Association of De Novo Antibody-Mediated Rejection and Increased Hospital Costs Following Kidney Transplant in Immunologically Low-Risk Patients
While antibody-mediated rejection (AMR) is likely the primary cause of kidney transplant (KTx) failure, and its treatment can be considered expensive, incremental center costs for…2015 American Transplant Congress
Induction With an Interleukin-2 Receptor Antagonist in Sensitized Adult Kidney Transplant Recipients Is Highly Effective and Safe
Background: The effectiveness and safety of induction with basiliximab (IL2RA) in sensitized kidney transplant recipients is not clearly established. The aim of this study was…2015 American Transplant Congress
Effect of Everolimus Versus Tacrolimus On Left Ventricular Hypertrophy in Renal Transplant Patients On Maintenance
PURPOSE: To compare the efficacy of everolimus (EVL) in improving LVH in a regimen with mycophenolic acid (MPA) vs tacrolimus (TAC)+MPA in maintenance renal transplant…2015 American Transplant Congress
Clinical and Immunologic Risk Factors Associated With Donor-Specific Antibody (DSA) Formation Following Renal Transplantation
Background: De novo DSA formation is emerging as an important risk factor for adverse graft outcomes following renal transplantation. Specific pretransplant risk factors for DSA…2015 American Transplant Congress
Conversion to Belatacept After Kidney Transplantation Does Not Alter Immunophenotype
1University Medicine Charité, Berlin, Germany; 2Labor Berlin GmbH, Berlin, Germany.
Belatacept offers a new option for renal allograft recipients who are suffering from side effects of calcineurin inhibitor or mTOR. Such a conversion may result…2015 American Transplant Congress
MDRD4 Equation Is Better Than CKD-EPI, Cockroft-Gault and Nankivell Equations to Estimate Glomerular Filtration Rate in Renal Transplantation
To evaluate which estimated GFR (eGFR) equation is the most appropriate to in kidney transplanted (KTx) recipients, we obtained data from all plasma EDTA-Cr51 clearances…2015 American Transplant Congress
Analysis of the Temporal Evolution of Causes of Graft Loss Among Kidney Transplant Recipients in a US Southern State
The past decade of kidney transplantation has seen many changes in immunosuppression (IS), donor, and recipient characteristics. This study analyzes the associations between the aforementioned…2015 American Transplant Congress
Clinical Outcomes of Living Kidney Donors With Medullary Sponge Kidney
Nephrology and Hypertension, Mayo Clinic, Rochester, MN.
Background: Patients with medullary sponge kidney (MSK) commonly encounter recurrent nephrolithiasis. The objective of this study was to assess the clinical and safety outcomes of…2015 American Transplant Congress
Change in Frailty Between Evaluation for Kidney Transplantation and Transplantation
BACKGROUND: Frailty prevalence is high and predicts early hospital readmission, length of stay and mortality in adults of all ages undergoing kidney transplantation (KT). The…2015 American Transplant Congress
Single Nucleotide Polymorphisms (SNPs) Associated With Acute Rejection in European American Kidney Transplant Recipients: A Genome Wide Association Study (GWAS)
Purpose: Acute rejection (AR) is associated with increased risk of allograft loss. Therefore, we conducted a GWAS to determine SNPs associated with AR in a…
