Impact of NODAT on Post-Transplant Survival – An Analysis of UNOS Data.
University Hospital Cleveland Medical Center, Cleveland
Background: New Onset Diabetes After Transplantation (NODAT) is common and may adversely affect long-term patient survival. Impact of NODAT on patient survival in heart transplantation…2017 American Transplant Congress
Glucose Tolerance After Kideney Transplant Is Affected by Systemic Insulin Sensitivity Rather Than Usage of Tacrolimus.
Introduction and Objective: Tacrolimus and steroid can affect insulin secretion and insulin sensitivity, resulting in worsened glucose tolerance after kidney transplant (KTx). However, the effect…2017 American Transplant Congress
The Impact of De Novo Post-Transplant Diabetes on Hepatic Steatosis and Liver Transplant Outcomes.
Introduction: As the prevalence of diabetes (DM) increases in the general population, it is also increasing in the transplant (Tx) population. Post-transplant diabetes (PTDM) has…2016 American Transplant Congress
Positive Impact of a Pilot Pharmacist-Run Diabetes Pharmacotherapy Clinic in Solid Organ Transplant Recipients.
Background: Post-transplant diabetes mellitus (PTDM) can lead to significant morbidity and cardiovascular death with a functioning graft. A paucity of literature exists regarding glycemic control…2016 American Transplant Congress
A Genome Wide Association Study of New Onset Diabetes After Transplant in Kidney Transplantation.
Purpose: New-onset diabetes after transplantation (NODAT) is associated increased mortality. Using a DNA biobank linked to electronic medical records (EMR) at Vanderbilt University (BioVU), we…2016 American Transplant Congress
Higher Functional Capacity Prior to Kidney Transplant Confers Lower Risk of New Onset Diabetes After Transplantation.
Background: New onset diabetes after transplantation (NODAT) adversely impacts both allograft function and patient survival. We hypothesize that higher functional capacity prior to kidney transplant…2016 American Transplant Congress
Cardiovascular Prognosis and Adverse Cardiac Events After Orthotopic Liver Transplantation.
University of Bologna, Bologna, Italy.
Cardiovascular (CV) disease is a major cause of morbidity and mortality among transplant candidate and recipients of noncardiac organs. Aiming to analyze the impact of…2016 American Transplant Congress
Tacrolimus (Tac), Rather Than Cyclosporine (CsA), Interacts with Insulin Resistance (IR) to Alter Key Transcription Factors for β-Cell Identity & Function without Altering NFAT Localization.
Inhibiting the calcineurin(CN)/NFAT-pathway in β-cells may contribute to posttransplant diabetes. The presumed higher diabetogenicity of Tac is thought to owe to an IC50 for CN…2016 American Transplant Congress
Evolution of Body Composition and Associations to Glucose Metabolism During the First Year After Kidney Transplantation.
Background. The evolution and association between body composition and glucose haemostasis after kidney transplantation has not been elucidated.Methods. We investigated 150 consecutive patients without suspected…2016 American Transplant Congress
Gut Dysbiosis and Metabolic Disorders in Kidney Transplant Recipients.
IntroductionGut microbiota modifications (dysbiosis) have been observed in obese and/or diabetic patients. Kidney transplant recipients (KTR) are particularly exposed to the development of metabolic disorders,…
