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…2016 American Transplant Congress
Concordance Between Pancreatic Rejection and Kidney Rejection and Kidney Survival in Simultaneous Pancreas Kidney Transplantation.
Transplant Nephrology, Indiana University, Indianapolis, IN.
Purpose: It is not known whether pancreas rejection is associated with increased kidney rejection. Also, it is not known whether pancreas survival affects kidney and…2016 American Transplant Congress
Immunological Ageing-Related Expansion of Highly Differentiated CD4+CD28null T Cells Is Associated with a Lower Risk for Early Acute Rejection After Renal Transplantation.
Background: End-stage renal disease patients have a dysfunctional, prematurely aged peripheral T-cell system. Here we hypothesized that the degree of premature T-cell ageing before kidney…2016 American Transplant Congress
End Stage Renal Disease Patients Have a Skewed T Cell Receptor Vbeta Repertoire.
IntroductionEnd stage renal disease (ESRD) is associated with a defective T-cell mediated immunity, resembling premature T-cell ageing. A diverse T-cell receptor Vbeta (TCR Vβ) repertoire…2016 American Transplant Congress
Survival Advantage in the Elderly with Kidney Transplantation.
Background: Patients with established renal failure (ERF) are aging. Of patients starting dialysis at our centre a third and a half are over the age…
