Project description:Primary central nervous system lymphoma (PCNSL) risk is greatly increased in immunosuppressed human immunodeficiency virus-infected people. Using data from the US transplant registry linked with 17 cancer registries (1987-2014), we studied PCNSL and systemic non-Hodgkin lymphoma (NHL) in 288 029 solid organ transplant recipients. Transplant recipients had elevated incidence for PCNSL compared with the general population (standardized incidence ratio = 65.1; N = 168), and this elevation was stronger than for systemic NHL (standardized incidence ratio=11.5; N = 2043). Compared to kidney recipients, PCNSL incidence was lower in liver recipients (adjusted incidence rate ratio [aIRR] = 0.52), similar in heart and/or lung recipients, and higher in other/multiple organ recipients (aIRR = 2.45). PCNSL incidence was higher in Asians/Pacific Islanders than non-Hispanic whites (aIRR = 2.09); after induction immunosuppression with alemtuzumab (aIRR = 3.12), monoclonal antibodies (aIRR = 1.83), or polyclonal antibodies (aIRR = 2.03); in recipients who were Epstein-Barr virus-seronegative at the time of transplant and at risk of primary infection (aIRR = 1.95); and within the first 1.5 years after transplant. Compared to other recipients, those with PCNSL had increased risk of death (adjusted hazard ratio [aHR] = 11.79) or graft failure/retransplantation (aHR = 3.24). Recipients with PCNSL also had higher mortality than those with systemic NHL (aHR = 1.48). In conclusion, PCNSL risk is highly elevated among transplant recipients, and it carries a poor prognosis.

Project description:The Organ Procurement and Transplantation Network gives priority in kidney allocation to prior live organ donors who require a kidney transplant. In this study, we analyzed the effect of this policy on facilitating access to transplantation for prior donors who were wait-listed for kidney transplantation in the United States. Using 1:1 propensity score-matching methods, we assembled two matched cohorts. The first cohort consisted of prior organ donors and matched nondonors who were wait-listed during the years 1996-2010. The second cohort consisted of prior organ donors and matched nondonors who underwent deceased donor kidney transplantation. During the study period, there were 385,498 listings for kidney transplantation, 252 of which were prior donors. Most prior donors required dialysis by the time of listing (64% versus 69% among matched candidates; P=0.24). Compared with matched nondonors, prior donors had a higher rate of deceased donor transplant (85% versus 33%; P<0.001) and a lower median time to transplantation (145 versus 1607 days; P<0.001). Prior donors received higher-quality allografts (median kidney donor risk index 0.67 versus 0.90 for nondonors; P<0.001) and experienced lower post-transplant mortality (hazard ratio, 0.19; 95% confidence interval, 0.08 to 0.46; P<0.001) than matched nondonors. In conclusion, these data suggest that prior organ donors experience brief waiting time for kidney transplant and receive excellent-quality kidneys, but most need pretransplant dialysis. Individuals who are considering live organ donation should be provided with this information because this allocation priority will remain in place under the new US kidney allocation system.

Project description:BackgroundMales have 2-3-fold greater risk of cancer than females at most shared anatomic sites, possibly reflecting enhanced immune surveillance against cancer in females. We examined whether these sex differences remained among immunocompromised adults.MethodsUsing the Transplant Cancer Match (TCM) study, we estimated the male-to-female incidence rate ratio in TCM (M:F IRRTransplant) for 15 cancer sites diagnosed between 1995 and 2017 using Poisson regression. Male to female IRRs in the general population (M:F IRRGP) were calculated using expected cancer counts from the Surveillance, Epidemiology, and End Results Program, standardized to the transplant population on age, race and ethnicity, and diagnosis year. Male to female IRRs were compared using a chi-square test.ResultsAmong 343 802 solid organ transplants, 211 206 (61.4%) were among men and 132 596 (38.6%) among women. An excess cancer incidence in males was seen in transplant recipients, but the sex difference was attenuated for cancers of the lip (M:F IRRTransplant: 1.81 vs M:F IRRGP: 3.96; P < .0001), stomach (1.51 vs 2.09; P = .002), colorectum (0.98 vs 1.43; P < .0001), liver (2.39 vs 3.44; P = .002), kidney (1.67 vs 2.24; P < .0001), bladder (2.02 vs 4.19; P < .0001), Kaposi sarcoma (1.79 vs 3.26; P = .0009), and non-Hodgkin lymphoma (1.34 vs 1.64; P < .0001). The M:F IRRTransplant was not statistically different from the M:F IRRGP for other cancer sites.ConclusionsAlthough male solid organ transplant recipients have higher cancer incidence than female recipients, the attenuation in the male to female ratio for many cancers studied relative to the general population might suggest the importance of immunosurveillance, with some loss of advantage in female recipients due to immunosuppression after transplantation.

Project description:BackgroundGraft loss is a major health concern for kidney transplant (KTx) recipients. It is of clinical interest to develop a prognostic model for both graft function, quantified by estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR), and the risk of graft failure. Additionally, the model should be dynamic in the sense that it adapts to accumulating longitudinal information, including time-varying at-risk population, predictor-outcome association, and clinical history. Finally, the model should also properly account for the competing risk by death with a functioning graft. A model with the features above is not yet available in the literature and is the focus of this research.MethodsWe built and internally validated a prediction model on 3,893 patients from the Wisconsin Allograft Recipient Database (WisARD) who had a functioning graft 6 months after kidney transplantation. The landmark analysis approach was used to build a proof-of-concept dynamic prediction model to address the aforementioned methodological issues: the prediction of graft failure, accounted for competing risk of death, as well as the future eGFR value, are updated at each post-transplant time. We used 21 predictors including recipient characteristics, donor characteristics, transplant-related and post-transplant factors, longitudinal eGFR, hospitalization, and rejection history. A sensitivity analysis explored a less conservative variable selection rule that resulted in a more parsimonious model with reduced predictors.ResultsFor prediction up to the next 1 to 5 years, the model achieved high accuracy in predicting graft failure, with the AUC between 0.80 and 0.95, and moderately high accuracy in predicting eGFR, with the root mean squared error between 10 and 18 mL/min/1.73m2 and 70%-90% of predicted eGFR falling within 30% of the observed eGFR. The model demonstrated substantial accuracy improvement compared to a conventional prediction model that used only baseline predictors.ConclusionThe model outperformed conventional prediction model that used only baseline predictors. It is a useful tool for patient counseling and clinical management of KTx and is currently available as a web app.

Project description:BackgroundAcute kidney disease (AKD) is defined as impaired kidney function present for <90 days with or without an acute kidney injury (AKI) event. Adults with AKD have an increased risk for progression to chronic kidney disease (CKD) and mortality. There are no data on the epidemiology of AKD in children after transplant. The aim of this study was to evaluate the incidence and risk factors for AKI, AKD, and CKD in children after transplantation.MethodsThis is a retrospective cohort study of all children undergoing non-kidney solid organ transplant between 2011 and 2019 at UPMC Children's Hospital of Pittsburgh. AKI and AKD were defined using the Kidney Disease Improving Global Outcomes criteria. Patients with a new estimated glomerular filtration rate <60 ml/min/1.73m2 persisting for >3 months met criteria for new CKD. Variables associated with AKI, AKD, and CKD were analyzed.ResultsAmong 338 patients, 37.9% met criteria for severe AKI, 13% for AKD, and 8% for a new diagnosis of CKD. Stage 3 AKI was independently associated with AKD (OR: 5.35; 95% CI: 2.23-12.86). Severe AKI was not associated with new-onset CKD, whereas AKD was associated with new-onset CKD (OR: 29.74; CI: 11.22-78.82).ConclusionAKD may be superior to AKI in predicting risk of CKD in children after non-kidney solid organ transplantation.

Project description:BackgroundRates and risk factors for cytomegalovirus (CMV) prophylaxis breakthrough and discontinuation were investigated, given uncertainty regarding optimal dosing for CMV primary (val)ganciclovir prophylaxis after solid organ transplantation (SOT).MethodsRecipients transplanted from 2012 to 2016 and initiated on primary prophylaxis were followed until 90 days post-transplantation. A (val)ganciclovir prophylaxis score for each patient per day was calculated during the follow-up time (FUT; score of 100 corresponding to manufacturers' recommended dose for a given estimated glomerular filtration rate [eGFR]). Cox models were used to estimate hazard ratios (HRs), adjusted for relevant risk factors.ResultsOf 585 SOTs (311 kidney, 117 liver, 106 lung, 51 heart) included, 38/585 (6.5%) experienced prophylaxis breakthrough and 35/585 (6.0%) discontinued prophylaxis for other reasons. CMV IgG donor+/receipient- mismatch (adjusted HR [aHR], 5.37; 95% confidence interval [CI], 2.63 to 10.98; P < 0.001) and increasing % FUT with a prophylaxis score <90 (aHR, 1.16; 95% CI, 1.04 to 1.29; P = .01 per 10% longer FUT w/ score <90) were associated with an increased risk of breakthrough. Lung recipients were at a significantly increased risk of premature prophylaxis discontinuation (aHR, 20.2 vs kidney; 95% CI, 3.34 to 121.9; P = .001), mainly due to liver or myelotoxicity.ConclusionsRecipients of eGFR-adjusted prophylaxis doses below those recommended by manufacturers were at an increased risk of prophylaxis breakthrough, emphasizing the importance of accurate dose adjustment according to the latest eGFR and the need for novel, less toxic agents.

Project description:ImportanceKidney transplant is considered beneficial in terms of survival compared with continued dialysis for patients with kidney failure. However, randomized clinical trials are infeasible, and available evidence from cohort studies is at high risk of bias.ObjectiveTo compare restricted mean survival times (RMSTs) between patients who underwent transplant and patients continuing dialysis across transplant candidate ages and depending on waiting time, applying target trial emulation methods.Design, setting, and participantsIn this retrospective cohort study, patients aged 18 years or older appearing on the wait list for their first single-organ deceased donor kidney transplant between January 1, 2000, and December 31, 2018, in Austria were evaluated. Available data were obtained from the Austrian Dialysis and Transplant Registry and Eurotransplant and included repeated updates on wait-listing status and relevant covariates. Data were analyzed between August 1, 2019, and December 23, 2021.ExposuresA target trial was emulated in which patients were randomized to either receive the transplant immediately (treatment group) or to continue dialysis and never receive a transplant (control group) at each time an organ became available.Main outcomes and measuresThe primary outcome was time from transplant allocation to death. Effect sizes in terms of RMSTs were obtained using a sequential Cox approach.ResultsAmong the 4445 included patients (2974 men [66.9%]; mean [SD] age, 52.2 [13.2] years), transplant was associated with increased survival time across all considered ages compared with continuing dialysis and remaining on the wait list within a 10-year follow-up. The estimated RMST differences were 0.57 years (95% CI, -0.14 to 1.84 years) at age 20 years, 3.01 years (95% CI, 2.50 to 3.54 years) at age 60 years, and 2.48 years (95% CI, 1.88 to 3.04 years) at age 70 years. The survival benefit for patients who underwent transplant across ages was independent of waiting time.Conclusions and relevanceThe findings of this study suggest that kidney transplant prolongs the survival time of persons with kidney failure across all candidate ages and waiting times.

Project description:BackgroundPredicting allograft failure in kidney transplant recipients can help plan renal replacement therapy and guide patient-provider communication. The kidney failure risk equation (KFRE) accurately predicts the need for dialysis in patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD), but has not been validated in kidney transplant recipients.ObjectiveWe sought to validate the 4-variable KFRE (age, sex, estimated glomerular filtration rate [eGFR], and urine albumin-to-creatinine ratio [ACR]) for prediction of 2- and 5-year death-censored allograft failure.DesignRetrospective cohort study.SettingFour independent North American Cohorts from Ontario, Canada; Alberta, Canada; Manitoba, Canada; and Wisconsin, United States, between January 1999 and December 2017.PatientsAdult kidney transplant patients at 1-year posttransplantation.MeasurementsKidney failure risk as measured by the KFRE (eGFR, urine ACR, age, and sex).MethodsWe included all adult patients who had at least 1 serum creatinine and at least 1 urine ACR measurement approximately 1 year following kidney transplantation. The performance of the KFRE was evaluated using the area under the receiver operating characteristic curve (C-statistic). C-statistics from the 4 cohorts were meta-analyzed using random-effects models.ResultsA total of 3659 patients were included. Pooled C-statistics were good in the entire population, at 0.81 (95% confidence interval: 0.72-0.91) for the 2-year KFRE and 0.73 (0.67-0.80) for the 5-year KFRE. Discrimination improved among patients with poorer kidney function (eGFR < 45 mL/min/1.73 m2), with a C-statistic of 0.88 (0.78-0.98) for the 2-year KFRE and 0.83 (0.74-0.91) for the 5-year KFRE.LimitationsThe KFRE does not predict episodes of acute rejection and there was heterogeneity between cohorts.ConclusionsThe KFRE accurately predicts kidney failure in kidney transplant recipients at 1-year posttransplantation. Further validation in larger cohorts with longer follow-up times can strengthen the case for clinical implementation.

Project description:Clinical kidney biopsies variably contain cortex and medulla depending on biopsy depth and angle. Therefore, biopsy composition may alter the transcriptional profile and confound conclusions drawn from differential gene expression analysis. To account for this in retrieval biopsies, we assessed differences in gene expression between paired cortex and medulla samples in n=5 human kidneys.

Project description:Thrombocytopenia-associated multiple organ failure (TAMOF) is a clinical phenotype that encompasses a spectrum of syndromes associated with disseminated microvascular thromboses, such as the thrombotic microangiopathies thrombotic thrombocytopenic purpura/hemolytic uremic syndrome (TTP/HUS) and disseminated intravascular coagulation (DIC). Autopsies findings in TTP, HUS, or DIC reveal specific findings that can differentiate these 3 entities. Von Willebrand factor and ADAMTS-13 play a central role in TTP. Shiga toxins and the complement pathway are vital in the development of HUS. Tissue factor is the major protease that drives the pathology of DIC. Acute kidney injury (AKI) is a common feature in patients with TAMOF.
