This study compares abdominal normothermic regional perfusion (aNRP) and normothermic machine perfusion (NMP) for kidney transplants from older donation after circulatory death (DCD) donors. Both techniques showed similar outcomes in delayed graft function, primary non‐function, acute rejection, and long‐term kidney function, suggesting they may ...

The immunogenicity of donor kidneys on NMP can be studied using monocyte‐derived dendritic cells. Incubation with perfusate showed an anti‐inflammatory dendritic cell phenotype and function that suggests the release of an anti‐inflammatory factor or factors during NMP. ABSTRACT Background The immunomodulatory activity of normothermic machine perfusion (

The MC‐fCAL score combines simple clinical variables and faecal calprotectin to predict microscopic colitis in patients with chronic watery diarrhoea. It showed promising diagnostic accuracy and may support future risk‐stratified diagnostic pathways by identifying patients with a low estimated probability or a strong suspicion of microscopic colitis ...
