Urine Immunocytology as a Noninvasive Diagnostic Tool for Acute Kidney Rejection: a Single Center Experience [PDF]
, 2010 Renal biopsy is a gold standard for establishing diagnosis of acute rejection of the renal allograft. However, being invasive, renal biopsy has potential significant complications and contraindications.

A Remark on the Rigidity of Delaunay Triangulated Plane [PDF]
arXiv, 2022 In \cite{Wu22}, under the uniformly acute condition, Wu showed the rigidity of the geodesic triangulated plane under Luo's discrete conformality. In this article, by modifying Wu's proof, we improve this result by weakening the uniformly acute condition to the uniformly Delaunay condition.

Fk506 “rescue” for resistant rejection of renal allografts under primary cyclosporine immunosuppression [PDF]
, 1994 Seventy-seven patients with ongoing acute rejection on initial CsA therapy were converted to FK506 to attempt graft salvage. Fifty-nine patients had undergone primary transplantation and 18 had been retransplanted; there were 52 cadaveric and 25 living ...

Auditing for Human Expertise [PDF]
arXiv, 2023 High-stakes prediction tasks (e.g., patient diagnosis) are often handled by trained human experts. A common source of concern about automation in these settings is that experts may exercise intuition that is difficult to model and/or have access to information (e.g., conversations with a patient) that is simply unavailable to a would-be algorithm.

The molecular immunology of acute rejection: an overview
Transplant Immunology, 1993 Abstract Transplantation immunology began as an empirical science but can now take its place as a discipline with a strong theoretical and molecular basis. The Laws of Transplantation, formulated at the beginning of this century by Little and Tyzzer, can be paraphrased as ‘Isografts succeed; allografts fail’.

An Analysis of Early Renal Transplant Protocol Biopsies - the High Incidence of Subclinical Tubulitis [PDF]
, 2001 To investigate the possibility that we have been underestimating the true incidence of acute rejection, we began to perform protocol biopsies after kidney transplantation. This analysis looks at the one-week biopsies. Between March 1 and October 1, 1999,

Stratified Adversarial Robustness with Rejection [PDF]
arXiv, 2023 Recently, there is an emerging interest in adversarially training a classifier with a rejection option (also known as a selective classifier) for boosting adversarial robustness. While rejection can incur a cost in many applications, existing studies typically associate zero cost with rejecting perturbed inputs, which can result in the rejection of ...

Expression of CD40 ligand, interferon-gamma and Fas ligand genes in endomyocardial biopsies of human cardiac allografts: correlation with acute rejection [PDF]
, 2001 The purpose of the present study was to investigate the expression (mRNA) of CD40 ligand (CD40L), interferon-gamma (IFN-gamma) and Fas ligand (FasL) genes in human cardiac allografts in relation to the occurrence of acute cardiac allograft rejection as ...
