BACKGROUND: Plaque composition and wall shear stress (WSS) magnitude act as well-established players in coronary plaque progression. However, WSS per se does not completely capture the mechanical stimulus to which endothelium is subjected, since endothelial cells experience changes spatiotemporal configuration on luminal surface. This study explores profile lipid content signatures of progression identify novel biomarkers atherosclerosis. METHODS: Thirty-seven patients with acute syndrome...
P225 The ever growing number of so called marginal donors (MDs) and the elderly uremics request for graft are features today scenario renal transplantation. policy an “old old” allocation – i.e. offering kidneys from MDs to candidates seems fit well with this condition, as enhance a maximal kidney utilization. Aims: aim study is present two year results protocol we adopted in our Centre order avoid nephrotoxic effect calcineurin-inhibitors (CNIs) whose impact could be magnified milieu...
A 59-year-old man with diabetes mellitus Type II, arterial hypertension and depressive disorder was hospitalized due to unexplained severe inebriation followed by sedation. Regular medications consisted of metformin 1500 mg, enalapril 20 mg paroxetine mg. Blood tests showed a creatinine 0.9 mg/dL (79 μmol/L), glucose 110 (6.1 mmol/L) potassium 6.4 mmol/L. Blood gas test pronounced metabolic acidosis, pH 7.04, bicarbonate 3 mmol/L, PCO2 10 mmHg, lactic acid 4.8 Na 145 chloride 105.4 mmol/L...
P381 Worldwide organ shortage has prompted the nephrological community to extensively use so called “marginal” donors for renal transplantation; ESRD elderly patients, who ask being inserted in a transplantation waiting list, have dramatically increased over past decades; so, previous age limits should be reviewed. Aims: evaluate results of policy free (since 1987) acceptance recipients aged >65 yrs. Methods: 70 cadaveric transplants performed from 05/1987 01/2004 are evaluated (dual 21.4%,...
P392 The issue of transplantation (Tx) from marginal donors (MDs) is closely related with the problem inadequacy donated nephron mass. consequence this in recipient may be hyperfiltration which, turn, cause a glomerular filtration rate greater than expected. Aim: aim study to evaluate whether there any difference between single (STx) and dual (DTx) transplants MDs about development their function (calculated creatinine clearance Cockroft formula = COCK) over time, retrospectively compared...
P729 Aims: When transplanting kidneys from marginal donors (MDs) with an “old for old” allocation, immunosuppression should be tailored either on the recipient or donor‘s characteristics, because elderly recipients are more fragile and susceptible to nephrotoxic injuries. A calcineurin-inhibitors (CIN) free strategy during induction phase may a good solution but one cannot deny existence of greater risk acute rejection. As maintenance tacrolimus (TAC) increases diabetes occurence in...
