Assessment of Risk Factors for Hospital Readmission after Kidney Transplantation
Background and Purpose: Hospital readmission after kidney transplantation is a real challenge for both patients and healthcare systems. Assessment of the risk factors of readmission after kidney transplantation is vital and can reduce morbidity and cost in transplant recipients and donors. The aim of the current study was to determine the risk factors of hospital readmission in patients undergo...
متن کاملPolyomavirus BK-specific immunity after kidney transplantation.
Failure to mount or maintain a protective immune response may influence the development of polyomavirus BK (BKV)-associated nephropathy (PVAN). However, limited data are so far available on BKV-specific immunity after kidney transplantation. BKV-specific cellular immune response was retrospectively analyzed in kidney recipients with or without BKV infection/reactivation by measuring the frequen...
متن کامل[BK viral infection after renal transplantation].
Viral infections have been a subject of great interest in patients after organ transplantations. Post-transplant immunosuppressive therapy is often associated with transfenction or reactivation of viruses. The human polyomavirus type I, also called BKvirus (BKV), causes polyomavirus-associated nephropathy (PVAN) in 1-10% of renal transplant recipients. Thanks to increased PVAN awareness and imp...
متن کاملRisk Stratification for Rejection and Infection after Kidney Transplantation.
BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES Definition of individual risk profile is the first step to implement strategies to keep the delicate balance between under- and overimmunosuppression after kidney transplantation. DESIGN, SETTING, PARTICIPANTS, & MEASUREMENTS We used data from the Efficacy Limiting Toxicity Elimination Symphony Study (1190 patients between 2002 and 2004) to model risk of rejection an...
متن کاملUreteral Stent Placement Increases the Risk for Developing BK Viremia after Kidney Transplantation
The placement of ureteral stent (UrSt) at kidney transplantation reduces major urological complications but increases the risk for developing nephropathy from the BK virus. It is unclear whether UrSt placement increases nephropathy risk by increasing risk of precursor viral replication or by other mechanisms. We retrospectively investigated whether UrSt placement increased the risk for developi...
