Abstract
BACKGROUND Sodium-glucose cotransporter-2 inhibitors (SGLT2is) have cardioprotective and renoprotective effects. However, experience with SGLT2is in diabetic kidney transplant recipients (DKTRs) is limited. METHODS This observational multicentre study was designed to examine the efficacy and safety of SGLT2is in DKTRs. The primary outcome was adverse effects within 6 months of SGLT2i treatment. RESULTS Among 339 treated DKTRs, adverse effects were recorded in 26%, the most frequent (14%) being urinary tract infection (UTI). In 10%, SGLT2is were suspended mostly because of UTI. Risk factors for developing a UTI were a prior episode of UTI in the 6 months leading up to SGLT2i use {odds ratio [OR] 7.90 [confidence interval (CI) 3.63-17.21]} and female sex [OR 2.46 (CI 1.19-5.03)]. In a post hoc subgroup analysis, the incidence of UTI emerged as similar in DKTRs treated with SGLT2i for 12 months versus non-DKTRs (17.9% versus 16.7%). Between baseline and 6 months, significant reductions were observed in body weight [-2.22 kg (95% CI -2.79 to -1.65)], blood pressure, fasting glycaemia, haemoglobin A1c [-0.36% (95% CI -0.51 to -0.21)], serum uric acid [-0.44 mg/dl (95% CI -0.60 to -0.28)] and urinary protein:creatinine ratio, while serum magnesium [+0.15 mg/dl (95% CI 0.11-0.18)] and haemoglobin levels rose [+0.44 g/dl (95% CI 0.28-0.58]. These outcomes persisted in participants followed over 12 months of treatment. CONCLUSIONS SGLT2is in kidney transplant offer benefits in terms of controlling glycaemia, weight, blood pressure, anaemia, proteinuria and serum uric acid and magnesium. UTI was the most frequent adverse effect. According to our findings, these agents should be prescribed with caution in female DKTRs and those with a history of UTI.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Many European countries have transplant programmes with controlled donors after cardiac death (cDCD). Twenty-two centres are part of GEODAS group. We analysed clinical results from a nephrological perspective. METHODS Observational, retrospective and multicentre study with systematic inclusion of all kidney transplant recipients from cDCD, following local protocols regarding extraction and immunosuppression. RESULTS A total of 335 cDCD donors (mean age 57.2 years) whose deaths were mainly due to cardiovascular events were included. Finally, 566 recipients (mean age 56.5 years; 91.9% first kidney transplant) were analysed with a median of follow-up of 1.9 years. Induction therapy was almost universal (thymoglobulin 67.4%; simulect 32.8%) with maintenance with prednisone-MMF-tacrolimus (91.3%) or combinations with mTOR (6.5%). Mean cold ischaemia time (CIT) was 12.3h. Approximately 3.4% (n=19) of recipients experienced primary non-function, essentially associated with CIT (only CIT ≥ 14 h was associated with primary non-function). Delayed graft function (DGF) was 48.8%. DGF risk factors were CIT ≥ 14 h OR 1.6, previous haemodialysis (vs. peritoneal dialysis) OR 2.1 and donor age OR 1.01 (per year). Twenty-one patients (3.7%) died with a functioning graft, with a recipient and death-censored graft survival at 2-years of 95% and 95.1%, respectively. The estimated glomerular filtration rate at one year of follow-up was 60.9 ml/min. CONCLUSIONS CIT is a modifiable factor for improving the incidence of primary non-function in kidney transplant arising from cDCD. cDCD kidney transplant recipients have higher delayed graft function rate, but the same patient and graft survival compared to brain-dead donation in historical references. These results are convincing enough to continue fostering this type of donation.

Abstract
Hyperparathyroidism (HPT) is common in patients on dialysis, and parathyroidectomy (PTx) is often required. We present a retrospective, descriptive analysis of data corresponding to 148 patients on dialysis undergoing PTx due to severe refractory HPT (PTH 1401 +/- 497 pg/mL, Ca 10.6 +/- 0.8 mg/dL, P 6.9 +/- 1.7 mg/dL). Demographic data were compared with those recorded in 309 patients on dialysis not subjected to PTx who were managed at the same hospital. In the PTx group, the factors age (49.3 +/- 14 years), male gender (48.6%), and diabetes (0.7%) were significantly lower than in the non-PTx group (61.5 +/- 14.9 years, male gender 59%, diabetes 19.4%), while time on dialysis was longer (8.6 +/- 5.8 vs. 5.5 +/- 5.4 years). In 129 of the study patients (87.4%), four or more glands were identified, and total PTx plus autotransplantation (AT) in the forearm was performed. In the remaining 19 patients, two to three glands were identified, and AT was not undertaken. Four of the 19 patients were successfully operated on again for persistent HPT, seven showed PTH levels <250 pg/mL, and eight maintained severe HPT. Perioperative complications included one death due to cardiac insufficiency, two repeat operations due to bleeding, and one patient with chronic hoarseness. Hospital stay was prolonged in 20% of patients due to a hungry bone syndrome. Among those patients with PTx and AT, HPT recurred in 21 patients (16.2%) at 3.1 +/- 2.3 years. In 13 of these patients, autograft was removed at 7.5 +/- 2.9 years. Serum calcium and phosphate levels improved after PTx, and these results were maintained for 5 years (9.6 +/- 0.8 and 4.2 +/- 1.2 mg/dL, respectively). In conclusion, PTx with AT is a safe option for the treatment of severe HPT that is accompanied by low morbidity and mortality and a good outcome. Medical treatment should not be prolonged at the expense of long repeated bouts of hypercalcemia and/or hyperphosphatemia with their irreversible consequences.
