Kidney transplant

  1. MuST AKT was feasible and acceptable in a pilot trial
    MuST AKT pilot trial tests structured intervention to increase living donor kidney transplants through multidisciplinary support and social network engagement.
  2. Wait time policy increased transplant rates for Black candidates
    Quasi-experimental evaluation of wait time modification policy effects on Black kidney transplant candidates, addressing race-based kidney function estimation bias in allocation algorithms.
  3. Mild AKI in elderly kidney donors did not worsen graft outcomes
    Kidney transplantation from elderly donors with mild acute kidney injury yields comparable graft survival and function to non-AKI donors, supporting expanded utilization in recipient selection.
  4. Machine learning and Monte Carlo methods were used to model late eGFR in kidney transplant recipients
    Machine learning models combined with Monte Carlo simulation predict late kidney transplant function using tacrolimus pharmacokinetics and clinical parameters.
