Posttransplant renal allograft dysfunction – A retrospective observational study
Background: In India, a large number of end-stage renal disease patients are undergoing renal replacement therapy. A successful renal transplantation relives the burden of dialysis with improved quality of life and a productive life thereafter. This also

A Latent Space Model for HLA Compatibility Networks in Kidney Transplantation [PDF]
Kidney transplantation is the preferred treatment for people suffering from end-stage renal disease. Successful kidney transplants still fail over time, known as graft failure; however, the time to graft failure, or graft survival time, can vary significantly between different recipients.

Background: kidney transplantation is a routine therapy in current medical practice. Survival of the renal graft varies depending on clinical and epidemiological factors, related to the donor, the organ preservation conditions and the recipient ...

Quantitative Methods for Optimizing Patient Outcomes in Liver Transplantation [PDF]
Liver transplantation continues to be the gold standard for treating patients with end-stage liver diseases. However, despite the huge success of liver transplantation in improving patient outcomes, long term graft survival continues to be a major problem.

Over Ten-Year Kidney Graft Survival Determinants
Kidney graft survival has been mainly evaluated using an up to 10-year threshold. Instead, in this study our aim was to evaluate predictive variables that impact long-term kidney graft survival (≥10 years).

Predicting Kidney Transplant Survival using Multiple Feature Representations for HLAs [PDF]
Kidney transplantation can significantly enhance living standards for people suffering from end-stage renal disease. A significant factor that affects graft survival time (the time until the transplant fails and the patient requires another transplant) for kidney transplantation is the compatibility of the Human Leukocyte Antigens (HLAs) between the ...

The Effect of Donor Gender on Graft Survival [PDF]
Differences in actuarial graft survival according to donor gender have been reported for renal allografts and for cardiac and hepatic allografts, but for the latter in small series with limited biostatistical power. Using the large database of the Collaborative Transplant Study (CTS), this study is an evaluation of graft survival according to donor and

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.
