The Neglectable Impact of Delayed Graft Function on Long-term Graft Survival in Kidneys Donated After Circulatory Death Associates With Superior Organ Resilience.

Annals of Surgery, 2019
OBJECTIVE To explore putative different impacts of delayed graft function (DGF) on long-term graft survival in kidneys donated after brain death (DBD) and circulatory death (DCD). BACKGROUND Despite a 3-fold higher incidence of DGF in DCD grafts, large

A prospective randomized trial of FK506-based immunosuppression after renal transplantation [PDF]

, 1995
A group of 204 adult patients was entered into a prospective, randomized trial comparing FK506/pred-nisone with FK506/azathioprine/prednisone after renal transplantation between August 1, 1991 and October 11,1992.

Toward a Sensible Single-antigen Bead Cutoff Based on Kidney Graft Survival

Transplantation, 2019
Background. There is no consensus in the literature on the interpretation of single-antigen bead positive for a specific HLA antibody. Methods. To inform the debate, we studied the relationship between various single-antigen bead positivity algorithms ...

HLA and cross-reactive antigen group matching for cadaver kidney allocation [PDF]

, 1997
Background. Allocation of cadaver kidneys by graded human leukocyte antigen (HLA) compatibility scoring arguably has had little effect on overall survival while prejudicing the transplant candidacy of African-American and other hard to match populations.

Impact of ureteral stricture and treatment choice on long‐term graft survival in kidney transplantation

American Journal of Transplantation, 2018
We aimed to evaluate the influence of urological complications occurring within the first year after kidney transplantation on long‐term patient and graft outcomes, and sought to examine the impact of the management approach of ureteral strictures on ...
