Predictive Model of Delayed Graft Function in Machine Perfused Kidney Transplantation: Model Validation Using Decision Curve Analysis.
1Surgery, Duke University, Durham, NC; 2Half Moon Bay, Raleigh.
Introduction: Predictive model for delayed graft function (DGF) was developed (Am J Transpl 2010; 10: 2279–86)excluding organs that were machine perfused (MP). Currently, approximately 50%…2016 American Transplant Congress
Outcomes Following Appendectomy in Kidney Transplant Recipients.
Surgery, Johns Hopkins, Baltimore.
Case series suggest kidney transplant (KT) recipients have higher complication rates and longer length of stay (LOS) following appendectomy than non-transplant patients. This study investigates…2016 American Transplant Congress
Combined Liver-Kidney Transplantation in Children: Long-Term Follow-Up in 27 Children.
Combined liver and kidney transplantation (CLKT) is an important treatment option for patients suffering from diseases like autosomal recessive polycystic kidney disease (ARPKD) or primary…2016 American Transplant Congress
Combination of Delayed Kidney Transplant (KT) and Better Quality Kidneys Offers Excellent Patient Survival in Combined Liver-Kidney Transplantation (CLKT).
Transplant Division, Department of Surgery, Indiana University, Indianapolis, IN.
Background: Despite prioritizing high MELD patients with the share-35 policy, patient survival in CLKT is relatively low. We previously showed the positive impact of delayed…2016 American Transplant Congress
Donation After Cardiac Death Dose Not Impact Short and Long Term Graft Outcomes in Simultaneous Pancreas and Kidney Transplantation.
1Washington University in St. Louis, St. Louis; 2Saint Louis University, St. Louis.
Background:Organ donation after cardiac death (DCD) has the potential to expand the pool of available organs for transplantation. Because of the concern that warm ischemia…2016 American Transplant Congress
The Impact of Body Mass Index > 35 on Kidney Transplant Outcomes: A Systematic Review.
Organ Transplant, University of Illinois Hospital and Health Sciences System, Chicago, IL.
Background: The increased prevalence of obesity (BMI > 30) among adults in the United States over the last two decades is reflected in the number…2016 American Transplant Congress
Elevated Intragraft Expression of Innate Immunity and Cell Death-Related Markers Characterizes Deceased Donor Conditions and Is a Risk Factor for Adverse Graft Outcome.
Background: The innate immune response is increasingly being recognized in allograft injury after kidney transplantation. We aimed to establish the relationship of innate immune gene…2016 American Transplant Congress
Virtual Crossmatch in Simultaneous Pancreas-Kidney Transplant.
Background: Simultaneous pancreas-kidney transplant (SPKT) outcomes have improved over the years. Methods: Analyses of demographic data of patients submitted to SPKT from Dec/2000 to Sep/2015…2016 American Transplant Congress
Evaluating Delayed Graft Function After Kidney Transplantation as a Potential Surrogate Outcome.
Department of Surgery, Johns Hopkins, Baltimore, MD.
Background: Recent work demonstrates significant inter-center heterogeneity in delayed graft function (DGF) rates after kidney transplantation, calling into question the value of a metric based…2016 American Transplant Congress
Bile Acid Signaling Affects Metabolism and Prolongs Allograft Survival in Obese Recipients.
Although obesity has been linked to impaired transplant outcomes, underlying mechanisms and consequences of obesity on alloimmunity are only poorly understood.Allogenic skin transplantations were performed…
