Lung Transplantation and the Era of the Sensitized Patient

open access: yesFrontiers in Immunology, 2021
Long term outcomes in lung transplant are limited by the development of chronic lung allograft dysfunction (CLAD). Within the past several decades, antibody-mediated rejection (AMR) has been recognized as a risk factor for CLAD.

Acute fibrinous and organising pneumonia following lung transplantation is associated with severe allograft dysfunction and poor outcome: a case series

open access: yesPneumonia, 2015
  Acute fibrinous and organising pneumonia (AFOP) is a histopathologic variant of acute lung injury that has been associated with infection and inflammatory disorders and has been reported as a complication of lung transplantation.

Adherence is associated with a favorable outcome after lung transplantation.

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2019
Non-adherence to therapy is associated with impaired outcome in solid organ allograft recipients. Outcome data are limited after lung transplantation. In a single-center cohort study, adherence was assessed in 427 patients undergoing lung transplantation

Myeloid-Derived Suppressor Cells Are Increased in Lung Transplant Recipients and Regulated by Immunosuppressive Therapy

open access: yesFrontiers in Immunology, 2022
Lung transplantation remains as a primary treatment for end-stage lung diseases. Although remarkable improvement has been achieved due to the immunosuppressive protocols, long-term survival for lung transplant recipients (LTR) is still limited.

Coronavirus infection and chronic lung allograft dysfunction: a retrospective cohort study

open access: yesSwiss Medical Weekly
INTRODUCTION: Long-term survival in lung transplant recipients is limited by chronic lung allograft dysfunction, which can be triggered by respiratory tract infections. STUDY AIMS: We investigated the incidence of chronic lung allograft dysfunction in

Using a combination of biomarkers to monitor allograft dysfunction in lung transplant recipients

open access: yesFrontiers in Transplantation
Allograft dysfunction is a major limitation of survival in organ transplant recipients including those who have received lung transplantation. Early detection of allograft dysfunction is thus crucial to improve outcomes in these patients.

Thoracic Ultrasound in Lung Transplantation—Insights in the Field

open access: yesLife, 2023
The use of thoracic ultrasound (TUS) is a novel and dynamic diagnostic and monitoring modality that has shown remarkable advances within the last decade, with several published papers investigating its role within the field of lung transplantation.

Humoral immune responses mediate the development of a restrictive phenotype of chronic lung allograft dysfunction

open access: yesJCI Insight, 2020
Understanding the distinct pathogenic mechanisms that culminate in allograft fibrosis and chronic graft failure is key in improving outcomes after solid organ transplantation.
