Stewardship of Molecular Diagnostics in Transplant Viral Infections
ABSTRACT The transplant environment requires special considerations when testing for viral infections as immunosuppression results in atypical infection profiles. Microbes otherwise considered commensals or causing mild disease can lead to severe infections in transplant environments. Therefore, guidelines tend to recommend broader microbial testing in

HHV‐8/KSHV in Solid Organ Transplantation: Current Gaps of Knowledge and Future Directions
Risk mitigation strategies, including donors/recipients screening, DNAemia monitoring in recipients at risk, CNI‐to‐mTOR inhibitors switch, antivirals, and rituximab for KICS, may mitigate the impact of HHV‐8/KSHV infection in SOT. This review provides an update on KICS, identifies research gaps, and summarizes advances in screening and management ...
