Respiratory Viral Infections Induces Exosomes and Antibodies to Lung Self-Antigens, Kα1Tubulin and Collagen V, Following Human Lung Transplantation
Respiratory viral infection (RVI) following human lung transplantation (LTx) increases the risk for chronic rejection. We demonstrated that lung transplant recipients (LTxR) with acute and…2018 American Transplant Congress
The Impact of ABO Blood Type and Geography on Access to Lung Transplant
Background: Rare blood types (B and AB) are increasingly a risk factor for lung transplant waitlist mortality when compared to common blood types (A and…2018 American Transplant Congress
Evaluation of Survival and Maintenance Immunosuppression in Elderly Lung Transplant Recipients
Background: Lung transplantation in the elderly is controversial given increased risks and the optimal immunosuppression regimen is not fully understood.Methods: A retrospective cohort study was…2017 American Transplant Congress
Immune Monitoring-Guided Treatment of a Pediatric Patient with Sequential GvHD, Acute Rejection and CMV Infection Following Lung Transplantation.
Background: A 17 year old patient with cystic fibrosis (HLA-A11+, CMV-) underwent bilateral sequential lung transplantation (donor: HLA-A32+, CMV+). Immunosuppression (IS) consisted of Tacrolimus, MMF…2017 American Transplant Congress
Impact of Caregiver on 30 Day Readmission After Lung Transplant.
Department of Transplantation, Mayo Clinic Florida, Jacksonville, FL
The type of primary caregiver has been associated with long-term outcomes after lung transplantation. There is no data on the impact of caregiver associated with…2017 American Transplant Congress
Outcomes After Lung Transplant: Being a Teenager Does Not Stop at Age 18.
Recipient age at lung transplantation impacts survival. Adolescent recipients grouped by legal age definition (12-18) have been shown across all types of solid organ transplantation…2017 American Transplant Congress
Novel Biomarkers for Segregating Lung Transplant Rejection Phenotypes.
We sought to investigate biomarkers in BAL fluid and tissue for segregating BOS and RAS chronic rejection phenotypes in lung allografts. We had previously identified…2017 American Transplant Congress
Characterization of a B Lymphocyte Signature Predictive of Chronic Lung Allograft Dysfunction.
The occurrence of chronic lung allograft dysfunction (CLAD) is the main complication after lung transplantation (LT) and remains the most common cause of graft failure…2017 American Transplant Congress
Preoperative Pulmonary Hypertension Is Not Associated with Adverse Outcomes After Lung Transplantation.
Purpose: The effect of preoperative pulmonary hypertension (PH)[mdash]that is, mean pulmonary artery pressure (mPAP) of 25mmHg or higher[mdash]on lung transplantation (LTx) outcomes is debatable.Methods: We…2017 American Transplant Congress
Blood Gene Expression Predicts Bronchiolitis Obliterans Syndrome Appearance After Lung Transplantation.
Bronchiolitis obliterans syndrome (BOS) is the main manifestation of chronic lung allograft dysfunction responsible for the poor long-term outcome after lung transplantation. While physiopathological mechanisms…
