Project description:PurposeKidney transplantation is the gold-standard treatment for end stage renal disease. Although different hemodynamic variables, like central venous pressure and mean arterial pressure, have been used to guide volume replacement during surgery, the best strategy still ought to be determined. Respiratory arterial Pulse Pressure Variation (PPV) is recognized to be a good predictor of fluid responsiveness for perioperative hemodynamic optimization in operating room settings. The aim of this study was to investigate whether a PPV-guided fluid management strategy is better than a liberal fluid strategy during kidney transplantation surgeries. Identification of differences in urine output in the first postoperative hour was the main objective of this study.MethodsWe conducted a prospective, single blind, randomized controlled trial. We enrolled 40 patients who underwent kidney transplantation from deceased donors. Patients randomized in the PPV Group received fluids whenever PPV was higher than 12%, patients in the Free Fluid Group received fluids following our institutional standard care protocol for kidney transplantations (10mL.kg-1.h-1).ResultsUrinary output was similar at every time-point between the two groups, urea was statistically different from the third postoperative day with a peak at the fourth postoperative day and creatinine showed a similar trend, being statistically different from the second postoperative day. Urea, creatinine and urine output were not different at the hospital discharge.ConclusionPPV-guided fluid therapy during kidney transplantation significantly improves urea and creatinine levels in the first week after kidney transplantation surgery.

Project description:Older patients constitute a growing proportion of U.S. kidney transplant recipients and often have a high burden of comorbidities. A summary measure of health such as functional status might enable transplant professionals to better evaluate and counsel these patients about their prognosis after transplant.We linked United Network for Organ Sharing registry data about posttransplantation survival with pretransplantation functional status data (physical function [PF] scale of the Medical Outcomes Study Short Form-36) among individuals undergoing kidney transplant from June 1, 2000 to May 31, 2006. We examined the relationship between survival and functional status with multivariable Cox regression, adjusted for age. Using logistic regression models for 3-year survival, we also estimated the reduction in deaths in the hypothetical scenario that recipients with poor functional status in this cohort experienced modest improvements in function.The cohort comprised 10,875 kidney transplant recipients with a mean age of 50 years; 14% were ?65. Differences in 3-year mortality between highest and lowest PF groups ranged from 3% among recipients <35 years to 14% among recipients ?65 years. In multivariable Cox regression, worse PF was associated with higher mortality (hazard ratio, 1.66 for lowest vs. highest PF quartiles; P<0.001). Interactions between PF and age were nonsignificant. We estimated that 11% fewer deaths would occur if kidney transplant recipients with the lowest functional status experienced modest improvements in function.Across a wide age range, functional status was an independent predictor of posttransplantation survival. Functional status assessment may be a useful tool with which to counsel patients about posttransplantation outcomes.

Project description:Background and aimsFunctional capacity (FC) is known to affect morbidity and mortality in kidney transplantation. Despite this important role, little is known about the variables influencing post-transplant FC. Our study aims at identifying these crucial associations.MethodOur study included 16,684 renal transplant recipients (RTR). Patients had transplant between 1 September 2018 and 1 September 2019. Mild functional impairment was defined as those with a KPSS score > or = 80; moderate functional impairment was defined as those with a KPSS score between 50 and 70 and severe functional impairment was defined as those with a KPSS score < or =40. The outcome measured was FC at follow-up one-year post-transplant. Abnormal FC at follow-up was defined as those with KPSS score less than 80%. Normal FC at follow-up was defined as those with KPSS score equal or above 80%. Multivariate logistic regression was used to assess with the relationship between patient characteristics and abnormal functional status post-transplant.ResultsThree groups were identified; those with none-to-mild functional impairment at time of transplant (Group A; n = 8388), those who had moderate impairment at time of transplant (Group B; n = 7694) and those who had severe impairment at time of transplant (Group C; n = 602). Abnormal FC at one-year post transplant was present in 7.69%, 28.89%, 49.49% of patients in group A, B and C, respectively. Glucocorticoid withdrawal was associated with lower risk of developing abnormal FC post-transplant (OR = 0.75, p value = .02, 95% confidence intervals: 0.64 to 0.97), while recipient diabetes was associated with higher risk of abnormal FC (OR = 1.44, p value <.01, 95% confidence intervals: 1.20 to 1.74) in adjusted model.ConclusionKidney transplantation is associated with substantial improvement in all stages of FC in KTRs. Glucocorticoid withdrawal and diabetes mellitus are potentially modifiable factors of FC and merit further considerations during pre-transplant workup and post-transplant immunosuppressive therapeutic planning.Key messagesKidney transplantation is associated with substantial improvement in all stages of FC in KTRs.Glucocorticoid withdrawal and diabetes mellitus are potentially modifiable factors of FC and merit further considerations during pre-transplant workup and post-transplant immunosuppressive therapeutic planning.

Project description:BackgroundAlthough individuals classified as nonresident aliens, including undocumented immigrants, are entitled to receive emergency dialysis in the United States regardless of their ability to pay, most states do not provide them with subsidized care for maintenance dialysis or kidney transplantation. We explored whether nonresident aliens have similar outcomes to US citizens after receiving kidney transplants covered by Medicaid, a joint federal and state health insurance program.Study designRetrospective observational cohort study.Setting & participantsAll adult Medicaid patients in the US Renal Data System who received their first kidney transplant from 1990 to 2011.PredictorCitizenship status, categorized as US citizen, nonresident alien, or permanent resident.OutcomeAll-cause transplant loss.MeasurementsHRs and 95% CIs estimated by applying Cox proportional hazards frailty models with transplantation center as a random effect.ResultsOf 10,495 patients, 8,660 (82%) were US citizens, 1,489 (14%) were permanent residents, and 346 (3%) were nonresident aliens, whom we assumed were undocumented immigrants. Nonresident aliens were younger, healthier, receiving dialysis longer, and more likely to have had a living donor. 71% underwent transplantation in California, and 61% underwent transplantation after 2005. Nonresident aliens had a lower unadjusted risk for transplant loss compared with US citizens (HR, 0.48; 95% CI, 0.35-0.65). Results were attenuated but still significant when adjusted for demographics, comorbid conditions, dialysis, and transplant-related factors (HR, 0.67; 95% CI, 0.46-0.94).LimitationsCitizenship status was self-reported, possible residual confounding.ConclusionsOur study suggests that the select group of insured nonresident aliens who undergo transplantation with Medicaid do just as well as US citizens with Medicaid. Policymakers should consider expanding coverage for kidney transplantation in nonresident aliens, including undocumented immigrants, given the associated high-quality outcomes in these patients.

Project description:BackgroundIn the context of an aging end-stage renal disease population with multiple comorbid conditions, transplantation professionals face challenges in evaluating the global health of patients awaiting kidney transplantation. Functional status might be useful for identifying which patients will derive a survival benefit from transplantation versus dialysis.Study designRetrospective cohort study of wait-listed patients using data for functional status from a national dialysis provider linked to United Network for Organ Sharing registry data.Setting & participantsAdult kidney transplantation candidates added to the waiting list between 2000 and 2006.PredictorPhysical Functioning scale of the Medical Outcomes Study 36-Item Short Form Health Survey, analyzed as a time-varying covariate.OutcomesKidney transplantation; survival benefit of transplantation versus remaining wait-listed.MeasurementsWe used multivariable Cox regression to assess the association between physical function with study outcomes. In survival benefit analyses, transplantation status was modeled as a time-varying covariate.ResultsThe cohort comprised 19,242 kidney transplantation candidates (median age, 51 years; 36% black race) receiving maintenance dialysis. Candidates in the lowest baseline Physical Functioning score quartile were more likely to be inactivated (adjusted HR vs highest quartile, 1.30; 95% CI, 1.21-1.39) and less likely to undergo transplantation (adjusted HR vs highest quartile, 0.64; 95% CI, 0.61-0.68). After transplantation, worse Physical Functioning score was associated with shorter 3-year survival (84% vs 92% for the lowest vs highest function quartiles). However, compared to dialysis, transplantation was associated with a statistically significant survival benefit by 9 months for patients in every function quartile.LimitationsFunctional status is self-reported.ConclusionsEven patients with low function appear to live longer with kidney transplantation versus dialysis. For wait-listed patients, global health measures such as functional status may be more useful in counseling patients about the probability of transplantation than in identifying who will derive a survival benefit from it.

Project description:In this study, we examined transcriptional profiles from 3 different microarray platforms, across 103 peripheral blood samples with and without acute rejection, to find a critical gene-set for the diagnosis of acute renal rejection that matched biopsy diagnosis, irrespective of patient demographics, clinical confounders, concomitant infection, immunosuppression usage or sample processing methods. We hypothesized that changes in peripheral blood expression profiles correlate with biopsy-proven rejection, and that these changes could be used as biomarkers for the diagnosis and prediction of acute rejection. This SuperSeries is composed of the SubSeries listed below. We performed cross-sectional microarray analysis of 103 matched peripheral blood samples collected at a single time point, timed with a biopsy where acute rejection was either confirmed as present (60 AR samples) or absent (62 STA samples). The samples were hybridized to one of 3 microarray platforms: Affymetrix (n=75 the 54K HG-U133_Plus2 Array), Agilent (n=26, 44K oligo Array) and cDNA array (n=21, ~30K cDNA). Of 103 samples, 14 were used on both Affy and Agilent arrays; 1 was used in cDNA and Agilent array and 2 were used across 3 array platforms. Microarray data generated from 3 array platforms were cross-compared, by mapping common and overlapping transcripts to Human Gene Organization (HUGO) gene names. Significant gene lists on each platform were identified using Significant Analysis of Microarray (SAM, ref) with a common significance threshold of a false discovery rate (FDR) of <10%.This set contains the data for samples hybridized to Affymetrix arrays.

Project description:BackgroundFrailty and functional decline are being recognized as important conditions in kidney transplant candidates. However, the ideal measures of functional status and frailty remain unknown as there is not a complete understanding of the relationship between these conditions and important post-transplant outcomes.ObjectiveThe objective was to examine the association between different measures of frailty and functional status evaluated before or at the time of transplant with adverse clinical outcomes post-transplantation.DesignThis study is a systematic review.SettingObservational studies including cohort, case-control, or cross-sectional studies examining the effect of frailty and functional status on clinical outcomes. There were no restrictions on type of setting or country of origin.PatientsAdults who were waitlisted for kidney transplant or had received a kidney transplant.MeasurementsData including demographic information (eg, sample size, age, country), assessments of frailty or functional status and their domains, and outcomes including mortality, transplantation, graft loss, delayed graft function and hospital readmission were extracted.MethodsA search was performed in Medline, Embase, and Cochrane Central Register for Controlled Trials. Studies were included from inception to February 7, 2023. The eligibility of studies was screened by 2 independent reviewers. Data were presented by frailty/functional status instrument and clinical outcome. Point estimates and 95% confidence intervals from fully adjusted statistical models were reported or calculated from the raw data.ResultsA total of 50 studies were identified, among which 36 unique instruments were found. Measurements of these instruments occurred mostly at time of kidney transplant, transplant evaluation, and waitlisting. The median sample size of studies was 457 patients (interquartile range = 183-1760). Frailty and lower functional status were associated with an increased risk for mortality. Similar trends were observed among other clinical outcomes such as graft loss and rehospitalization.LimitationsThe heterogeneity in measurement instruments, study designs, and outcome definitions prevents pooling of the data. Selection bias and the validity of data collection could not be ascertained for some studies.ConclusionFrailty and functional status measures are important predictors of post-kidney transplant outcomes. Further studies are needed to evaluate the best instruments to assess frailty and functional status, and importantly, interventional studies are needed to determine whether prehabilitation strategies can improve post-transplant outcomes.Registration prosperoCRD42016045251.
