Kidney Transplantation

Nursing Clinics of North America, 1989
The future of kidney transplantation lies in advancement in two areas: well-matched donors to recipients and immunosuppression. Improvement in the effectiveness of transplantation is dependent upon these two areas. The cadaver donor pool needs to be increased not only to allow every person waiting for transplant of a kidney, but to ensure a well ...

Kidneys for Transplantation

Journal of Health Politics, Policy and Law, 1981
A profound kidney shortage compromises the effective care of renal failure patients in the United States and other nations. This article discusses the need for kidneys, the procurement of live donor and cadaver organs, and strategies to increase organ donation. It suggests that the kidney shortage can be minimized and perhaps eliminated through the use

Hypertension in kidney transplantation

Klinische Wochenschrift, 1989
The prevalence of hypertension is approximately 50 percent in renal transplanted patients, even in the most recent series. Hypertension contributes to the cardiovascular complication observed in these patients. Hypertension is related to various mechanisms: renin release from the own remaining kidney(s), stenosis of the transplant artery, often chronic

HLA and kidney transplantation

Journal of Clinical Pathology, 2009
This article focuses on the immunogenetics, immunology, rejection and immunosuppression in kidney transplantation. HLA matching still affects outcome data, and HLA matching improves graft survival. Graft sources and related outcomes are discussed.

Hypertension and kidney transplantation

Current Opinion in Nephrology and Hypertension, 1986
Hypertension in kidney transplant patients is a common complication that affects long-term patient and allograft survival. Although multifactorial in nature, at least two causes can be corrected by surgical or radiologic intervention--stenosis and native kidney-associated hypertension.

Transplantation: Kidney, Kidney–Pancreas Transplant

2014
With in-depth understanding of transplant immunology, more sensitive assays have been developed for immunological risk assessment, crossmatch, and detection of donor-specific antibodies. The discovery of potent immunosuppressive drugs has successfully reduced the risk of acute rejection and graft loss from rejection.

Matchability in kidney transplantation

Tissue Antigens, 1988
The matchablity of a patient awaiting kidney transplantation is his propensity for being ‘well‐matched’. We present two methods for estimating matchability. It is commonly supposed that phenotype frequency is a good predictor of matchability. We show a correlation of only 0.3 between matchability and phenotype frequency using the definition of ‘well ...

Angiography of the Transplanted Kidney

Scandinavian Journal of Urology and Nephrology, 1968
Thirty angiographic examinations of transplanted kidneys were carried out in 24 patients.When the kidney function was satisfactory the angiographic appearances were characterized by a rapid passage of contrast medium, good filling of the peripheral branches, and a dense nephrographic phase with sharp delineation between the medulla and cortex.In ...
