Prolonged Pre-Transplant Dialysis Duration Reverses the “Nephroprotective Effect” in Simultaneous Liver-Kidney Transplant Recipients.
University of Florida, Gainesville.
Past literature has suggested that simultaneous liver-kidney(SLK) transplant recipients may experience a nephroprotective effect compared to kidney(Ki) alone transplant recipients. Since hepatorenal syndrome is a…2016 American Transplant Congress
The Impact of Kidney Donor Profile Index (KDPI) on Rates of Delayed Graft Function (DGF).
Surgery, University of Wisconsin, Madison, WI.
Introduction: Delayed graft function (DGF) is the need for dialysis within the first 7 days after kidney transplantation. Immunologic and non-immunologic donor and recipient factors…2016 American Transplant Congress
Hyponatremia in Early Post Lung Transplantation Predicts Patient and Hospital Outcomes.
Background: Outcomes of hyponatremia during immediate post-lung transplantation are unknown. We aim to identify the incidence of postoperative hyponatremia and its outcomes.Methods: All lung transplantations…2016 American Transplant Congress
Pre-Emptive Kidney Transplantation with Living- Donor and Concomitant Unilateral Nephrectomy in Patients with Autosomal-Dominant Polycystic Kidney Disease: A Safe Strategy?
Objectives. Because the timing of the nephrectomy still remains unclear, we studied the complications and outcomes of unilateral nephrectomy and concomitant pre-emptive kidney transplant with…2016 American Transplant Congress
Parameters of Uremia-Associated Premature Ageing of Peripheral T Cells Do Not Predict Infectious Complications After Renal Transplantation.
Background: End-stage renal disease (ESRD) patients have a prematurely aged T-cell system, which may contribute to the uremia-associated immune deficiency. In this study we tested…2016 American Transplant Congress
Kidney Transplantation with Strong Preformed Donor-Specific Antibodies: Impact of C1q-Binding Ability.
1Nephrology, CHP, Porto, Portugal; 2CSTP, Porto, Portugal.
HLA-incompatible kidney transplantation is associated with worse outcomes given the presence of donor-specific anti-HLA antibodies (DSA). Our aim was to investigate the association between preformed…2016 American Transplant Congress
Kidney Transplants from Anuric Deceased Donors on Renal Replacement Therapy.
Transplantation, California Pacific Medical Center, San Francisco, CA.
Transplantation of deceased donor kidneys with Acute Kidney Injury (AKI) has become a generally well accepted practice with excellent results documented in the literature. The…2016 American Transplant Congress
Geographic Variability in Access to Transplant Centers for Children with End-Stage Renal Disease.
Background: Kidney transplantation is the optimal treatment for pediatric end-stage renal disease (ESRD); yet, there is substantial variability in waiting times for deceased donor kidneys…2016 American Transplant Congress
Acute Kidney Injury (AKI) Associated with Chronic Kidney Disease (CKD) in Paediatric Non-Kidney Transplant Recipients.
Background: Kidney dysfunction is common after solid organ transplantation; however, rates of post-transplant AKI and CKD in children are unknown.Objective: Determine rates of AKI and…2016 American Transplant Congress
Renal Outcome with Eculizumab in Patients with aHUS with Native and Transplanted Kidneys: Pooled Analysis of 100 Patients.
Purpose: aHUS often progresses to ESRD and requires transplant (tx). Eculiumab (ECU), a terminal complement inhibitor, inhibits TMA irrespective of tx status. We evaluated outcomes…
