Three‐month pancreas graft function significantly influences survival following simultaneous pancreas‐kidney transplantation in type 2 diabetes patients

American Journal of Transplantation, 2020
Successful simultaneous pancreas‐kidney transplantation (SPK) improves quality‐of‐life and prolongs kidney allograft and patient survival in type‐1 diabetic (T1DM) patients. However, the use of SPK in type‐2 diabetic (T2DM) patients remains limited.

Acute T cell-mediated rejection after administration of the BNT162b2 mRNA COVID-19 vaccine in a kidney transplant recipient: a case report

Korean Journal of Transplantation, 2021
The impact of the coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) vaccination on humoral and cellular immunity in transplant recipients remains unknown. We report the case of a 78-year-old kidney transplant recipient who experienced acute T cell-mediated rejection ...

Evaluating anti-thymocyte globulin induction doses for better allograft and patient survival in Asian kidney transplant recipients

Scientific Reports, 2023
Anti-thymocyte globulin (ATG) is currently the most widely prescribed induction regimen for preventing acute rejection after solid organ transplantation. However, the optimal dose of ATG induction regimen in Asian kidney recipients is unclear.

Incidental Ventricular Septal Defect (VSD) in the Donor of a Live Donor Liver Transplant: Tackle and Proceed [PDF]

Journal of Clinical and Diagnostic Research, 2016
Live Donor Liver Transplantation (LDLT) is an act of selflessness on the part of the donor who is subjected to a major hepatectomy. Ensuring safety and long-term well being of the donor is of utmost priority.

Pancreas transplants

Clinical Radiology, 2009
Cadaveric, whole pancreas transplantation has proved an effective therapy in the treatment of long-standing type 1 diabetes mellitus and is capable of achieving an insulin-independent eugyclaemic state. As a result, this procedure is being increasingly performed. However, the surgical procedure is complex and unfamiliar to many radiologists.

A Comparative Analysis of the Safety, Efficacy, and Cost of Islet Versus Pancreas Transplantation in Nonuremic Patients With Type 1 Diabetes

American Journal of Transplantation, 2016
Few current studies compare the outcomes of islet transplantation alone (ITA) and pancreas transplantation alone (PTA) for type 1 diabetes (T1D). We examined these two beta cell replacement therapies in nonuremic patients with T1D with respect to safety,

Laparoscopic Biopsies in Pancreas Transplantation

American Journal of Transplantation, 2017
As there is no precise laboratory test or imaging study for detection of pancreas allograft rejection, there is increasing interest in obtaining pancreas tissue for diagnosis.

Tumour–host interactions in Drosophila: mechanisms in the tumour micro‐ and macroenvironment

Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.
This review examines how tumour–host crosstalk takes place at multiple levels of biological organisation, from local cell competition and immune crosstalk to organism‐wide metabolic and physiological collapse. Here, we integrate findings from Drosophila melanogaster studies that reveal conserved mechanisms through which tumours hijack host systems to ...

Metastasis on pause: How dormant tumor cells stay hidden within the tumor microenvironment and evade immune surveillance

Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.
Dormant cancer cells can hide in distant organs for years, evading treatment and the immune system. This review highlights how signals from the surrounding tissue and immune environment keep these cells inactive or trigger their reawakening. Understanding these mechanisms may help develop therapies to eliminate or control dormant cells and prevent ...
