Associations of pre-transplant anemia management with post-transplant delayed graft function in kidney transplant recipients.
BACKGROUND Delayed graft function (DGF) complicates kidney allograft outcomes in the immediate post-transplantation period. We hypothesized that in hemodialysis patients more severe anemia, iron deficiency, the requirement for higher doses of erythropoietin-stimulating agents (ESA), or blood transfusions prior to transplantation are associated with higher risk of DGF. METHODS Linking five-yr ...
متن کاملAssociation of pre-transplant statin use with delayed graft function in kidney transplant recipients
BACKGROUND Administration of HMG-CoA reductase inhibitors (statins), prior to ischemia or prior to reperfusion has been shown to decrease ischemia-reperfusion renal injury in animal studies. It is unknown whether this protective effect is applicable to renal transplantation in humans. The aim of this study was to determine the relationship between prior statin use in renal transplant recipients...
متن کاملValidating Early Post-Transplant Outcomes Reported for Recipients of Deceased Donor Kidney Transplants.
BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES Data reported to the Organ Procurement and Transplantation Network (OPTN) are used in kidney transplant research, policy development, and assessment of center quality, but the accuracy of early post-transplant outcome measures is unknown. DESIGN, SETTING, PARTICIPANTS, & MEASUREMENTS The Deceased Donor Study (DDS) is a prospective cohort study at five transplant cent...
متن کاملDeceased donor neutrophil gelatinase-associated lipocalin and delayed graft function after kidney transplantation: a prospective study
INTRODUCTION Expanding the criteria for deceased organ donors increases the risk of delayed graft function (DGF) and complicates kidney transplant outcome. We studied whether donor neutrophil gelatinase-associated lipocalin (NGAL), a novel biomarker for acute kidney injury, could predict DGF after transplantation. METHODS We included 99 consecutive, deceased donors and their 176 kidney recipi...
متن کاملVery early steroid withdrawal or complete avoidance for kidney transplant recipients: a systematic review.
BACKGROUND The safety and efficacy of early steroid withdrawal or avoidance in patients receiving a kidney transplant (KT) are controversial. METHODS We performed a systematic review and a meta-analysis of the randomized controlled studies about steroid avoidance or withdrawal after a few days in patients receiving a KT and treated with antibody induction and cyclosporine (CsA) or tacrolimus ...
