ABSTRACT

ABSTRACT Introduction: Anemia is frequent in patients undergoing replacement therapy for kidney failure. Anemia in the pre- and post-transplantation period might be related to kidney transplant outcomes. The current study therefore sought to assess the relationship between anemia, delayed allograft function (DGF), chronic kidney allograft dysfunction (CAD), and death from any cause following kidney transplantation from a deceased donor. Methods: This was a retrospective study with 206 kidney transplant patients of deceased donors. We analyzed deceased donors' and kidney transplant patients' demographic data. Moreover, we compared biochemical parameters, anemia status, and medicines between DGF and non-DGF groups. Afterward, we performed a multivariate analysis. We also evaluated outcomes, such as CAD within one year and death in ten years. Results: We observed a lower frequency of pre-transplant hemoglobin concentration (Hb) but higher frequency of donor-serum creatinine and red blood transfusion within one week after transplantation in the group with DGF. In addition, there was an independent association between Hb concentration before transplantation and DGF [OR 0.252, 95%CI: 0.159-0.401; p < 0.001]. There was also an association between Hb concentration after six months of kidney transplantation and both CAD [OR 0.798, 95% CI: 0.687-0.926; p = 0.003] and death from any cause. Conclusion: An association was found between pre-transplantation anemia and DGF and between anemia six months after transplantation and both CAD and death by any cause. Thus, anemia before or after transplantation affects the outcomes for patients who have undergone kidney transplantation from a deceased donor.


RESUMO Introdução: A anemia é frequente em pacientes submetidos à terapia substitutiva para insuficiência renal. A anemia nos períodos pré e pós-transplante pode estar relacionada aos desfechos do transplante renal. Portanto, o presente estudo buscou avaliar a relação entre anemia, função retardada do enxerto (FRE), disfunção crônica do enxerto renal (DCE) e óbito por qualquer causa após transplante renal de doador falecido. Métodos: Este foi um estudo retrospectivo com 206 pacientes transplantados renais de doadores falecidos. Analisamos dados demográficos de doadores falecidos e pacientes transplantados renais. Além disso, comparamos parâmetros bioquímicos, status de anemia e medicamentos entre os grupos FRE e não-FRE. Posteriormente, realizamos uma análise multivariada. Também avaliamos desfechos, como DCE em um ano e óbito em dez anos. Resultados: Observamos menor frequência de concentração de hemoglobina (Hb) pré-transplante, mas maior frequência de creatinina sérica do doador e transfusão de hemácias no período de uma semana após o transplante no grupo FRE. Além disso, houve associação independente entre a concentração de Hb antes do transplante e a FRE [OR 0,252; IC 95%: 0,159-0,401; p < 0,001]. Houve também associação entre a concentração de Hb após seis meses de transplante renal e ambos, DCE [OR 0,798; IC95%: 0,687-0,926; p = 0,003] e óbito por qualquer causa. Conclusão: Encontrou-se uma associação entre anemia pré-transplante e FRE e entre anemia seis meses após o transplante e ambos, DCE e óbito por qualquer causa. Assim, a anemia antes ou após o transplante afeta os desfechos de pacientes que foram submetidos a transplante renal de doador falecido.

ABSTRACT

Introduction. The critical pathway for deceased donation offers a methodical framework for guiding the donation process. It not only serves to assess performance but also to identify areas of potential improvement. Therefore, the identification and selection of potential organ donors (POD) is a key process. This study aims to describe the critical pathway for deceased donation in a cohort of POD in three regions (CRT1, CRT2, and CRT5) of Colombia. Methods. We retrospectively reviewed data of POD assessed from January 2022 to December 2022. General characteristics of POD, diagnosis, contraindication causes, and organ procurement were described. Analysis was conducted using the Chi-squared test for categorical variables and the Mann-Whitney test for quantitative variables. Results. Within the cohort of 1451 assessed POD, 441 (30.3%) were diagnosed with brain death. Among potential donors after brain death, 198 (44.9%) were eligible donors (medically suitable). Of these, 157 donors (79.3%) became actual donors (undergoing operative incision for organ recovery), with 147 (93,6 %) having at least one organ recovered (actual donors with organ recovery). Ultimately, 411 utilized organs were utilized. Additionally, there were observed differences in the characteristics of donors from different regions. Conclusion. This study reports the critical pathway for deceased donation in a cohort of POD in three regions of Colombia. This provides useful information and helps to gain insight and understanding into the process of organ donation and organ procurement in order to take actions that could improve the donation rates.

ABSTRACT

Background: Apheresis procedures are usually well tolerated. Adverse events (AEs) associated with the use of cell separators can be due to delivery of the anticoagulant, vasovagal, allergy, venous access or machines malfunction. Aim was to study the profile of adverse events of plateletpheresis and plasmapheresis donors. Methods: Plateletpheresis and plasmapheresis procedures enrolled for donors during 2017-2018 were done after taking informed and written consent by using Trima Accel and MCS+cell separator. Donor related AEs were categorised according to severity, site and etiology. Non-donor related (NDR) AEs were kit, technique, or equipment related. Results: 2859 procedures were done, 2836 (99.19%) plateletpheresis and 23 (0.8%) plasmapheresis. All 145 (5.07%) AEs were seen in plateletpheresis. Majority of AEs, 130 (4.54%) were DR. 15 (0.52%) were NDR. Commonest DR AEs was citrate related (CR) 76 (2.6%), followed by vasovagal reaction (VVR) in 31 (1.08%) and vascular injury in 23 (0.8%). Majority of the AEs were mild in 124 (4.33%), only 6 (0.20%) were moderate. 107 (3.74%) AEs were (VI) systemic, while 23 (0.80%) were local. In local AEs, hematomas were more common. First time donors had more AEs, 62/1234 (5.02%) as compared to the repeat donors 68/1625 (4.18%). CR AEs were more in repeat donors, 46 (2.8%) as compared to first time donors, 30 (2.43%). VVRs and VIs were more in first time as compared to the repeat donors. NDR AEs were 15 (0.52%). Conclusions: Donor vigilance, trained technical personnel and specialists� supervision are vital for donor safety hence affecting apheresis donor pool.

ABSTRACT

Background: Blood transfusion is a life-saving intervention. Blood should be accepted from non-remunerated and healthy donors. Proper donor screening procedure minimizes the risk of transfusion transmitted Infections and also wastage of blood and blood products and thus screening of donors is a prerequisite for blood donation. Methods: This is a retrospective study conducted in blood bank center in the Department of Pathology in a Government teaching hospital, Shivamogga from January 2022 to June 2022. All the voluntary and replacement donors were evaluated by the standard questionnaire and medical examination including demographic profile, anthropometry, blood group, vital signs and hemoglobin estimated by cyanmethemoglobin method were collected from the donation requisition forms and online deferred list. The data were represented in the form of percentage, descriptive statistics and analysed. Results: Out of 3,449 blood donors, 252 were deferred. The deferral rate was 7.31%. Among the ineligible donors, males 245 (97.22%) outnumbered females 7 (2.8%). 242 donors (96.03%) were temporarily rejected among which high blood pressure constituted to 23.02% followed by alcohol consumption (11.11%) whereas 10 donors (3.96%) were deferred permanently. 9 donors (3.57%) had low haemoglobin level. Conclusions: Temporary deferrals are more than permanent deferrals thus temporarily deferred donors should be instructed to return for blood donation after their period of deferral days to retain the pool of blood donors.

ABSTRACT

As a marginal organ donor, organs from hepatitis C donors have been applied in solid organ transplantation. While effectively alleviating the shortage of organs, it also faces certain challenges, such as the spread of hepatitis C virus (HCV). With the emergence and application of direct-acting antiviral agent, the cure of hepatitis C has gradually become a reality, laying the foundation for hepatitis C patients to become organ transplant donors. At present, with adjuvant treatment using antiviral drugs, certain efficacy has been achieved in solid organ transplantation from hepatitis C donors. In this article, research progress in kidney, heart, lung and liver transplantation from hepatitis C donors, the application of hepatitis C donors in solid organ transplantation and the safety and effectiveness of antiviral drugs were reviewed, and the feasibility of hepatitis C donors in solid organ transplantation was evaluated, aiming to provide reference for expanding the donor pool of organ transplantation and shortening the waiting time for organ transplantation in patients with end-stage diseases.

ABSTRACT

<b>Objective</b> To evaluate the effect of glycogen synthase kinase 3β (GSK3β) on hypoxia/reoxygenation (H/R)-induced injury of senescent renal tubular epithelial cell (RTEC) in aged mice and its regulatory mechanism. <b>Methods</b> RTEC were divided into the Young group (young RTEC with normal growth), Old group (aged RTEC induced by Etoposide), Old+Ad-shNC+H/R group [aged RTEC induced by Etoposide and then transfected with adenovirus negative control (Ad-shNC) for H/R treatment], and Old+Ad-shGSK3β+H/R group (aged RTEC induced by Etoposide and then transfected with short-hairpin RNA-expressing adenovirus with targeted silencing GSK3β for H/R treatment), respectively. Apoptosis level and mitochondrial reactive oxygen species level were detected by flow cytometry. Calcium ion level was determined by immunofluorescence staining. The expression and phosphorylation levels of GSK3β, mitochondria-associated endoplasmic reticulum membrane (MAM)-related proteins of inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate receptor1 (ITPR1), voltage dependent anion-selective channel 1(VDAC1) and glucose-regulated protein 75 (GRP75) were detected by Western blot. The interaction between GSK3β and MAM-related proteins was analyzed by immunoprecipitation. <b>Results</b> Compared with the Young group, the apoptosis, mitochondrial reactive oxygen species and mitochondrial calcium ion levels were higher in the Old group. Compared with the Old group, the apoptosis, mitochondrial reactive oxygen species and mitochondrial calcium ion levels were higher in the Old+Ad-shNC+H/R group. Compared with the Old+Ad-shNC+H/R group, the apoptosis, mitochondrial reactive oxygen species and mitochondrial calcium ion levels were lower in the Old+Ad-shGSK3β+H/R group, and the differences were statistically significant (all <i>P</i><0.05). Compared with the Young group, the expression levels of ITPR1, GRP75 and GSK3β proteins were up-regulated, the phosphorylation levels of ITPR1 and GRP75 were increased, whereas the total protein and phosphorylation levels of VDAC1 were decreased in the Old group. Compared with the Old group, the expression level of GSK3β protein was unchanged, the total protein and phosphorylation levels of ITPR1 and GRP75 were increased, the expression level of total VDAC1 protein remained unchanged and the phosphorylation level was increased in the Old+Ad-shNC+H/R group. Compared with the Old+Ad-shNC+H/R group, the expression level of GSK3β protein was decreased, the expression levels of total ITPR1, GRP75 and VDAC1 proteins were unchanged, whereas the phosphorylation levels were decreased in the Old+Ad-shGSK3β+H/R group. Immunoprecipitation showed that GSK3β could interact with ITPR1, GRP75 and VDAC1 proteins. <b>Conclusions</b> The expression level of GSK3β is up-regulated in senescent RTEC. Down-regulating GSK3β expression may reduce the phosphorylation level of ITPR1-GRP75-VDAC1 complex, constrain the overload of mitochondrial calcium ion, protect mitochondrial function and mitigate cell damage during reperfusion.

ABSTRACT

<b>Objective</b> To evaluate the safety, effectiveness and feasibility of robotic-assisted kidney transplantation (RAKT). <b>Methods</b> Clinical data of 16 patients who underwent kidney transplantation were collected. Among them, 8 recipients received RAKT (RAKT group) and 8 cases underwent open kidney transplantation (OKT) with the contralateral kidney from the same donor (OKT group). Perioperative status and the recovery of renal allograft function were compared between two groups. <b>Results</b> All patients successfully completed the surgery. In the RAKT group, no patient was converted to open surgery. The operation time in the RAKT group was longer than that in the OKT group (<i>P</i>=0.015). No significant differences were observed in the serum creatinine levels before surgery and upon discharge between two groups (both <i>P</i>>0.05). In the OKT group, one recipient developed delayed graft function (DGF), and the remaining recipients did not experience perioperative complications. No significant difference was noted in the short-term recovery of renal allograft function between two groups (<i>P</i>>0.05). <b>Conclusions</b> Postoperative recovery of the recipients in the RAKT group is equivalent to that of their counterparts in the OKT group. RAKT is a safe and effective procedure for the team expertise in kidney transplantation.

ABSTRACT

With persistent breakthrough and maturity of surgical procedures and postoperative immunosuppressive therapy, the survival rate of liver transplant recipients and grafts has been significantly increased. The shortage of donor liver has become the main obstacle for clinical development of liver transplantation. How to expand the source of donor liver has become an urgent issue. Groundbreaking progresses have been made in the use of common marginal donor livers in clinical liver transplantation, such as elderly donor liver, steatosis donor liver, viral hepatitis donor liver and liver from donation after cardiac death. Nevertheless, multiple restrictions still exist regarding the use of marginal donor liver. Consequently, the definition of marginal donor liver and research progress in the application of common marginal donor livers were reviewed, and the opportunities and challenges of mariginal donoor liver were illustrated, aiming to provide reference for expanding the donor pool for clinical liver transplantation and bringing benefits to more patients with end-stage liver disease.

ABSTRACT

Objective To investigate the effects of anti-HLA donor-specific antibodies(DSA)and desensitization for DSA+patients on engraftment of haploidentical hematopoietic stem cell transplantation(haplo-HSCT).Methods The patients who underwent haplo-HSCT and examinations for HLA antibodies and DSA in our department from March 2017 to July 2023 were recruited in this study.The effects of desensitization measure on engraftment in the DSA+patients after haplo-HSCT were analyzed.Results Among the 70 patients who underwent haplo-HSCT and test for HLA antibodies,15(21.4%)patients were DSA positive,including 7(46.7%)cases of strong positive,3(20.0%)cases of moderate positive,and 5(33.3%)cases of weak positive.The median duration for neutrophil implantation was significantly extended in the DSA+patients than the negative patients(P=0.027).For the 6 patients developed graft failure(GF),4 were DSA+which was statistically higher than the DSA-patients(P=0.025).Multivariate regression analysis showed that DSA was an independent factor affecting GF(HR=9.273,95%CI:1.505~57.124,P=0.016).Among the 10 patients(7 strong positive and 3 moderate positive DSA)received desensitization therapy,4 patients received combination desensitization,with a 100%rate of successful transplantation,and 6 received single desensitization,with 4(66.7%)experiencing GF,so the GF rate was obviously lower in the combination than the single desensitization(P=0.008).Conclusion In haplo-HSCT patients,DSA is an important factor leading to implantation delay and GF.While,single desensitization treatment has limited efficacy.In combined DSA desensitization therapy,the decrease of antibody titer should be dynamically monitored to ensure the successful implantation of stem cells and reduce GF rate.

ABSTRACT

Based upon the underlying mechanism and pathological evidence of tissue injury of antibody-mediated rejection (AMR) , four etiological and symptomatic therapies were proposed for managing AMR, including etiological treatment of AMR including antibody-targeting, B cell or plasma cell-targeting therapies; strategies for preventing antibody-mediated endothelial damage: an inhibition of complement/antibody dependent cell-mediated pathways; anticoagulant & thrombolytic therapies for thrombotic microangiopathy secondary to endothelial damage ; anti-inflammatory therapies for acute/chronic vascular inflammation secondary to endothelial damage. Etiological treatment is essential for preventing and treating AMR while symptomatic measures, such as anticoagulant, thrombolytic and antiinflammatory therapies, are stressed. Finally the authors devised therapeutic strategies for AMR in 4 different patient groups of non-sensitized allograft recipients, sensitized allograft recipients, individuals with active AMR and those with chronic active AMR.

ABSTRACT

Objective:To investigate the prognosis of marginal donor heart in heart transplantation.Methods:The clinical data of consecutive heart transplant recipients and donors in Zhengzhou 7th. People’s Hospital from April 2018 to November 2022 were retrospectively included. According to the definition of marginal donor hearts, the patients were divided into conventional donor hearts group (117 cases) and marginal donor hearts group ( 62 cases), the data before and after heart transplantation of the two groups were analyzed.Results:The main reason for the formation of marginal donor hearts was the cold ischemia time of donor hearts >6 h; it was easier to receive marginal donor hearts with ECMO and MV before operation; the use of marginal donor hearts in heart transplantation increased postoperative mechanical ventilation time, surgical post-intensive care unit length of stay; patients with marginal donors had lower survival than conventional donors, but did not produce a significant difference in survival after heart transplantation.Conclusion:The application of marginal donor heart in heart transplantation is an effective method to solve the shortage of heart organs and reduce the death of transplant waiting persons.

ABSTRACT

Organ preservation fluid could mitigate cold ischemia injury and maintain normal function of the grafts. At present, how to reduce a series of injury caused by cold ischemia of donor liver and improve the preservation quality of grafts are the hot and challenging spots in this field. Currently, preservation fluid in clinical practice has not achieved ideal preservation effect, especially for the protection of marginal donor organs. In the context of severe donor shortage, the key solution is still to explore the optimal preservation protocol for donor liver to prevent grafts from cold ischemia injury. In this article, the mechanism of donor liver injury during cold ischemia, the classification and evolution of donor liver preservation fluid were summarized, the development direction and challenges of donor liver preservation fluid were discussed, aiming to provide novel ideas and references for the research and development of donor liver preservation fluid.

ABSTRACT

Colorectal cancer is one of the common malignant tumors in China. Studies have shown that more than 50% of patients with colorectal cancer will experience metastasis. After systematic treatment, patients with resectable colorectal cancer could obtain favorable 5-year survival rate. However, patients with unresectable colorectal liver metastasis constantly obtain poor prognosis. In spite of the development of medical treatment, patients with unresectable colorectal liver metastasis can be treated by multiple approaches, such as interventional therapy combined with targeted therapy and immunotherapy, clinical efficacy is relatively low. Hence, clinicians divert extensive attention to liver transplantation. Liver transplantation, as an emerging treatment in recent years, is expected to improve clinical prognosis of patients with unresectable colorectal liver metastasis. In this article, research progress in liver transplantation for patients with unresectable colorectal liver metastasis was reviewed, mainly including the historical overview, recent results, prognostic factors, adaptation criteria, relationship with systemic treatment, liver source shortage and donor allocation, aiming to provide reference for liver transplantation for patients with colorectal liver metastasis.

ABSTRACT

Objective To summarize the experience and practical value of living donor kidney harvesting in Bama miniature pigs with six gene modified. Methods The left kidney of Bama miniature pigs with six gene modified was obtained by living donor kidney harvesting technique. First, the ureter was occluded, and then the inferior vena cava and abdominal aorta were freed. During the harvesting process, the ureter, renal vein and renal artery were exposed and freed in sequence. The vascular forceps were used at the abdominal aorta and inferior vena cava, and the renal artery and vein were immediately perfused with 4℃ renal preservation solution, and stored in ice normal saline for subsequent transplantation. Simultaneously, the donor abdominal aorta and inferior vena cava gap were sutured. The operation time, blood loss, warm and cold ischemia time, postoperative complications and the survival of donors and recipients were recorded. Results The left kidney of the genetically modified pig was successfully harvested. Intraoperative bleeding was 5 mL, warm ischemia time was 45 s, and cold ischemia time was 2.5 h. Neither donor nor recipient pig received blood transfusion, and urinary function of the kidney transplanted into the recipient was recovered. The donor survived for more than 8 months after the left kidney was resected. Conclusions Living donor kidney harvesting is safe and reliable in genetically modified pigs. Branch blood vessels could be processed during kidney harvesting, which shortens the process of kidney repair and the time of cold ischemia. Living donor kidney harvesting contributes to subsequent survival of donors and other scientific researches.

ABSTRACT

Objective To identify the influencing factors of operation time of hand-assisted laparoscopic living donor nephrectomy, and to analyze the relationship between influencing factors and the severity of postoperative complications. Methods Clinical data of 91 donors who underwent hand-assisted laparoscopic nephrectomy were retrospectively analyzed. The correlation between preoperative baseline data of donors and operation time was analyzed. The relationship between operation time and postoperative complications was assessed and the threshold of operation time was determined. Results Multiple donor renal arteries, thick perirenal and posterior renal fat, metabolic syndrome, high Mayo adhesive probability (MAP) score and Clavien-Dindo score prolonged the operation time. By analyzing the receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve, we found that when the operation time was ≥138 min, the incidence of postoperative complications of donors was significantly increased (P<0.05). Conclusions For donors with multiple renal arteries, thick perirenal and posterior renal fat, metabolic syndrome and high MAP score and Clavien-Dindo score, experienced surgeons should be selected to make adequate preoperative preparation and pay close attention after surgery, so as to timely detect postoperative complications and reduce the severity of complications, enhance clinical prognosis of the donors.
