Stimulating Protease Inhibitor 9 Expression By Human Regulatory T Cells Improve Homeostasis
Renal/ Transplantation Research Center, Brigham and Women's Hospital, Boston, MA.
In this study, we show for the first time the key role of a protease inhibitor PI9 in human regulatory T cells (Tregs) homeostasis. Recent…2015 American Transplant Congress
Rabbit Antithymocyte Globulin Is Associated With Improved Patient and Graft Survival in Liver Transplantation. Experience With 595 Patients
BACKGROUND: Use of induction therapy in liver transplantation is debatable. We aimed to compare clinical outcomes of different induction protocols in liver transplant recipients.METHODS: Retrospective…2015 American Transplant Congress
Proteinuria as Non-Invasive Marker for Renal Allograft Histology and Survival: A Population-Based Study
University Hospitals Leuven, Leuven, Belgium.
Background:Proteinuria is routinely measured for assessment of renal allograft status, but its diagnostic value for transplant pathology and herewith-related prognostic value remain unclear.Methods:We included 1518…2015 American Transplant Congress
U.S. National Experience of Liver Transplantation Using Allografts from Octogenarian Donors
Surgery, Division of Transplantation, University of Illinois at Chicago, Chicago, IL.
IntroductionA continuous worsening of donor organ shortage has led to expand organ acceptance criteria. It is still theoretically possible to utilize hepatic allografts from donors…2015 American Transplant Congress
Predicting Graft Loss in a Population of Kidney Transplant Patients Diagnosed With ABMR/TG
ABMR is the main cause of late graft loss in kidney transplants. Our goal was to determine the variables most strongly predictive of graft loss…2015 American Transplant Congress
Outcomes Between ABO-Incompatible Living Donor Liver Transplantation (LDLT) and ABO-Compatible LDLT: A Matched Study
Backgrounds: Reports from several experienced centers suggested that outcomes of an ABO-incompatible (ABOi) living donor liver transplantation (LDLT) after rituximab and reduction of ABO antibodies…2015 American Transplant Congress
Renal Resistance Measured During Pulsatile Perfusion and Long-Term Kidney Transplant Outcomes
McGill University Health Center, Montreal, QC, Canada.
Background: Pulsatile perfusion (PP) has been shown to reduce the incidence of delayed graft function (DGF) and increase short- and long-term kidney transplant (KT) survival.…2015 American Transplant Congress
Donor Obesity Impact on Simultaneous Kidney-Pancreas Transplantation Outcomes
Background: Donor obesity has been reported as a risk factor for early pancreas allograft failure. The relationship between donor obesity and long-term pancreas allograft survival…2015 American Transplant Congress
Robotic Kidney Transplantation in Obese Recipients Can Lead to Superior Outcomes in Terms of Wound Infection and Graft Survival
Surgery, Division of Transplantation, University of Illinois at Chicago, Chicago, IL.
IntroductionTraditionally kidney transplantation (KT) in obese recipients has been associated with high rates of surgical site infections (SSI). We hypothesize that robotic kidney transplantation (RKT)…2015 American Transplant Congress
Cumulative Incidence, Risk Factors for and Impact on Survival of Severe Chronic Kidney Disease After Intestinal Transplantation: Analysis of the SRTR Database
Background: Patient and graft survival rates after intestinal transplantation (ITx) have improved. More ITx recipients achieve long-term survival and are at risk for severe chronic…
