Immunopathogenesis of corneal graft rejection [PDF]
The most common cause of corneal graft failure is corneal graft rejection (CGR). Although cornea is one of the immune-privileged sites, it can still get a rejection episode due to a breach in its natural protective mechanism. Both anatomical and structural properties of cornea and anterior chamber contribute toward its immune tolerance.

Graft rejection in component keratoplasty [PDF]
Among the various indications for keratoplasty, failed graft is one of the commonest indications in many published series. It is well known that the major cause of graft failure is endothelial rejection. In the last two decades, there has been a major paradigm shift in the surgical management of corneal diseases, and component keratoplasty has emerged ...

Management and prevention of corneal graft rejection [PDF]
The management of an episode of corneal graft rejection (CGR) is primarily by corticosteroids. Immunomodulators are useful for long-term immunosuppression and in dealing with cases of high-risk (HR) corneal grafts. The classical signs of CGR following penetrating keratoplasty (PKP) include rejection line, anterior chamber (AC) reaction, and graft edema.

Machine learning methods to identify risk factors for corneal graft rejection in keratoconus [PDF]
Machine learning can be used to identify risk factors associated with graft rejection after corneal transplantation for keratoconus. The study included all keratoconus eyes that underwent primary corneal transplantation from 1994 to 2021.

Circulating donor-derived cell-free DNA as a marker for rejection after lung transplantation
ObjectiveRecently, circulating donor-derive cell free DNA (dd-cfDNA) has gained growing attention in the field of solid organ transplantation. The aim of the study was to analyze circulating dd-cfDNA levels in graft rejection, ACR and AMR separately for ...

Background: Renal allograft rejection is a major cause of graft dysfunction, and it is a predictor of long-term allograft loss. Advances in immunosuppression have decreased the influence of acute rejection on graft survival.

Diagnostic value of miRNA-101 and miRNA-27 in acute heart transplant rejection
Objective: to determine the diagnostic value of miRNA-101 and miRNA-27 expression levels for acute hearttransplant rejection. Materials and methods. The study enrolled 46 heart recipients, among whom were 36 men (78.3%); the average age of recipients was
