Abstract
OBJECTIVES As the population ages, the number of people suffering from cardiovascular diseases (CVD) and diabetes mellitus (DM) increases. The coexistence of these diseases can affect the results of kidney transplantation (KT) in the elderly. The aim of this study was to analyze surgical and nonsurgical complications in the early period after KT and to identify the factors that influence their development in recipients aged ≥ 60 years compared to younger recipients < 60 years. METHODS One hundred seventy-five recipients of KT ≥ 60 years and 175 recipients of KT < 60 years who received kidneys from the same deceased donor were enrolled into the study. The incidence of surgical and nonsurgical complications, factors that may influence their development, early graft function, and patient and kidney-graft survival were analyzed during a 3-month follow-up period. Donor sources complied with the Helsinki Congress and Istanbul Declaration and organs were not procured from prisoners and individuals who were coerced or paid. RESULTS Older recipients were characterized by higher body mass index ± SD (26.1 ± 3.5 vs 24.7 ± 3.4 kg/m2) and suffered more often from pretransplant DM (20.6% vs 11.4%) and CVD (34.3% vs 10.3%) and less frequently underwent previous KT (6.3% vs 20.0%). There were no differences between the ≥ 60 year old and < 60 year old groups in reference to surgical (20.6% vs 24%) and nonsurgical complications (28.6% vs 27.4%), early graft function, serum creatinine, and proteinuria. Recipients (95.4% vs 97.1%) and kidney-graft survival (93.1% vs 95.4%) were similar in both groups. The recipient factors that influenced the development of infectious complications were age, dialysis duration, pretransplant DM, and CVD. CONCLUSIONS Despite higher co-incidence of CVD and DM, the risk of surgical and nonsurgical complications in elderly recipients is comparable to younger recipients in the early period after KT.

Donor biomarkers as predictors of organ use and recipient survival after neurologically deceased donor organ transplantation. J Crit Care 2018; 48:42-47. [PMID: 30172032 DOI: 10.1016/j.jcrc.2018.08.013] [Citation(s) in RCA: 11] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.8] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/16/2018] [Revised: 07/05/2018] [Accepted: 08/14/2018] [Indexed: 02/01/2023]
Abstract
PURPOSE We sought to build prediction models for organ transplantation and recipient survival using both biomarkers and clinical information. MATERIALS AND METHODS We abstracted clinical variables from a previous randomized trial (n = 556) of donor management. In a subset of donors (n = 97), we measured two candidate biomarkers in plasma at enrollment and just prior to explantation. RESULTS Secretory leukocyte protease inhibitor (SLPI) was significant for predicting liver transplantation (C-statistic 0.65 (0.53, 0.78)). SLPI also significantly improved the predictive performance of a clinical model for liver transplantation (integrated discrimination improvement (IDI): 0.090 (0.009, 0.210)). For other organs, clinical variables alone had strong predictive ability (C-statistic >0.80). Recipient 3-years survival was 80.0% (71.9%, 87.0%). Donor IL-6 was significantly associated with recipient 3-years survival (adjusted Hazard Ratio (95%CI): 1.26(1.08, 1.48), P = .004). Neither clinical variables nor biomarkers showed strong predictive ability for 3-year recipient survival. CONCLUSIONS Plasma biomarkers in neurologically deceased donors were associated with organ use. SLPI enhanced prediction within a liver transplantation model, whereas IL-6 before transplantation was significantly associated with recipient 3-year survival. Clinicaltrials.gov: NCT00987714.
