Effect of donor-recipient age difference on graft function and survival in live-donor kidney transplantation.
BACKGROUND Renal transplant recipients of older deceased-donor kidneys have reduced allograft survival. However, the impact of donor-recipient age difference on live-donor kidney transplant outcomes, where donors are older than recipients, remains unclear. METHODS Using the Australia and New Zealand Dialysis and Transplant Registry, all primary live-donor kidney transplant recipients in Austr...
متن کاملKidney transplantation in children: impact of young recipient age on graft survival.
BACKGROUND It has been suggested that recipient age may have an effect on renal graft survival due to its potential influence on the competence of the immune system. A comparison of graft survival between children and elderly adults, however, has never been performed. METHODS Forty patients /=65 ye...
متن کاملKidney and recipient weight incompatibility reduces long-term graft survival.
Long-term function of kidney allografts depends on multiple variables, one of which may be the compatibility in size between the graft and the recipient. Here, we assessed the long-term consequences of the ratio of the weight of the kidney to the weight of the recipient (KwRw ratio) in a multicenter cohort of 1189 patients who received a transplant between 1995 and 2006. The graft filtration ra...
متن کاملAGE proteins as a causative factor in Alzheimer's Disease
The reaction between reducing sugars and protein free amines, known as the Maillar reaction results in the formation of advanced glycation endproducts (AGEs). AGE modification changes the structure of proteins to amyloid cross-beta structure. These protein structures can activate receptors known as RAGE on glial cells (microglia and astrocytes), and induce the expression of inducible nitric oxi...
