Circulating Donor Lung-specific Exosome Profiles Enable Noninvasive Monitoring of Acute Rejection in a Rodent Orthotopic Lung Transplantation Model

There is a critical need for development of biomarkers to noninvasively monitor for lung transplant rejection. We investigated the potential of circulating donor lung-specific exosome profiles for time-sensitive diagnosis of acute rejection in a rat orthotopic lung transplant model.

Improved Organ Utilization and Better Transplant Outcomes With In Situ Normothermic Regional Perfusion in Controlled Donation After Circulatory Death

We evaluated whether the use of normothermic regional perfusion (NRP) was associated with increased organ recovery and improved transplant outcomes from controlled donation after circulatory death (cDCD).

Left ventricular hypertrophy (LVH) in patients with end stage renal disease undergoing renal replacement is linked to an increased risk for cardiovascular diseases. Dialysis does not completely prevent or correct this abnormality, and the evidence for kidney transplantation (KT) varies. This analysis aims to explore the relationship between KT and LVH.
