Effect of donor hypertension on renal transplant recipients' blood pressure, allograft outcomes and survival: a systematic review and meta-analysis.

ABSTRACT:

Background

The effect of donor hypertension on the blood pressure of renal transplant recipients and the allograft outcomes are unclear. The aim of this study was to summarize the evidence about the effects of donor hypertension on renal transplant recipients' blood pressure, renal allograft outcomes and mortality.

Methods

Studies published from January 1960 to 31 January 2019 in English were identified through a systematic search of six databases; PubMed, Embase, SCOPUS, Web of Science, Cochrane Database of Systematic Reviews, and CINAHL. Eligible observational studies with at least 1 year of follow-up were selected. Pooled estimates were obtained using random effects model.

Results

We identified 15 papers from eight countries containing data on donor hypertension and renal transplantation carried out between 1963 and 2014. The median (range) follow-up period of the studies was 3.8 (1-11.9) years. The prevalence of post-transplant hypertension among recipients of a renal allograft from a normotensive donor range from 8 to 17.6%, while the prevalence of post-transplant hypertension among recipients of a renal allograft from a hypertensive donor range from 2.9 to 25%. Overall, pooled risk ratios (RR) indicated that donor hypertension was a risk factor for allograft failure or loss among renal transplant recipients (RR 1.31; 95% CI 1.06-1.63: P = 0.014). However, donor hypertension was not a risk factor for mortality among renal transplant recipients (RR 0.996; 95% CI 0.652-1.519: P = 0.984).

Conclusions

Donor hypertension increases the risk of post-transplant hypertension among renal transplant recipients and increases the risk of allograft failure, However, donor hypertension was not a risk factor for mortality among renal transplant recipients, Closer monitoring should be given to renal allograft recipients from hypertensive donors, and further well-designed studies are needed to expand our knowledge of the impact of donor hypertension on the survival of renal allograft recipients.

Project description:BackgroundTransplant glomerulopathy, a common glomerular lesion observed after kidney transplant that is associated with poor prognosis, is not a specific entity but rather the end stage of overlapping disease pathways. Its heterogeneity has not been precisely characterized to date.MethodsOur study included consecutive kidney transplant recipients from three centers in France and one in Canada who presented with a diagnosis of transplant glomerulopathy (Banff cg score ≥1 by light microscopy), on the basis of biopsies performed from January of 2004 through December of 2014. We used an unsupervised archetype analysis of comprehensive pathology findings and clinical, immunologic, and outcome data to identify distinct groups of patients.ResultsAmong the 8207 post-transplant allograft biopsies performed during the inclusion period, we identified 552 biopsy samples (from 385 patients) with transplant glomerulopathy (incidence of 6.7%). The median time from transplant to transplant glomerulopathy diagnosis was 33.18 months. Kidney allograft survival rates at 3, 5, 7, and 10 years after diagnosis were 69.4%, 57.1%, 43.3%, and 25.5%, respectively. An unsupervised learning method integrating clinical, functional, immunologic, and histologic parameters revealed five transplant glomerulopathy archetypes characterized by distinct functional, immunologic, and histologic features and associated causes and distinct allograft survival profiles. These archetypes showed significant differences in allograft outcomes, with allograft survival rates 5 years after diagnosis ranging from 88% to 22%. Based on those results, we built an online application, which can be used in clinical practice on the basis of real patients.ConclusionsA probabilistic data-driven archetype analysis approach applied in a large, well defined multicenter cohort refines the diagnostic and prognostic features associated with cases of transplant glomerulopathy. Reducing heterogeneity among such cases can improve disease characterization, enable patient-specific risk stratification, and open new avenues for archetype-based treatment strategies and clinical trials optimization.

Project description:ImportanceThe proportion of living donor kidney transplants from donors unrelated to their recipients is increasing in the US.ObjectiveTo examine the association between donor-recipient biological relationship and allograft survival after living donor kidney transplant.Design, setting, and participantsThis retrospective cohort study used Organ Procurement and Transplantation Network data on US adult living donor kidney transplants (n = 86 154) performed from January 1, 2000, to December 31, 2014, excluding cases in which recipients previously received a kidney transplant (n = 10 342) or key data were missing (n = 2832). Last follow-up was March 20, 2020.ExposuresDonor-recipient biological relationship.Main outcomes and measuresThe primary outcome was death-censored allograft failure. Univariate and multivariable time-to-event analyses were performed for death-censored allograft failure for the overall cohort, then separately for recipients with and without primary diagnoses of cystic kidney disease and for transplants from African American and non-African American donors.ResultsAmong the 72 980 transplant donor and recipients included in the study (median donor age, 41 years; interquartile range [IQR], 32-50 years; 43 990 [60%] female; 50 014 [69%] White), 43 174 (59%) donors and recipients were biologically related and 29 806 (41%) were unrelated. Donors related to their recipients were younger (median [IQR] age, 39 [31-48] vs 44 [35-52] years) and less likely to be female (24 848 [58%] vs 19 142 [64%]) or White (26 933 [62%] vs 23 081 [77%]). Recipients related to their donors were younger (median [IQR] age, 48 [34-58] vs 50 [40-58] years), more likely to be female (18 035 [42%] vs 10 530 [35%]), and less likely to have cystic kidney disease (2530 [6%] vs 4600 [15%]). Related pairs had fewer HLA mismatches overall (median [IQR], 3 [2-3] vs 5 [4-5]). After adjustment for HLA mismatches, donor and recipient characteristics, and transplant era, donor-recipient biological relationship was associated with higher death-censored allograft failure (hazard ratio, 1.05; 95% CI, 1.01-1.10; P = .03). When stratified by primary disease, this association persisted only for recipients without cystic kidney disease. When stratified by donor race, this association persisted only for transplants from African American donors.Conclusions and relevanceIn this cohort study, living donor kidney transplants from donors biologically related to their recipients had higher rates of allograft failure than transplants from donors unrelated to their recipients after HLA matching was accounted for. Further study is needed to determine which genetic or socioenvironmental factors are associated with this finding.
