Age Adapted Immunosuppression for Elderly Kidney Allograft Recipients: Balancing Risks for Cancer versus Rejection.
Introduction Cancer is a growing cause of morbidity and mortality after kidney transplantation, driven by immunosuppression. Age is one of the strongest risk factors for…2016 American Transplant Congress
Parameters of Uremia-Associated Premature Ageing of Peripheral T Cells Do Not Predict Infectious Complications After Renal Transplantation.
Background: End-stage renal disease (ESRD) patients have a prematurely aged T-cell system, which may contribute to the uremia-associated immune deficiency. In this study we tested…2016 American Transplant Congress
Expansion of Anti-HLA Antibodies After Renal Transplantation and Prognosis in Those Which Fix C1q.
Introduction. Antibody-mediated rejection (ABMR) is the major cause of allograft failure. We studied the evolution and prognostic effect of pre-formed and de novo anti-HLA antibodies…2016 American Transplant Congress
Infection-Related Mortality After Kidney Transplantation in the Current Era.
A. Purpose: Infections are the most common non-cardiovascular causes of death after kidney transplantation. We analyzed in detail the current infection-related mortality among kidney transplant…2016 American Transplant Congress
Long-Term Outcomes in Epstein-Barr Virus (EBV)-Positive Patients Receiving Belatacept (Bela) or Cyclosporine (CsA) in BENEFIT-EXT.
At 7 yrs post transplant in BENEFIT-EXT (NCT00114777), bela-treated pts had similar graft survival and improved renal function vs CsA-treated pts. Bela is indicated for…2016 American Transplant Congress
Using 3D Printing in Complex Pediatric Renal Transplantation.
Introduction:Structural complexities can render graft implantation infeasible in small paediatric recipients. Surgical decision-making currently relies on 3D medical imaging which limits evaluation of structures by…2016 American Transplant Congress
Increased Gene Expression of TGF-β in Peripheral Blood Mononuclear Cells from Renal Transplant Patients with Polyomavirus BK Viremi.
We aimed to investigate the roles of cytokines during polyomavirus BK (BKV) reactivation in renal transplant patients. Forty-eight renal allograft recipients were enrolled in this…2016 American Transplant Congress
Subclinical Cytomegalovirus Viraemia in Renal Transplant Recipients.
Background: Studies suggest low-level cytomegalovirus (CMV) viraemia, detected with sensitive molecular assays, may lead to poorer graft outcomes following renal transplantation.Aims: Investigate the incidence, outcomes,…2016 American Transplant Congress
Significant Association of Innate Immune Related Genes Polymorphism on Infectious Complications Following Early Post Renal Transplantation phase.
Department of Gastroenrological and Transplant Surgery, Hiroshima University, Hiroshima, Japan.
ObjectiveInfectious complication is the leading cause of graft dysfunction and patient loss after renal transplantation (RT). In the early post-transplant phase where acquired immunity is…2016 American Transplant Congress
Evaluation of Patient-Reported Nonadherence with Tacrolimus Level Variability in Renal Transplant Recipients.
Medication nonadherence (NA) continues to be a major cause of graft loss post-transplant. Several methods for prospective adherence monitoring have been described including patient interview…
