Filter by:Banff classification stands as gold standard and international consensus for the identification, diagnosis and categorization of renal allograft pathology. In addition to multiple revision dedicated to the clarification and refinement of these diagnostic categories, a special attention is now dedicated to the development of automated protocols serving the use of artificial intelligence in digital pathology. To be integrated in the actual early post-transplant monitoring procedure, such original approach is considered to match various growing expectations of clinicians and pathologists regarding the future of transplant nephropathology : decrease inter-observer variability, reduce human errors and limit time-consuming analysis of kidney biopsy. Among these, an accelerated reading and access to Banff diagnostic criteria could help initiating both appropriate and immediate treatment to improve graft survival in kidney transplant recipients. Yet conventional histopathology still requires the preparation of a paraffin block, sections as well as subsequent colorations that altogether delay the final pathological diagnosis and urge the need for additional diagnostic modalities. Designed to overcome this critical limitation, the HARBOR study intends to test the performance of direct histopathological examination of fresh kidney biopsy with full-field optical coherence tomography for the identification of Banff elemental lesions and diagnostic categories.
The aim is to create an overview of the similarities and differences in daily practice among the different centers performing pediatric kidney transplantation in Europe. For this purpose, a Clinical Practice Snapshot will be used to provide insight in the current approaches.
This study aimed to determine the relationship between the quadratus lumborum and erector spinae plane block technique and the incidence and severity of chronic post-surgical pain in accordance with Brief Pain Inventory Score (BPI) in retroperitoneal laparoscopic living kidney donor surgery
This is a randomized, placebo controlled, double blind study to determine the effectiveness of a Transversus Abdominis Plane (TAP) block for reducing postoperative pain and opioid use in kidney transplant recipients.
PrOphylaxis With mEtformin to pREvent PTDM: a single site, placebo controlled, double blind randomised clinical trial evaluating the effectiveness of metformin to prevent post-transplant diabetes in a cohort of patients undergoing renal transplantation.
Accurate estimation of the glomerular filtration rate (GFR) is crucial for the management of kidney recipients, since it is the most predictive parameter of allograft failure that drives patient monitoring and decision-making. Standard and recent race-free GFR equations have been developed in native kidneys, but their performances in transplant kidney population remains unknown. We aimed at developing a kidney-transplant-specific GFR equation, and comparing its performance to standard GFR equations.
Kidney transplantation (KT) failure could be due to surgery dependent factors and particularly surgeon's experience. Objective: To assess the impact of the surgeon's experience on the post-operative outcomes to know if it safe for young surgeons to perform it.
The purpose of this study is to observe the safety and efficacy of Modigraf in de novo pediatric allograft liver and kidney transplantation recipients. This study will also monitor dose changes and tacrolimus whole blood trough levels of Modigraf based immunosuppression regimen.
The purpose of this study is to determine the pharmacokinetics of tacrolimus following oral administration of Modigraf, after the first oral dose and at steady state in pediatric participants undergoing de novo allograft liver or kidney transplantation. This study will also observe the safety and efficacy of Modigraf in de novo pediatric allograft liver and kidney transplantation recipients.
The investigators aimed to identify prognosis factors associated with in-hospital complications and assess the epidemiology, management, and outcomes of community-acquired pneumonia in a kidney transplant recipients' cohort. The investigators intend to identify each stay by a national database. Then they will be consulted by 2 clinicians to assert CAP clinical definition. After that radiographic evidence will be reviewed to validate CAP diagnoses. Then clinical data are collected in each center.
