Background Oxidative stress is one of the most important components ischemia-reperfusion process after kidney transplantation (KTx) and increases with graft dysfunction. Methods This prospective study was conducted on 40 consecutive KTx recipients to evaluate time-dependent changes in oxidative stress-related parameters within first week assess their performance predicting delayed function (DGF=dialysis requirement during initial posttransplant week) at 1 year. Blood samples were collected...
Urinary neutrophil gelatinase-associated lipocalin (uNGAL) has been suggested as potential early marker of delayed graft function (DGF) following kidney transplantation (KTx). We conducted a prospective study in 40 consecutive KTx recipients to evaluate serial changes uNGAL within the first week after and assess its performance predicting DGF (dialysis requirement during initial posttransplant week) throughout year. Urine samples were collected on post-KTx days 0, 1, 2, 4, 7. Linear mixed...
Rocha MJ, Ferreira S, Martins LS, Almeida M, Dias L, Pedroso Henriques AC, R, Cabrita A. Cost analysis of renal replacement therapy by transplant in a system bundled payment dialysis. Abstract: Renal therapies (RRT) for patients with end‐stage failure represent high burden on European countries' healthcare budget. Our purpose was to report and compare the costs RRT hemodialysis (HD) or peritoneal dialysis (PD) transplantation (RT) after introduction We analyzed average annual cost RT public...
Abstract Simultaneous pancreas‐kidney transplantation (SPKT) is the best treatment for selected individuals with type 1 diabetes mellitus and end‐stage renal disease. Despite advances in surgical techniques, donor recipient selection, immunosuppressive therapies, SPKT remains a complex procedure associated complications adverse consequences. We conducted retrospective study that included 263 procedures performed between May 2000, December 2022. A total of 65 patients (25%) required at least...
Abstract HLA donor‐specific antibodies developed de novo after transplant remain a major cause of chronic allograft dysfunction. Our study main purpose was to determine whether MM, assessed traditionally and by total AbVer eplet mismatch load (EptMM EpvMM) with HLAMatchMaker, had impact on dn DSA development living donor kidney transplantation (LDKT). We retrospectively analysed cohort 96 LDKT between 2008 2017 performed in Hospital Santo António. Seven patients DSA‐II EpvMM EptMM were...
From December 2019 to March 2020, China was the epicenter of SARS-CoV-2 infection pandemic, but from that moment on, Europe surpassed in number new cases and deaths related this novel viral respiratory infection. The emergence world pandemic is particularly important for solid organ transplant recipients, who might have an increased risk mortality, not only due their chronic immunosuppression status, also cardiovascular correlates with several years kidney disease. To extent there still a...
Introdução: Considerando o aumento da incidência de diabetes pós-transplante e elevado impacto cardiovascular entre os receptores transplantes, este facto faz com que uso inibidores SGLT2 nesse grupo seja atrativo devido aos seus benefícios cardiovasculares renoprotetores. No entanto, há escassez evidência nos transplante renal a preocupações possíveis danos ao enxerto efeitos adversos. Métodos: Este estudo retrospectivo foi elaborado para avaliar eficácia segurança dos em (KTRs). O foco...
Objetivos: A incidência de diabetes pós-transplante e o aumento do risco cardiovascular entre os receptores transplante estão em ascensão. Os agonistas receptor peptídeo semelhante ao glucagon têm potencial mitigar efeitos dos medicamentos imunossupressores, abordando tanto a hiperglicemia quanto peso, que torna atrativos para uso nesta população, dadas as suas vantagens cardiovasculares renoprotetoras. No entanto, evidência atual é insuficiente sobre sua eficácia renal diabéticos (RTRD)....
Kidney graft survival has been mainly evaluated using an up to 10-year threshold. Instead, in this study our aim was evaluate predictive variables that impact long-term kidney (≥10 years). We enrolled 892 patients analysis: 638 with functioning at 10 years PT and 254 failure (considering patient death a <10 as failure). Between groups comparisons were done Mann-Whitney chi-square test. To determine independent for multivariate-adjusted logistic regression performed. Significant predictors...
