Comparison of mortality in all patients on dialysis, patients on dialysis awaiting transplantation, and recipients of a first cadaveric transplant.

New England Journal of Medicine, 1999
BACKGROUND AND METHODS The extent to which renal allotransplantation - as compared with long-term dialysis - improves survival among patients with end-stage renal disease is controversial, because those selected for transplantation may have a lower base ...

Predicting Kidney Transplant Survival using Multiple Feature Representations for HLAs [PDF]

Proceedings of the 19th International Conference on Artificial Intelligence in Medicine (2021) 51-60, 2021
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 ...

Letermovir Prophylaxis for Cytomegalovirus in Hematopoietic‐Cell Transplantation

New England Journal of Medicine, 2017
Background Cytomegalovirus (CMV) infection remains a common complication after allogeneic hematopoietic‐cell transplantation. Letermovir is an antiviral drug that inhibits the CMV–terminase complex.

GSH Attenuates Organ Injury and Improves Function after Transplantation of Fatty Livers [PDF]

, 2010
Ischemia-reperfusion injury (IRI) is increased after transplantation of steatotic livers. Since those livers are increasingly used for transplantation, protective strategies must be developed. Reactive oxygen species (ROS) play a key role in hepatic IRI.

The Clinical Impact of the C0/D Ratio and the CYP3A5 Genotype on Outcome in Tacrolimus Treated Kidney Transplant Recipients

Frontiers in Pharmacology, 2020
Tacrolimus is metabolized by CYP3A4 and CYP3A5 enzymes. Patients expressing CYP3A5 (in Caucasian patients about 15% of the population but more frequent in African Americans and Asians) have a dose requirement that is around 50% higher than non-expressers

Myeloablative Autologous Stem‐Cell Transplantation for Severe Scleroderma

New England Journal of Medicine, 2018
BACKGROUND Despite current therapies, diffuse cutaneous systemic sclerosis (scleroderma) often has a devastating outcome. We compared myeloablative CD34+ selected autologous hematopoietic stem‐cell transplantation with immunosuppression by means of 12 ...
