Angionephroscintigraphy in the evaluation of renal graft function [PDF]
The data generalized in this review characterize angionephroscintigraphy as a high informative technique for separate quantification of the perfusion, filtration and excretory function of a renal graft that is particularly important to be used for ...

PREDICTORS OF EARLY AND DELAYED GRAFT FUNCTION IN LIVE AND CADAVERIC RENAL TRANSPLANTATION [PDF]
Background: Kidney transplantation gives the best quality of life to chronic kidney disease patients and also increases longevity. Aim: Analysis of factors responsible for the early and delayed graft functioning in live and cadaver renal transplants ...

The influence of delayed graft function [PDF]
We study the incidence of delayed graft function (DGF) in a group of 3365 renal transplant recipient patients from various Spanish centres, its clinical consequences, and the evolution in time (transplants performed in 1990, 1994 and 1998) of the factors that determine its presence.

Role of excretory graft function for erythropoietin formation after renal transplantation [PDF]
To examine the role of renal excretory function for erythropoietin (EPO) formation we have determined the kinetics of plasma immunoreactive EPO (irEPO) in patients with end-stage renal disease undergoing renal allotransplantation (RTX).

Reduced CD40L expression on ex vivo activated CD4+T-lymphocytes from patients with excellent renal allograft function measured with a rapid whole blood flow cytometry procedure [PDF]
Background: The CD40-CD40L (CD154) costimulatory pathway plays a critical role in the pathogenesis of kidney allograft rejection. In renal transplant biopsies, CD4+ CD40L+ graft-infiltrating cells were detected during chronic rejection in contrast to ...

The Role of Pre- and Post-Transplant Hydration Status in Kidney Graft Recovery and One-Year Function
Background and Objectives: Early improvements to graft function are crucial for good outcomes in kidney transplantation (kTx). Various factors can influence early graft function.

Regulatory immune cells in transplantation. [PDF]
Immune regulation is fundamental to any immune response to ensure that it is appropriate for the perceived threat to the host. Following cell and organ transplantation, it is essential to control both the innate immune response triggered by the injured ...

Long-term visual and microperimetry outcomes following autologous retinal pigment epithelium choroid graft for neovascular age-related macular degeneration [PDF]
To describe the 2- to 4-year visual and microperimetry outcomes of autologous retinal pigment epithelium (RPE)-choroid graft in patients with neovascular age-related macular degeneration (AMD).In this retrospective cohort study, 12 patients with ...

Entering the Third Decade After Kidney Transplantation: Excellent Graft Function Refers to Superior Graft but Not Patient Survival [PDF]
Kidney transplant recipients (KTRs) with ultralong-term survival represent a growing, yet insufficiently studied patient cohort. In this single-center retrospective study, we analyzed 248 ultralong-term survivors (≥20 years).
