The rejection that defies anti-rejection drugs. Chronic vascular rejection (allograft vasculopathy): The role of terminology and linguistic relativity [PDF]
arXiv, 2023 Solid organ transplantation has by now become a common medical procedure. Owing to the introduction of new immunosuppressive drugs, the allograft loss due to acute rejection has been reduced significantly over time. Tragically, the number of donor organs lost due to allograft vasculopathy (AV), generally named chronic vascular rejection or chronic ...

Different behaviour of BK-virus infection in liver transplant recipients [PDF]
, 2016 Polyomavirus BK (BKV) infects up to 90% of the general population. After primary infection, occurring early during childhood, a state of non-replicative infection is established in the reno-urinary tract, without complications for immunocompetent hosts ...

Adherence is associated with a favorable outcome after lung transplantation.
PLoS 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

Pneumonia, 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.

Frontiers 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.

Thoracic Ultrasound in Lung Transplantation—Insights in the Field
Life, 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.

Unraveling the Role of Allo-Antibodies and Transplant Injury. [PDF]
, 2016 Alloimmunity driving rejection in the context of solid organ transplantation can be grossly divided into mechanisms predominantly driven by either T cell-mediated rejection (TCMR) and antibody-mediated rejection (ABMR), though the co-existence of both ...

Shared features of endothelial dysfunction between sepsis and its preceding risk factors (aging and chronic disease) [PDF]
, 2018 Acute vascular endothelial dysfunction is a central event in the pathogenesis of sepsis,increasing vascular permeability, promoting activation of the coagulation cascade, tissue edema and compromising perfusion of vital organs. Aging and chronic diseases(hypertension,dyslipidaemia,diabetes mellitus,chronic kidney disease,cardiovascular disease ...

MicroRNAs Implicated in Dysregulation of Gene Expression Following Human Lung Transplantation [PDF]
Transl Respir Med. 2013; 1: 12, 2013 Lung transplantation remains the only viable treatment option for the majority of patients with advanced lung diseases. However, 5-year post-transplant survival rates remain low primarily secondary to chronic rejection. Novel insights from global gene expression profiles may provide molecular phenotypes and therapeutic targets to improve outcomes after
