Sevoflurane Based Anesthesia in Recipients Reduces 2 Year Acute Rejection in Living Donor Kidney Transplantation. Results from the VAPOR-Trial
IntroductionVolatile anesthetic agents like sevoflurane may protect against the ischemia and reperfusion injury (IRI) that is inevitable part of organ donation and transplantation. It is…2015 American Transplant Congress
Delayed Graft Function (DGF) in Kidney Transplant Recipients (KTRs) Is Associated With Early Allograft Inflammation and Progressive Fibrosis Within 3 Months
University of Pittsburgh, Pittsburgh.
DGF had been shown to be deleterious to KTR outcomes. Analysis of histological progression in KTRs with DGF was previously not attempted. In this prospective…2015 American Transplant Congress
Impact of HLA Antibody Monitoring After Kidney Transplantation
The impact of donor specific antibodies (DSA) and optimal therapeutic intervention for DSA in kidney transplant (KT) recipients has been reported with variable results. We…2015 American Transplant Congress
The Effect of Preformed and De Novo Donor-Specific Antibodies (DSA) in Acute Rejection (AR) After Liver Transplantation (LTX)
BACKGROUND: The role of preformed and den novo formed DSA in LTX is not fully revealed. The aim of our study was to determine if…2015 American Transplant Congress
Current Status of US Intestinal and Multivisceral Transplantation: An Analysis of the UNOS Intestine Transplant Registry
The purpose of this study is to analyze the current status of US intestinal transplantation (IT). As of 9/19/2014, 2441 IT have been performed in…2015 American Transplant Congress
Lung Biopsy Findings in Pediatric Lung Transplant Patients With Restrictive Physiology
Background: Long-term survival in pediatric lung transplantation is limited by bronchiolitis obliterans (BO), but varieties of chronic lung allograft dysfunction (CLAD) are poorly understood. Restrictive…2015 American Transplant Congress
mTOR Inhibitors Reduce the Endothelial Transmigration of Leukocytes After Ischemia
ObjectivemTOR inhibitors Everolimus and Sirolimus are currently used as maintenance immunosuppressive agents to prevent rejection of solid transplanted organs. Episodes of transplant rejection and graft…2015 American Transplant Congress
Detection of Donor-Specific Anti-HLA Antibodies Is Associated With Changes in the Peripheral Distribution of NK Cell Subsets in Kidney Allograft Recipients
Background: Microvascular damage has become the real protagonist involved in antibody-mediated rejection and NK-cell antibody-dependent cell mediated cytotoxicity (ADCC) has been proposed as a contributing…2015 American Transplant Congress
Calcineurin-Inhibitor Conversion to mTOR Inhibitor in Renal Transplant Recipients Leads to Worse Long Term Clinical Outcomes
We previously reported the short-term feasibility of Calcineurin-Inhibitor (CNI) elimination in kidney transplant recipients. We now report the long-term clinical impact on renal allograft function…2015 American Transplant Congress
Reassessing Tubulitis and Interstitial Infiltrate: Creating a New Probabilistic Definition of TCMR
Alberta Transplant Applied Genomics Centre, Edmonton, Canada.
Conventional diagnosis of T cell-mediated rejection (TCMR) in kidney transplant biopsies relies on interstitial inflammation (i-lesions), tubulitis (t-lesions), vasculitis (v-lesions) and experience-derived interpretation rules. The…
