The difficulty in defining extended donor criteria for liver grafts: the Eurotransplant experience.
Donor criteria for liver grafts have been expanded because of organ shortage. Currently, no exact definitions for extended donor grafts have been established. The aim of this study was to analyze the impact of donor-specific risk factors, independent of recipient characteristics. In collaboration with Eurotransplant and European Liver Transplant Register, solely donor-specific parameters were c...
متن کاملImmunological aspects of antitumor photodynamic therapy outcome
Photodynamic therapy (PDT) of cancer is an efficient and promising therapeutic modality approved for the treatment of several types of tumors and non-malignant diseases. It involves administration of a non-toxic photosensitizer followed by illumination of the tumor site with a harmless visible light. A light activated photosensitizer can transfer its energy directly to molecular oxygen, leading...
متن کاملSome immunological aspects of liver function.
Although many aspects of hepatic function have been known and studied for a number of years, little is known about the immunological function of the liver. Chronic liver disease is often accompanied by an absolute increase in serum gamma globulin concentration. All the major immunoglobulin classes may be involved, and the elevated globulin is due to increased synthesis rather than decreased met...
متن کاملExtended-donor criteria liver allografts.
Extended-donor criteria liver allografts do not meet traditional criteria for transplantation. Although these organs offer immediate expansion of the donor pool, transplantation of extended-donor criteria liver allografts increases potential short- and long-term risk to the recipient. This risk may manifest as impaired allograft function or donor-transmitted disease. Guidelines defining this ca...
متن کاملTHE VALUE OF IMMUNOLOGICAL TESTS IN PREDICTING PREGNANCY OUTCOME
In addition to ultrasonographic monitoring of folliculogenesis, urinary luteinizing hormone testing, luteal phase endometrial biopsy, serum antiphospholipid antibodies, etc., immunologic tests are recently being used to evaluate reproductive disorders. In this study, sharing of HLA-A, B, C and DR antigens and the presence of antipaternal cytotoxic antibody (APCA) was assessed using microcyt...
