Better Never Than Late: Differences in Outcomes and Risk Factors for Early and Late Rejection After Kidney Transplantation.
Medicine, University Hospitals Case Medical Center, Cleveland, OH.
Background: Late acute rejection (AR) is associated with inferior outcomes relative to early AR after kidney transplantation. We sought to examine the differences in risk…2016 American Transplant Congress
Is C3d-fixing Donor Specific HLA Antibody Detection Really Necessary?
Introduction: Chronic antibody–mediated rejection is the main cause of late kidney graft loss. The identification of donor-specific antibodies (DSA) in the serum is one of…2016 American Transplant Congress
Implications of Subclinical Borderline Acute Cellular Rejection Detected in Protocol Biopsies on Graft Outcomes.
Background: The effects of subclinical borderline acute cellular rejection (BACR-defined as I1T1 per Banff criteria) detected in protocol biopsies (Bx) on subsequent graft function and…2016 American Transplant Congress
Global Kidney Exchange.
Introduction: Instead of thinking of the developing world as a place where there are desperate people who will sell their kidneys for money, we propose…2016 American Transplant Congress
Regression of Asymptomatic Cardiomyopathy and Clinical Outcome of Renal Transplant Recipients: Long-Term Extension of Two Randomized Controlled Trials.
Nephrology, Dialysis, and Transplantation, University of Genoa, Genoa, Italy.
Background Asymptomatic left ventricular hypertrophy (LVH) is highly prevalent and associated with adverse outcome in renal transplant recipients (RTRs). Nonetheless, there are currently no available…2016 American Transplant Congress
Resveratrol Effectively Suppress Th17 Associated Allo-Immune Responses by the Modulation of AMPK/mTOR Pathway.
The aim of this study is to investigate the effect of resveratrol on Th17 allo-immune responses under tacrolimus (Tac)-based immune suppression. First, we investigated the…2016 American Transplant Congress
Live Kidney Donors Have Significant Out-of-Pocket Costs Associated with Donation.
Johns Hopkins School of Medicine, Baltimore.
While financial barriers to transplantation have been recognized, limited data exists on the total non-reimbursed expense associated with live donation. Furthermore, donor costs have not…2016 American Transplant Congress
Recipient Age and KDPI Are Potent Predictors of Early Acute Rejection in the Modern Era of Deceased Donor Kidney Transplantation.
Medicine, University of Virginia, Charlottesville, VA.
The rate of acute rejection in the first six months after deceased donor (DD) kidney transplant is about 10% in the modern era of immunosuppression.…2016 American Transplant Congress
Plasma Endothelial Microvesicle Counts Indicate Allograft Rejection Following Kidney Transplantation.
Background: The release of surface-derived microvesicles (MV) is a common phenomenon of cellular activation and occurs specifically as a consequence of terminal complement complex assembly…2016 American Transplant Congress
Early Onset Hyperuricemia Is a Prognostic Marker for Kidney Allograft Dysfunction.
Aim: It is not certain whether hyperuricemia is a true risk factor of kidney allograft failure. We investigated the association of hyperuricemia and graft outcome.Methods:…
