Non-Renal Factors Predicting Combined Liver-Kidney Transplantation for Non-Dialysis-Requiring Wait-Listed End Stage Liver Disease Patients: 14 Years of US Experience.
University of Florida, Gainesville, FL
OBJECTIVE: We aimed to identify the non-renal factors associated with the higher likelihood of combined liver-kidney transplantation (CLKT) vs. liver transplantation alone (LTA) in end…2017 American Transplant Congress
A UNOS Database Analysis of Patient Outcomes from Kidney Alone versus Simultaneous Kidney Liver Transplants Utilizing Matched Donor Pairs.
Surgery - Division of Transplantation, University of Wisconsin - Madison, Madison, WI
Introduction: Renal grafts used in simultaneous kidney liver (SLK) transplants are allocated by arbitrary clinical criteria without entering the kidney allocation algorithm. The goal of…2017 American Transplant Congress
A Novel Equation, GRAIL (GfR Assessment in Liver Disease) Correctly Classifies Patients with Reduced GFR and Predicts Development of ESRD.
1BUMC, Dallas, TX; 2USC, LA, CA; 3NW, Chicago, IL
Estimating glomerular filtration rate(CKD-EPI, MDRD-4, MDRD-6) is poor in liver patients with renal dysfunction(GFR<30ml/min). We developed a model for GFR Assessment In Liver disease(GRAIL) before…
