RESUMO

BACKGROUND: The administration of contrast medium is associated with acute kidney injury; however, the effect of exposure of a deceased organ donor to contrast medium on kidney transplant outcomes has been poorly studied. METHODS: A retrospective analysis of all deceased kidney donors between 2011 and 2021 and their corresponding recipients in the Netherlands was conducted. Multivariable analyses were performed to assess the associations between contrast medium exposure and delayed graft function (DGF)/graft survival. Linear mixed models were used to assess the differences in mean estimated glomerular filtration rate values in recipients 1 to 6 y after transplantation. RESULTS: In total, 2177 donors and 3638 corresponding kidney graft recipients were included. Twenty-four percent of the donors (n = 520) were exposed to contrast medium, corresponding to 23% of recipients (n = 832). DGF was observed in 36% (n = 1321) and primary nonfunction in 3% (n = 122) of recipients. DGF rates for donation after brain death (DBD) and donation after circulatory death (DCD) donors showed no significant effect of contrast medium exposure ( P = 0.15 and P = 0.60 for DBD and DCD donors, respectively). In multivariable analyses, contrast medium administration was not significantly associated with a higher DGF risk (odds ratio 1.06; 95% confidence interval, 0.86-1.36; P = 0.63) nor was a significant predictor for death-censored graft failure (hazard ratio 1.01; 95% confidence interval, 0.77-1.33; P = 0.93). Linear mixed models showed no difference in mean estimated glomerular filtration rate values in recipients 1 to 6 y posttransplantation ( P = 0.78). CONCLUSIONS: This study indicates that contrast medium administration in DBD and DCD donors has no negative effect on early and long-term kidney graft function.

RESUMO

BACKGROUND: Natural history data are essential for trial design in Duchenne (DMD) and Becker muscular dystrophy (BMD), but recruitment for observational studies can be challenging. OBJECTIVE: We reviewed reasons why patients or caregivers declined participation, and compared characteristics of participants and non-participants to assess possible selection bias in four observational studies, three on DMD and one on BMD. METHODS: Three pediatric DMD studies focused on cross-sectional cognitive function and brain MRI (DMDbrain, n = 35 and DMDperfusion, n = 12), and on longitudinal upper extremity function and muscle MRI (DMDarm, n = 22). One adult BMD study assessed longitudinal functioning (n = 36). Considerations for non-participation were retrospectively reviewed from screening logs. Age, travel-time, DMD gene mutations and age at loss of ambulation (DMDarm and BMD study only), of participants and non-participants were derived from the Dutch Dystrophinopathy Database and compared using nonparametric tests (p < 0.05). RESULTS: The perceived burden of the protocol (38.2%), use of MRI (30.4%), and travel-time to the study site (19.1%) were the most frequently reported considerations for non-participation. Only few patients reported lack of personal gain (0.0- 5.9%). Overall, participating patients were representative for the studied sub-populations, except for a younger age of DMDarm study participants and a complete lack of participants with a mutation beyond exon 63. CONCLUSION: Optimizing patient involvement in protocol design, improving MRI experiences, and integrating research into clinics are important factors to decrease burden and facilitate participation. Nationwide registries are essential to compare participants and non-participants and ensure representative observational research. Specific effort is needed to include patients with distal mutations in cognitive studies.
