SDMA is an early marker of change in GFR after living-related kidney donation.
BACKGROUND Early detection of changes in the glomerular filtration rate (GFR) is crucial in detecting acute kidney injury. There is burgeoning evidence from preclinical and clinical studies that symmetrical dimethylarginine (SDMA) correlates well with different parameters of renal function. In some studies, SDMA even outperformed creatinine as a marker of GFR. It is however unknown how fast SDM...
متن کاملRehospitalization after living kidney donation.
Readmission for acute conditions has become an important metric for health systems in looking at the success of their original treatment for a particular condition. Indeed, it is so important that there are specific financial penalties relating to readmissions for specific conditions. In general, readmission analysis has focused on the short term (30 days) and on complications that arise in con...
متن کاملRisks in life after living kidney donation.
Kidney transplantation, particularly from a living donor, is considered the treatment of choice for selected patients with end-stage renal disease (ESRD). A successful transplantation not only provides a better quality of life but also a survival advantage to the transplanted patient [1]. The superior results which can be achieved with kidney transplantation from living donors and the limited s...
متن کاملBenign hyperfiltration after living kidney donation.
Almost one-third of transplanted kidneys come from living donors, who sacrifice approximately 30% of their pre-donation glomerular filtration rate (GFR) after they experience compensatory hypertrophy and hyperfiltration in their remaining kidney. Although hyperfiltration can cause glomerular injury, many studies have suggested that donor nephrectomy itself does not cause long-term loss of GFR a...
متن کاملIncreased glomerulonephritis recurrence after living related donation
BACKGROUND Kidney transplantation confers superior outcomes for patients with end stage kidney disease, and live donor kidneys associate with superior outcomes compared to deceased donor kidneys. Modern immunosuppression has improved rejection rates and transplant survival and, as a result, recurrence of glomerulonephritis has emerged as a major cause of allograft loss. However, many glomerulon...
