Clinical Correlation of Results of s CD4/CD8 Cytomegalovirus Cell Mediated Immunity Test with Incidence of Cytomegalovirus Infection
1UW Health, Madison, WI, 2UWMF, Madison, WI
*Purpose: The purpose of this study was to evaluate the predictive potential of a CD4/CD8 flow cytometric cell mediated immunity (CMI) assay for the development…2020 American Transplant Congress
Living Kidney Donor Profile Index Used to Assess Donor Risk Factors Affecting the Survival Rate of Transplanted Kidney and Comparison with Kidney Donor Profile Index of Deceased Donor Kidney Transplantation
*Purpose: Recently, the number of deceased donor kidneys(DDK) has been limited, so living donor kidney transplantation((LDKT) accounts for nearly 40% of kidney transplants worldwide. This…2020 American Transplant Congress
Assessing Providers’ Accuracy in Predicting Early Readmission after Kidney and Liver Transplantation
*Purpose: Predictive models capable of identifying patients at risk for readmission are in development. However, it is unknown how accurate clinicians are at predicting early…2020 American Transplant Congress
Predicting Renal Graft Function Post Transplantation Using Clinical and Biological Features Supported by Machine Learning Algorithms
*Purpose: Predicting renal function post transplantation is a frequent challenge impacting physician decisions and patient quality of life. We aimed to develop a composite score…2020 American Transplant Congress
Pre-Donation CKD-EPI GFR is Superior to Iothalamate Split Scan Results in Predicting 6-Month Post-Nephrectomy Donor Kidney Function
General Surgery, University of Michigan, Ann Arbor, MI
*Purpose: Predicting post-donation GFR remains a challenge during living kidney donor (LKD) evaluation. Iothalamate split scans have been employed during LKD evaluation to document measured…2020 American Transplant Congress
Sleeve Gastrectomy Compared with Gastric Bypass for Morbidly Obese Liver Transplant Candidates: A Decision Analysis
*Purpose: The use of bariatric surgery has increased for morbidly obese liver transplant candidates for whom placement on the waitlist is often restricted until they…2020 American Transplant Congress
Machine Learning to Predict Deceased Donor Liver Biopsy Results
United Network for Organ Sharing, Richmond, VA
*Purpose: Biopsies are often cited as a key factor on whether to accept a deceased liver offer. Motivated by the influential role of biopsy findings…2020 American Transplant Congress
Marijuana Use Among Liver Transplant Recipients
Internal Medicine, University of Colorado School of Medicine, Aurora, CO
*Purpose: The effect of marijuana (MJ) use on liver transplant (LTx) outcomes is unclear. We aimed to investigate the prevalence of MJ and cannabidiol (CBD)…2020 American Transplant Congress
Timing of Bariatric Surgery for Obese Liver Transplant Candidates
*Purpose: The timing of bariatric surgery for obese liver transplant candidates remains controversial. Surgery prior to transplant may improves one’s chance of receiving a transplant,…2020 American Transplant Congress
Donor-Derived Cell-Free DNA Combined with Histology Improves Prediction of eGFR Decline in Kidney Transplant Recipients over Histology Alone
*Purpose: Higher Banff inflammation and chronicity scores on kidney transplant (KTx) biopsies (Bx) have been associated with poorer graft survival, but Bx scores alone imperfectly…
