2021 American Transplant Congress
Early Experience with Broad Renal Genetic Testing in an Academic Transplant Center
*Purpose: Genetic testing is an emerging tool in kidney transplantation (KT), particularly to assess risk of recurrent disease in patients with KT and for selection…2021 American Transplant Congress
Risk Factors Predicting Outcomes in Long-Term Pediatric Kidney Transplant Graft Survival
Baylor College of Medicine, Houston, TX
*Purpose: Pediatric kidney transplant recipients generally have good outcomes post-transplantation; however, the younger age and longer lifespan after transplantation in the pediatric population make understanding…2021 American Transplant Congress
The Australian and New Zealand Living Kidney Donor Profile Index

Transplant-free Survival in Alcohol-related Liver Disease (ALD) Patients Presenting with First Evidence of Ascites
*Purpose: The development of ascites is a poor prognostic sign for patients with cirrhosis. The factors associated with transplant-free survival at initial presentation with ascites…2021 American Transplant Congress
Role of Baseline PD-1 Checkpoint Inhibitor Pathway Expression in Bridge to Liver Transplant Hepatocellular Carcinoma
Ochsner Health, New Orleans, LA
*Purpose: Response to first line liver-directed therapy (LDT) in hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) has important implications in both bridge to transplant (BTT) success as well as…2021 American Transplant Congress
Evaluation of Serum Klotho Levels at Early Kidney Post-Transplant
*Purpose: Klotho expression is lowered in patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD). After kidney transplant (KT), serum Klotho levels could be significantly increased compared to…2021 American Transplant Congress
Albumin Level Prior to Liver-Directed Therapy is a Risk Factor of Waitlist Tumor Progression Independent of HCC Burden
Ochsner Health, New Orleans, LA
*Purpose: Milan Criteria, α-fetoprotein (AFP), and MELD score at diagnosis influence prognosis in bridge to transplant (BTT) hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). With HCC surveillance many patients…2021 American Transplant Congress
Molecular Classifiers for Chronic Lung Allograft Dysfunction Transbronchial and Mucosal Biopsies Predict Clinical CLAD and Graft Loss
*Purpose: Chronic lung allograft dysfunction (CLAD) portends poor outcomes yet is poorly understood. In the multi-center INTERLUNG study we measured transcripts in transbronchial biopsies (TBBs)…2021 American Transplant Congress
Torque Teno Virus Load Predicts Allograft Rejection but Not Viral Infection After Kidney Transplantation; A Cohort Joint Modelling Study
*Purpose: The main challenge of immunosuppressive therapy after solid organ transplantation is to find the optimal dose regimen, and prevent allograft rejection as well as…2021 American Transplant Congress
Pre-transplant Prognostic Nutritional Index Predicts Short-term Outcomes After Liver Transplantation
Transplant Institute, Henry Ford Hospital, Detroit, MI
