  1. Case report: A kidney transplant patient with mild COVID‐19

    In conclusion, we presented a kidney transplant patient with a mild form of SARS‐CoV‐2 infection. We think that the general risk factors for severe illness are also applicable to transplant patients. However, large‐scale studies are needed to define or confirm the risk factors for the prognosis of COVID‐19 in transplant patients.

  2. Results of Two Cases of Pig-to-Human Kidney Xenotransplantation

    Case 2. A 60-year-old man had received a kidney transplant 10 years previously for the treatment of end-stage kidney disease because of polycystic kidney disease. The donor was an accident victim. Donor and recipient were CMV seropositive at the time of transplant, but there was no evidence of clinical disease from CMV up to the present.

  5. Recent Advances and Clinical Outcomes of Kidney Transplantation

    Such studies offer creative means that can be used to find immunosuppressive agents, which can effectively overcome critical sensitization, prevent the creation of anti-HLA antibodies, treat chronic active ABMR, and reduce non-immunological complications following kidney transplantation, such as the recurrence of primary kidney disease and ...

  6. Case Reports in Transplantation

    Case Reports in Transplantation is an open access journal that publishes case reports and case series focusing on novel techniques as well as associated side effects and complications of heart, lung, kidney, liver, pancreas and stem cell transplantation. As part of Wiley's Forward Series, this journal offers a streamlined, faster publication ...

  7. Kidney Transplant: Neil's Story

    For 15 years, Neil Emmott told few people about his polycystic kidney disease diagnosis. When it came time for a transplant, he turned to Johns Hopkins, friends and the National Kidney Registry. A paired exchange program resulted in kidneys for Neil and seven other people. Neil Emmott, 55, is a husband, father of 12- and 8-year-old daughters ...

  8. Global case studies for chronic kidney disease/end-stage kidney disease

    Abstract. The prevalence of chronic kidney disease and its risk factors is increasing worldwide, and the rapid rise in global need for end-stage kidney disease care is a major challenge for health systems, particularly in low- and middle-income countries. Countries are responding to the challenge of end-stage kidney disease in different ways ...

  9. Frontiers

    In a single-center case series, 3 patients with ESKD and hypo-gammaglobulinemia on IVIG treatment, received a kidney transplant with minor complications. Among them, a young woman with SLE, 6 months after transplantation suffered from extensive herpetic skin infection and oral and vaginal candidiasis that apart from antiviral and antifungal ...

  10. Long-Term Survival after Kidney Transplantation

    The survival advantages of transplantation over long-term dialysis are generally well described, provided a given patient with end-stage kidney disease is deemed a candidate for a transplant. 1,2 ...

  11. What have we learned about how to prevent and treat antibody-mediated

    Antibody-mediated rejection (ABMR) in kidney transplantation is a major cause of late graft loss, and despite all efforts to date the "standard of care" remains plasmapheresis, IVIg, and steroids, which itself is based on low quality evidence. This review focuses on the risk factors leading to memory and de novo donor-specific antibody (DSA)-associated ABMR, the optimal prevention ...

  12. Cost-benefit analysis of kidney transplant in patients with chronic

    Chronic kidney disease (CKD) is a health problem due to its increasing prevalence and imposes a significant economic burden on the health system. This study aimed to analyze the cost-benefit of kidney transplantation through the valuation of patients with ESRD for a kidney transplant and its costs to help decide this regard. This study was a descriptive-analytical and cross-sectional ...

    This case study examines the history and current state of care delivery, reimbursement, and measurement for the UCLA Kidney Transplant Program, among the nation's highest-volume transplant providers. The UCLA Kidney Program is an interdisciplinary unit that involves clinicians from multiple departments and engages in continuous care management ...

  14. Kidney Transplant Clinical Trials

    The objectives of this study are to establish the dynamic changes in iron metabolism and circulating iron-regulatory immune cells in kidney transplant infection, and to determine quantitative changes in tissue levels of hepcidin and iron-regulatory macrophages in transplant biopsy and compare pyelonephritis case with control.

  15. Educational Case: Kidney Transplant Rejection

    Additional serum studies show that patient does not have circulating cytomegalovirus or BK polyomavirus in the blood. Ultrasound imaging with duplex Doppler study is performed on the allograft kidney (Figure 1) and demonstrates patent renal vasculature with a normal flow rate. There is no evidence of arterial stenosis, venous thrombosis ...

  16. Survival Benefit with Kidney Transplants from HLA-Incompatible Live

    In the present study, receipt of a kidney transplant from an incompatible live donor was associated with a significant survival benefit as compared with the other options available to sensitized ...
