High Urinary Neutrophil Gelatinase Lipocalins (NGAL) Levels in Kidney Perfusates as Predictor of a Better Renal Function
DIMES, S.Orsola-Malpighi Hospital, Bologna University, Bologna, Italy
*Purpose: Neutrophil gelatinase-associated lipocalin (NGAL) has recently emerged as a biomarker of different conditions, but the biological role remains unclear. We hypnotized that NGAL has…2019 American Transplant Congress
Estrogen Mediated Protection in Renal Ischemia Reperfusion Injury (IRI) is Extrinsic to the Kidney
*Purpose: IRI causes morbidity in renal transplantation and other surgical scenarios. A better understanding of the molecular mechanisms of IRI is required so that strategies…2019 American Transplant Congress
Epidemiology of Parvovirus B19 and Anemia among Kidney Transplant Recipients
*Purpose: Persistent anemia has been described in kidney transplant (KTx) recipients with Parvovirus B19 virus infection. However, epidemiology of Parvovirus B19 and Parvovirus B19-related anemia…2019 American Transplant Congress
C1q Dominant Deposits in Renal Transplant Biopsies Are Not Associated with Allograft Dysfunction
*Purpose: Complement deposition in renal allograft biopsies and native kidneys may represent an ongoing inflammatory process. We studied the significance of incidental finding of predominant…2019 American Transplant Congress
Is Narrative Storytelling Ethical to Use to Educate the Public about Living Donation? Transplant Professionals Weigh In
*Purpose: Recent studies suggest that integrating health information through narrative stories can improve understanding of complex health conditions in diverse populations, especially those with low…2019 American Transplant Congress
Are Protocol Biopsies Necessary for Pediatric Renal Transplant Recipients?
Pediatrics, UCSD, San Diego, CA
*Purpose: Renal allograft survival indirectly correlates with acute rejection episodes. Subacute rejection is also associated with decreased graft survival. Protocol biopsies (bxs) have been implemented…2019 American Transplant Congress
Variations in Recipient and Donor Clinical Characteristics between Kidney Transplant Centers
*Purpose: When a patient can choose at which kidney transplant program to establish care, prior knowledge of program acceptance practices (of candidates and donors) can…2019 American Transplant Congress
Differences in the Cost of Kidney Organ Recovery by Organ Procurement Organization Size
*Purpose: Economic theory suggests that there should be an initial decrease in costs of products as production levels increase. Using data from independent OPOs we…2019 American Transplant Congress
Outcomes in Non-A1 and Non A1 B to B Deceased Donor Renal Transplantation Are Comparable to B Donor Renal Transplants
SUNY Downstate Medical Center, Brooklyn, NY
*Purpose: Blood type B patients wait longer to get deceased donor (DD) renal transplants compared to other blood types. On December 2014, the US national…2019 American Transplant Congress
Mitochondrial Dysfunction and Metabolic Reprogramming: Critical Features of Cyclosporine A Nephrotoxicity
University of Alabama at Birmingham, Birmingham, AL
*Purpose: Calcineurin inhibitors (CNIs) are potent immunosuppressants but over time contribute to allograft fibrosis. Clinical efforts to minimize or avoid CNI have not been uniformly…
