A Systematic Over View of Five Year Results of Serial Protocol Kidney Transplant Biopsies.
Surgery, UCSF, San Francisco, CA.
Background: Protocol biopsies can detect sub-clinical rejection. With declining rates of clinical acute rejection, a systematic review of protocol biopsies can provide clues about other…2016 American Transplant Congress
Mortality and Graft Loss Attributable to Readmission Following Kidney Transplantation.
Surgery, Johns Hopkins University, School of Medicine, Baltimore, MD.
BACKGROUND: Early hospital readmission (EHR) following kidney transplantation (KT) is independently associated with graft loss and mortality. Prior work assumes that this association is constant…2016 American Transplant Congress

1Northwestern University, Chicago; 2NMH, Chicago; 3TRACT Therapeutics, Chicago.
Therapeutic cell transfer using regulatory T cells (Tregs) holds the promise of reducing the need for drug based immunosuppression (IS) and improving long term graft…2016 American Transplant Congress
Infectious Complication in Extremely Elderly Kidney Transplant (KT) Recipients: A Leading Cause of Death.
Introduction: The incidence of infection after KT have been reported to directly increase with recipient's age, likely due to the combined effect of co-morbidities and…2016 American Transplant Congress
SLPI in the Perfusion Liquid: A Predictor Marker of Short and Long Term Clinical Outcomes.
A lot of efforts have been done to identify the risk factors that tend to diminish the incidence of delayed graft function (DGF). Recently, the…2016 American Transplant Congress
Enhanced Activation of Hemostasis During Kidney Transplantation in Patients on Dialysis Compared to Pre-Emptively Transplanted Patients.
Groningen Transplant Center, University Medical Center Groningen, Groningen, Netherlands.
Introduction: It is generally assumed that dialysis patients (DP) have a more severe bleeding diathesis related to platelet dysfunction than pre-emptively transplanted patients (PEP) who…2016 American Transplant Congress
Distinct Phenotype and Function of Plasmacytoid Dendritic Cells from Kidney Allografts in Tolerant Recipients.
BACKGROUND: Cellular infiltrates in kidney allografts may be relevant to the induction or maintenance of regulatory tolerance. Here we examined the phenotype, anatomical distribution and…2016 American Transplant Congress
Circulating Angiotensin II Receptor: Possible Marker for Antibody Mediated Tissue Injury?
Transplant Surgery, VCU Health, Richmond, VA.
Background. Antibody mediated rejection is the leading cause of renal allograft failure. Membrane-bound angiotensin II receptor(AngII) in the renal allograft can be a target of…2016 American Transplant Congress
Polyclonal Treg Adoptive Therapy for Control of Subclinical Kidney Transplant Inflammation (TASK Pilot Trial).
Purpose: Early renal graft inflammation is associated with progressive fibrosis & late dysfunction. Treg therapy can reverse established inflammation in animal models. We conducted a…2016 American Transplant Congress
Short Term Changes in HRQOL Following Kidney Transplantation.
Health-Related Quality of Life (HRQOL) is a patient-centered outcome that measures the impact of a disease and its treatment. This is particularly relevant to those…
