Project description:Delayed graft function (DGF) is a frequently observed complication following kidney transplantation (KT). Our prior research revealed dynamic shifts in salivary microbiota post-KT with immediate graft function (IGF), yet its behavior during DGF remains unexplored. Five recipients with DGF and 35 recipients with IGF were enrolled. Saliva samples were collected during the perioperative period, and 16S rRNA gene sequencing was performed. The salivary microbiota of IGFs changed significantly and gradually stabilized with the recovery of renal function. The salivary microbiota composition of DGFs was significantly different from that of IGFs, although the trend of variation appeared to be similar to that of IGFs. Salivary microbiota that differed significantly between patients with DGF and IGF at 1 day after transplantation were able to accurately distinguish the two groups in the randomForest algorithm (accuracy = 0.8333, sensitivity = 0.7778, specificity = 1, and area under curve = 0.85), with Selenomonas playing an important role. Bacteroidales (Spearman's r = - 0.4872 and p = 0.0293) and Veillonella (Spearmen's r = - 0.5474 and p = 0.0125) were significantly associated with the serum creatinine in DGF patients. Moreover, the significant differences in overall salivary microbiota structure between DGF and IGF patients disappeared upon long-term follow-up. This is the first study to investigate the dynamic changes in salivary microbiota in DGFs. Our findings suggested that salivary microbiota was able to predict DGF in the early stages after kidney transplantation, which might help the perioperative clinical management and early-stage intervention of kidney transplant recipients. KEY POINTS: • Salivary microbiota on the first day after KT could predict DGF. • Alterations in salivary taxa after KT are related to recovery of renal function.

Project description:BackgroundPaediatric kidney transplantation has an increased risk of surgical and vascular complications, with intensive care monitoring required postoperatively. This study aimed to determine if perioperative management affects early graft function in living donor paediatric kidney transplantation.MethodsClinical data was extracted from the electronic medical record for living donor kidney transplants at two paediatric centres covering the state of New South Wales (NSW), Australia from 2009 to 2021. Estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) of 7 days and 1-month post-transplant were calculated as measures of early graft function.ResultsThirty-nine eligible patients (female n (%) 13 (33%)) with a median (IQR) age of 6 (3-9) years and pre-transplant eGFR of 7 (6-10) mL/min/1.73 m2 were analysed. Mean (SD) central venous pressure (CVP) after revascularisation was 11 (4) mmHg. Intraoperatively, mean volume of fluid administered was 84 (39) mL/kg, and 34 (87%) patients received vasoactive agents. Average systolic blood pressure (BP) in the first 24-h post-transplant was 117 (12) mmHg. Postoperatively, median volume of fluid administered in the first 24 h was 224 (159-313) mL/kg, and 17 (44%) patients received vasoactive agents. Median eGFR 7 days and 1-month post-transplant were 115 (79-148) and 103 (83-115) mL/min/1.73 m2, respectively. Linear regression analyses demonstrated that after adjusting for age, the average CVP after revascularisation and average systolic BP in the first 24-h post-transplant were not associated with eGFR in the first month post-transplant.ConclusionsTargeted intraoperative and postoperative fluid and haemodynamic characteristics were achieved but did not correlate with early graft function.

Project description:Uromodulin and microRNAs (miRNAs) have recently been investigated as potential biomarkers for kidney graft associated pathology and outcome, with a special focus on biomarkers indicating specific disease processes and kidney graft survival. The study's aim was to determine whether expression of serum uromodulin concentration and selected miRNAs might be related to renal function in kidney transplant recipients (KTRs). The uromodulin concentration and expression of six selected miRNAs (miR-29c, miR-126, miR-146a, miR-150, miR-155, and miR-223) were determined in the serum of 100 KTRs with stable graft function and chronic kidney disease of all five stages. Kidney graft function was estimated with routine parameters (creatinine, urea, cystatin C, and Chronic Kidney Disease Epidemiology Collaboration study equations) and precisely measured using chromium-51 labelled ethylenediaminetetraacetic-acid clearance. The selected miRNAs were shown to be independent of kidney graft function, indicating their potential as biomarkers of associated kidney graft disease processes. In contrast, the serum uromodulin level depended entirely on kidney graft function and thus reflected functioning tubules rather than any specific kidney graft injury. However, decreased concentrations of serum uromodulin can be observed in the early course of tubulointerstitial injury, thereby suggesting its useful role as an accurate, noninvasive biomarker of early (subclinical) kidney graft injury.

Project description:ObjectivePerioperative change of hemoglobin concentration (Hb) was associated with acute kidney injury in patients who underwent non-cardiac surgery, but has never been investigated in kidney transplant patients. This study aimed to observe the effects of perioperative Hb change on early graft function in kidney transplant recipients.ResultsA total of 269 kidney transplant patients were enrolled, of whom 98 (36.4%) developed poor early graft function (PEGF), and 171 (63.6%) had immediate graft function. Comparing two groups, patients with PEGF had a greater decremental change of Hb (-1.60 [-2.38,-0.83] vs. -0.70 [-1.35,0.20] g/dL, respectively; p < 0.001). A Hb cut-point of -1.35 g/dL was obtained from ROC analysis. Multivariate analysis showed that perioperative Hb decrement greater than 1.35 g/dL was an independent risk of PEGF (adjusted OR of 2.52, 95% CI 1.11-5.72; p = 0.026). Subgroup analysis revealed deceased donor kidney transplant (DDKT; n = 126) (adjusted OR of 2.89, 95% CI 1.11-7.55; p = 0.029), but not living donor kidney transplantation (LDKT; n = 143) (adjusted OR of 1.68, 95% CI 0.23-12.15; p = 0.606), was influenced by the perioperative Hb decrement. In conclusion, this study suggests that decremental change in perioperative Hb greater than 1.35 g/dL may serve as a modifiable factor of PEGF in DDKT.

Project description:Delayed graft function after kidney transplantation is common and increases morbidity and health care costs. There is evidence that endotrophin, a specific fragment of pro-collagen type VI, promotes the inflammatory response in kidney diseases. We tested the hypothesis that pretransplant endotrophin in kidney transplant recipients may be associated with the risk of delayed graft function. Pretransplant plasma endotrophin was assessed using an enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay in three independent cohorts with 806 kidney transplant recipients. The primary outcome was delayed graft function, i.e., the necessity of at least one dialysis session within one-week posttransplant. In the discovery cohort median pretransplant plasma endotrophin was higher in 32 recipients (12%) who showed delayed graft function when compared to 225 recipients without delayed graft function (58.4 ng/mL [IQR 33.4-69.0]; N = 32; vs. 39.5 ng/mL [IQR 30.6-54.5]; N = 225; P = 0.009). Multivariable logistic regression, fully adjusted for confounders showed, that pretransplant plasma endotrophin as a continuous variable was independently associated with delayed graft function in both validation cohorts, odds ratio 2.09 [95% CI 1.30-3.36] and 2.06 [95% CI 1.43-2.97]. Pretransplant plasma endotrophin, a potentially modifiable factor, was independently associated with increased risk of delayed graft function and may be a new avenue for therapeutic interventions.

Project description:Increased utilization of suboptimal organs in response to organ shortage has resulted in increased incidence of delayed graft function (DGF) after transplantation. Although presumed increased costs associated with DGF are a deterrent to the utilization of these organs, the financial burden of DGF has not been established. We used the Premier Healthcare Database to conduct a retrospective analysis of healthcare resource utilization and costs in kidney transplant patients (n = 12 097) between 1/1/2014 and 12/31/2018. We compared cost and hospital resource utilization for transplants in high-volume (n = 8715) vs low-volume hospitals (n = 3382), DGF (n = 3087) vs non-DGF (n = 9010), and recipients receiving 1 dialysis (n = 1485) vs multiple dialysis (n = 1602). High-volume hospitals costs were lower than low-volume hospitals ($103 946 vs $123 571, P < .0001). DGF was associated with approximately $18 000 (10%) increase in mean costs ($130 492 vs $112 598, P < .0001), 6 additional days of hospitalization (14.7 vs 8.7, P < .0001), and 2 additional ICU days (4.3 vs 2.1, P < .0001). Multiple dialysis sessions were associated with an additional $10 000 compared to those with only 1. In conclusion, DGF is associated with increased costs and length of stay for index kidney transplant hospitalizations and payment schemes taking this into account may reduce clinicians' reluctance to utilize less-than-ideal kidneys.

Project description:IntroductionIt is critical to identify kidney transplant recipients (KTRs) at higher risk for adverse outcomes, to focus on monitoring and interventions to improve outcomes. We examined the associations between graft function variability and long-term outcomes in KTRs in an observational study.MethodsWe identified 2919 KTRs in the Wisconsin Allograft Recipient Database (WisARD) who had a functioning allograft 2 years posttransplantation and at least 3 outpatient measurements of estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) from 1 to 2 years posttransplantation. Graft function slope was calculated from a linear regression of eGFR, and variability was defined as the coefficient of variation around this regression line. Associations of eGFR variability and slope with death, graft failure, cardiovascular events, and acute rejection were estimated.ResultsCompared to the lowest quartile, the highest quartile of eGFR variability was associated with a higher risk of death (adjusted hazard ratio [HR] = 1.85; 95% CI = 1.23-2.76), but not with a higher risk of graft failure (subhazard ratio = 1.16; 95% CI = 0.85-1.58), independent of eGFR and slope of eGFR. Greater eGFR variability was associated with higher risk of cardiovascular- and infection-related death and cardiovascular events but not malignancy-related death or allograft rejection. Including variability of eGFR significantly improved prediction of mortality but not prediction of graft failure.ConclusionVariability of eGFR is independently associated with risk of death, especially cardiovascular disease-related death and cardiovascular events, but not graft failure. Variability of eGFR may help identify KTRs at higher risk for death and cardiovascular events.

Project description:In kidney transplant recipients (KTR), hyperuricemia (HU) is a commonly-observed phenomenon, due to calcineurin inhibitors and reduced kidney graft function. Factors predicting HU, and its association with graft function, remains equivocal. We conducted a retrospective longitudinal study to assess factors associated with HU in KTR, and to determine risk factors associated with graft function, measured as glomerular filtration rate (GFR). Moreover, GFR > 60 mL/min/1.73 m2 was considered normal. HU was defined as a serum uric acid level of > 416 μmol/L (4.70 mg/dL) in men and >357 μmol/L (4.04 mg/dL) in women, or xanthine-oxidase inhibitor use. We built multiple logistic regression models to assess predictors of HU in KTR, as well as the association of demographic, clinical, and biochemical parameters of patients with normal GFR after a three-year follow-up. We investigated the effect modification of this association with HU. There were 144 patients (mean age 46.6 ± 13.9), with 42.4% of them having HU. Predictors of HU in KTR were the presence of cystic diseases (OR = 9.68 (3.13; 29.9)), the use of diuretics (OR = 4.23 (1.51; 11.9)), and the male gender (OR = 2.45 (1.07; 5.56)). Being a younger age, of female gender, with a normal BMI, and the absence of diuretic medications increased the possibility of normal GFR. HU was the effect modifier of the association between demographic, clinical, and biochemical factors and a normal GFR. Factors associated with HU in KTR: Presence of cystic diseases, diuretic use, and male gender. HU was the effect modifier of the association of demographic, clinical, and biochemical factors to GFR.

Project description:IntroductionThe impact of deceased donor characteristics on kidney transplant outcomes is controversial. Correspondingly, the predictive performance of deceased donor scores remains moderate, and many transplant centers lack validated criteria for graft acceptance decisions. To better dissect donor-related risk from recipient and periprocedural variables, we analyzed outcomes of kidney donor pairs transplanted in different individuals.MethodsThis study explored (a)symmetry of early outcomes of 328 cadaveric kidney transplant recipients from 164 donor pairs transplanted at three Eurotransplant centers. The primary discriminatory factor was (a)symmetry of partner graft function, defined as early graft loss or impaired graft function [estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) <30 mL/min] 3 months after transplantation. We reasoned that a relevant impact of donor factors would result in a high concordance rate of limited graft function or failure.ResultsThe observed number of symmetric graft failure after transplantation was less than statistically expected (3 months: 1 versus 2, p = 0.89; and 12 months: 3 versus 5, p = 0.26). However, we found a trend toward an impaired 5-year graft survival of grafts with good function 3 months after transplantation but a failed or impaired partner graft compared to symmetrically well-functioning grafts (p = 0.09). Subsequently, we explored the impact of individual donor and recipient variables on early transplant outcomes. Generalized estimating equations after feature selection with LassoGEE bootstrap selected donor age, donor body mass index, and donor eGFR as the relevant risk factors.DiscussionOur findings indicate that donor factors impact early outcomes in kidney transplantation but may have a limited role in long-term graft survival, once a graft has been accepted for transplantation. Utilizing donor-based clinical scores has the potential to aid clinicians in acceptance decisions, giving them an estimate of individual posttransplant outcomes. However, the ultimate decision for acceptance should rest with clinicians, who must consider the complex interplay of donor factors, as well as recipient and periprocedural characteristics.
