Matter: Should the Decision to Split Pediatric En Bloc Donor Kidneys Be Based on Donor Weight Rather Than Kidney Length?
Division of Transplant Surgery, University of California, Davis, Sacramento, CA
Background: Deceased donor kidneys from pediatric donors have been used with good results. However, there is little consensus on the criteria used to safely split…2017 American Transplant Congress
Association of Dialysis Facility Neighborhood Socioeconomic Status with Barriers to Kidney Transplant.
Introduction: Dialysis facilities in neighborhoods with low socioeconomic status (SES) have lower facility-level transplantation rates. We estimated the association between barriers to transplantation and facility-area…2017 American Transplant Congress
Increasing the Kidney Donor Pool by Expanding Limits on Body Mass Index and Age: A Single-Center Evaluation of Safety for Donors and Recipients.
Surgery, University of Maryland School of Medicine, Baltimore, MD
Using donors with advanced age or elevated body mass index (BMI) could increase the number of live donor kidney transplants. Our aim was to evaluate…2017 American Transplant Congress
Pregnandy During Kidney Trasplantation in a Low Income Population.
Renal Transplant Unit, CRAI Sur - CUCAIBA, La Plata, Buenos Aires, Argentina
Background: The possibility of having a successful pregnancy in stage V chornic kidney failure improves after transplant, although the fertility rate is lower than in…2017 American Transplant Congress
Early and Late High Intrapatient Variability of Tacrolimus Levels Can Predict Late Renal Allograft Rejection.
Introduction Nonadherence to immunosuppressive medication can start any time after transplantation and is associated with rejection and graft loss. We have previously shown that high…2017 American Transplant Congress

Impact of Immunosuppression Adherence on De Novo Donor-Specific Antibody Formation in Renal Transplant Recipients in Canada: A Modeling Analysis.
Acute rejection rates and short-term graft survival have improved substantially as a result of advances in immunosuppression (IS), though longer-term graft survival rates have improved…2017 American Transplant Congress
Single-Center, Prospective, Open Label Pilot Study to Investigate the Effectiveness of Everolimus Associated with Mycophenolic Acid and Prednisone in Adult Patients Submitted to an Allograft Renal Transplant with Calcineurin Inhibitor Withdrawl on Week 16th.
Although CI have proven efficacy in kidney transplantation worldwide, they are drugs with nephrotoxic potential and may contribute to chronic renal allograft nephropathy. As a…2017 American Transplant Congress
Prediction of Renal Allograft Acute Rejection Using a Novel Non-Invasive Model Based on Acoustic Radiation Force Impulse.
Point shear wave elastography (p-SWE) based on acoustic radiation force impulse (ARFI) is a novel technology to quantify tissue stiffness by measuring shear wave speed…
