C1-Inhibitor in Acute Antibody-Mediated Rejection Non-Responsive to Conventional Therapy in Kidney Transplant Recipients: A Pilot Study.
The use of complement inhibitors in the treatment of acute antibody-mediated rejection (AMR) has not been thoroughly evaluated. We performed a prospective, single-arm, pilot study…2016 American Transplant Congress
Safety of a Short (One-Year) Waiting Time in Kidney Transplant Candidates Treated for Cancer.
In Norway, a one-year waiting time free of cancer recurrence is required before kidney transplantation. To provide an updated, large-scale assessment of this practice, the…2016 American Transplant Congress
Dynamics of Delayed Graft Function-Associated Risk in Deceased Donor Kidney Transplantation.
The long-term implications of delayed graft function (DGF) remain controversial. Moreover, non-proportional hazards of DGF have been reported in previous studies, which suggested that its…2016 American Transplant Congress
Increased Access to Transplantation of Highly Sensitized Patients Facilitated by the New Kidney Allocation System.
Abdominal Transplant, Montefiore Medical Center, Bronx, NY.
The purpose of our study was to evaluate the impact of the new kidney allocation system (KAS 2014) on the access to transplantation of HLA…2016 American Transplant Congress
Rapid Detection of Urinary CXCL9 as a Diagnostic and Prognostic Tool for Managing Acute Cellular Rejection (ACR) in Kidney Transplantation.
Urinary (u) CXCL9 protein expression can noninvasively diagnose ACR and serial measurements during CNI withdrawal indicate that elevations in uCXCL9 detect subclinical rejection. How elevated…
