Difference in the Cytomegalovirus-related clinical laboratory findings between patients with bone marrow and kidney transplantation
Background: Despite close monitoring of transplant patients, cytomegalovirus (CMV) infection remains one of the most critical problems in the field of transplantation. This study aims to investigate the relationship between CMV viral load and clinical laboratory findings in transplant recipients. Materials And Methods: Thirty-four transplant recipients comprising 15 kidney transplant (KT) reci...

patients and methods we investigated the timing and frequency of acute rejection episodes related to long-term patient-graft survival in taleghani hospital between 1990 and 2011. recipients were divided into three groups as group-1 (no rejection), group-2 (early acute rejection [ear]: less than 3-months) and group-3 (late acute rejection [lar]: after 3 months of transplant). conclusions lar had...
full textRole of Cytomegalovirus Reinfection in Acute Rejection and CMV Disease After Renal Transplantation
Renal transplantation is a most valuable treatment for patients with end-stage renal disease as it offers improved survival and quality-of-life benefits compared with dialysis (Evans, Manninen et al. 1985; Port, Wolfe et al. 1993). However, there has been no satisfactory increase in long-term graft survival despite significant advances in the field of renal transplantation (Meier-Kriesche, Scho...

Kidney transplantation in patients with end stage renal disease is preferred to dialysis because transplantation provides a better quality of life andimproved survival. However, the gap between the supply and demand for a renal allograft is widening and the waiting time is increasing. Iranian protocol, a controlled transplant program supported by the government for living unrelated donors, was ...

The study was performed on 45 patients with heart transplantation out of which 30 presented serologic cytomegalovirus infection. For histological study we used: hematoxylin eosin, van Gieson, Masson's trichrome, green methyl pironin stains. Immunohistochemistry was performed using ABC technique (avidin biotin complexes or avidin biotin) with the following monoclonal antibodies: CD8, CD4, CD20, ...
full textAcute Rejection Following Cardiac Transplantation
Nine patients have undergone cardiac transplantation at Stanford University Hospital. Three of these showed no clinical evidence of rejection and had essentially normal physical and phonocardiographic findings. There were eight distinct early rejection episodes in the other six patients. Early rejection was accompanied by decreasing QRS voltage, an early diastolic gallop, and frequently a right...
