Risk Factors of Rejection in Renal Transplant Recipients: A Narrative Review

Journal of Clinical Medicine, 2022
Multiple factors influence graft rejection after kidney transplantation. Pre-operative factors affecting graft function and survival include donor and recipient characteristics such as age, gender, race, and immunologic compatibility.

Characterization of intra-graft B cells during renal allograft rejection [PDF]

, 2008
Intra-graft CD20+ B-cell clusters are found during acute rejection of renal allografts and correlate with graft recovery following rejection injury. Here using archived kidney tissue we conducted immunohistochemical studies to measure specific subsets of

Unexplained Graft Dysfunction after Heart Transplantation—Role of Novel Molecular Expression Test Score and QTc-Interval: A Case Report

Cardiology Research and Practice, 2010
In the current era of immunosuppressive medications there is increased observed incidence of graft dysfunction in the absence of known histological criteria of rejection after heart transplantation.

HLA Antibody Incompatible Renal Transplantation: Long-term Outcomes Similar to Deceased Donor Transplantation

Transplantation Direct, 2021
Background. HLA incompatible renal transplantation still remains one of best therapeutic options for a subgroup of patients who are highly sensitized and difficult to match but not much is known about its long-term graft and patient survival.

Time- and Space-Modulated Raman Signals in Graphene-based Optical Cavities [PDF]

Journal of Optics, vol. 15, 114010 (2013), 2013
We present fabrication and optical characterization of micro-cavities made of multilayer graphene (MLG) cantilevers clamped by metallic electrodes and suspended over Si/Si02 substrate. Graphene cantilevers act as a semi-transparent mirrors closing an air-wedge optical cavity.

Graft-derived cell-free DNA, a noninvasive early rejection and graft damage marker in liver transplantation: A prospective, observational, multicenter cohort study

PLoS Medicine, 2017
Background Graft-derived cell-free DNA (GcfDNA), which is released into the blood stream by necrotic and apoptotic cells, is a promising noninvasive organ integrity biomarker.

Intestinal transplantation in composite visceral grafts or alone [PDF]

, 1992
Under FK 506-based immunosuppression, the entire cadaver small bowel except for a few proximal and distal centimeters was translated to 17 randomly matched patients, of whom two had antigraft cytotoxic antibodies (positive cross-match).

Use of donor serum to prevent passive transfer of hyperacute rejection [PDF]

, 1994
Organ transplantation in presensitized recipients continues to be contraindicated for heart and kidney recipients due to the risk of hyperacute rejection, which has no known treatment at this time.

Sliding friction between an elastomer network and a grafted polymer layer: the role of cooperative effects [PDF]

, 2004
We study the friction between a flat solid surface where polymer chains have been end-grafted and a cross-linked elastomer at low sliding velocity. The contribution of isolated grafted chains' penetration in the sliding elastomer has been early identified as a weakly velocity dependent pull-out force. Recent experiments have shown that the interactions

Bipartite Graft III: General Case [PDF]

arXiv, 2021
This paper is a sequel of our previous paper (N. Kita: Bipartite graft {II}: Cathedral decomposition for combs. arXiv preprint arXiv:2101.06678, 2021). In our previous paper, a graft analogue of the Dulmage-Mendelsohn decomposition has been introduced for comb bipartite grafts.
